If we can get something for him, great. If not, then addition by subtraction .. to an extent.

Roziers next if he’s thinking he’s getting more than $12M/yr.

Oh, its coming. Id guess that a lot of our guys couldnt wait to spill the beans on the bull **** Kyrie did last year.


And I'm sure those guys are the same ones (Rozier and Brown) that wouldn't accept their roles this year despite being horribly inefficient players.

LIke Kyrie was the star of efficiency when we needed him the most. He quit on us dealt with it. Ainge will try to bring him back but the reality is that he’s gone.

Kyrie probably **** talked the organization. Celtics continue to be a LeBron's Mercy.

For the first time today, I feel less confident about the AD deal.

Kyrie making it public he is gone, with or without AD as Celtics gain leverage?

Kyrie, LeBron, media, and Klutch are DELIBERATELY sabbotaging the Celtics. Filthy. Danny, get AD. Don't back down. The assumption is that the Lakers are getting AD.

Kyrie **** us, and helps get AD to the Lakers, leaving us defeated. Oh well, gotta potentially take this loss in the AD war. Danny's master plan of 8 years, destroyed by his father, LeBron, and his son Kyrie.

Lol

You view losing Kyrie and AD as a bad thing...I think the opposite.

Boston isn't built to win now. Pairing Davis and Irving never would have made us better than Toronto or Golden State...

Maybe we should start by paying and playing people that have an actual vested interest in playing for this team and in this city. No more ass kissing these divas


I am with you.

Even when struggling in the playoffs, Kyrie was still more efficient than all the young guys. Look at the stats.

He shot 38/31/90 is incredible efficiency to go with his stellar defense

Of the Celtics 8 rotation players (played more than 100 minutes in playoffs), Kyrie was 7th in effective FG% and true shooting %. Rozier was the only one worse than him. He shot really poorly. Don't know how people even defend that.

I think him watching Kyrie slowly fracture the locker room will be sufficient punishment.

It's a weird Flex. A lot of people aren't upset to see him go.

I would say that if he stayed, and Celtics didn't get Anthony Davis, 80 percent of fanbase would be unhappy.

So, careful what you wish for. Cat is a great talent, but he is moody as all hell. And, the team in Brooklyn won't be as good as the team he is leaving.

Idk why it's supposed to be upsetting now that we're getting real indication that he's going to do what we've known he was going to do for months now.

He doesn't want to be a Celtic. It is what it is. We aren't going to get where we want to go with players that don't want to be here, regardless of how talented they are.

Where did you see Kyrie say that he's gone?
