Just listened to Shams interview with Spencer Dinwiddie.

Kyrie quit on us in December. He definitely poisoned our chances with AD. He completely and utterly **** us. Could not hate that guy more.

You’re underrating Winslow’s defense, upside and versatility and overrating Jaylen’s upside relative to fit. The 2021 draft is also very very good.



How could he possibly have more upside than brown? and relative to fit? Winslow had succes last year in Miami towards the end of the season playing point believe it or not.

I mean be low on brown but I’m talking about moving him for allstars not disappointments


I’ll pass on Winslow as well! I agree with this, you trade Brown for an all star, not some role player who reached his ceiling.

Are we done doing dumb trade ideas? I still have one in me...

2020 MEM 1st and 2020 MIL 1st to WAS
2020 BOS 1st to IND

Tatum turns into a top 15 player and Grant Williams turns into Draymond Green by All-Star Break and you have yourself a contender.

Kemba / Beal / Tatum / G.Williams / Turner
Smart / Edwards / Ojeleye / Theis / Kanter
Wanamaker / Langford / vet / Poirier

So..KD is a Net for 3 years and the first he’s out and the second he’s trying to return to form. The Nets only got KD for basically one year at maybe 100%?

By my math, Celtics are about $14.8M below the tax line with current 14-man roster. No threat of paying tax this year even with an unlikely major midseason trade.

EDIT: Cs would've been a tax team if Horford decided to stay and got paid close to what he's getting in Philly.

I wonder what the Clippers offer for Kyrie was. Couldn’t be too much, never count out the logo, but I don’t think Kyrie stays there.

I hate to rain on the Bradley Beal talk.......but we no longer have the most chips at the table. New Orleans and OKC have more trade chips than us now. Feels weird.

Don't underestimate the persuasive (or dissuasive in this case) power of the player nowadays. "I will only re-sign in Boston. Trade your assets at your own risk. But you're getting me as a rental."

We literally saw two stars pick their destinations this summer. Beal can easily nuke his value to non-Boston teams too.

Are OKC’s picks that good? Rockets and Heat won’t be that bad. I don’t know why Philly fans were so pumped about that Heat pick they had lol.

We'll see. To me, it's the quantity of picks that they can throw at teams. You can always sell them to the next team and sell it as currency for future trades.
