Wanna talk about destroying an entire future?

Heard Ian Thompson say tonight that NO needs to know AD and Danny has the assets to trade for him. Then he said Danny needs to tell them all the time. Herschel Walker.

Then he says what we all know, it was a 5 for 1 trade that.....started the Cowboys dynasty.

What a horrible idea. Pretty sure the Cowboys got the best end of that deal and in this scenario NO would be the Cowboys.

Which team would most want to be? I know where I stand.

Very I think
You are thinking of Sam Amick from USA Today, I think. Sam Amico is dreadful when it comes to most stuff, but he does cover CLE more regularly and may have a better hit rate on them. Celtics related I know he's a BS artist who has been wrong a bunch. He's also claiming "Celtics gunning to make a serious run" for PG13 now too, but take that with a grain of salt until you see it elsewhere.

It'd be a hell of a win for cleveland if they could unload their entire bench to indy and start over

A source described the Cavs’ interest in George as “legit,” but added that actually pulling off a deal could be “very complicated.”

There is also the matter of the Boston Celtics, who appear set to offer some of their many first-round draft picks in their quest for George. The Celtics own the No. 1 overall pick this year — although a reported swap with the Philadelphia 76ers is expected to move the Celtics’ selection to third.

The Celtics also own multiple first-round picks in the 2018 and 2019 drafts.

Get it done, Danny!

I'd be shocked if Danny doesn't DO something. What if Cleveland wins? What if he decides to stay? What if Lebron decides to stay? Kyrie is 25, George is 27. Our future "plans" could still be facing a juggernaut in Cleveland. Paul George at the wing, Kyrie the scoring Guard, and Lebron adapting to a dominant power forward will dominate anything we can toss at them for the next 7 years I think.

Jaylen, Hayward/Blake, #3 pick, and a top 5 player next year probably wont get that done. By the time those players are coming into their prime, Kyrie will be like 31, Lebron will be 38-39. Tim Duncsn still averaged 19 when he was up there, Lebron will still dominate. George will be 33. And they would be q vet team. This is risky

Unless Indy really wants Love, which they may value, then no.

It is. And it's not that hard to do. Tax implications would be scary though.

Bulpett always and I mean always says it's coming. Just not now. It's coming being patient.

Dude has never broken a story and isn't anything more than may be a mouthpiece.

I actually hate the guy due to his many useless appearances on sports tonight

So no doubt the Celtics are searching the NBA galaxy for a deal — and that’s in addition to the efforts they’ll be making in free agency in a couple of weeks. In the trade department, Jimmy Butler is still an attractive name, but with Paul George letting the Pacers know he’ll opt out next summer and leave, most likely for the Lakers, the C’s might want to take a stronger flyer on bringing him to Boston with the hope that a year in the system can make him want to stay.


Not a total wet blanket

Return to Boston Celtics
