This is so random. I think hes going for a record on how many teams he can play on in shortest amount of time.


I think he's using Miami threat to go to Houston.
Sixers have no incentive to do S&T with Rockets if it's just between 76ers and Rockets for Butler

Wasn’t there a tweet that he hasn’t scheduled any meetings yet as well? If he has only one team in mind, I’m sure that would had leaked as well. There’s not a lot known about Horford’s situation to be honest. In a week where there has been dozens of leaks that is odd to me. There’s more to this than we think I’m guessing.

It's a million times better than what we were thinking a day ago, and it could all fall apart, but that kind of stings. Wish we could have just traded Kyrie for Kemba last offseason in 20/20 hindsite. I wonder in that alternate universe does Ainge trade Tatum for AD?


Eh, AD wasn't happening regardless. The first does sting a bit, but oh well. Things could be worse.


IDK, if Kyrie had stayed and AD still said, you can trade for me but I'm not resigning, I think Ainge still would have. The overall risk on things seems to be about the same if you replace Kyrie with Kemba.

Dunno. All I know is apparently the Kings are backing up the Brinks truck for him and I don't think we are.

So if all this engineering is not for Horford, then it would have to be for Morris, no?

The MLE is going to be used for Kanter or similar type player.

Can someone explain what holding a FA's rights means? So by doing this 3 team sign & trade we keep Horford's / Morris's rights?

Ugh, let's hope not.

I think it's just about the full MLE and that we'll balk if we have to give anything of real value.

I thought that also. But Horford not taking meetings today made me wonder. Could he be waiting to see if Boston can pull it off, so that he can talk contract with us again? What other reason does he have to not take meetings today?

Woj says it’s for the MLE. Normally I would say that’s a lot of work for another 5 million, but we are incredibly thin at the 5 right now with no Horford. My dream is that it is for Horford and the MLE, but we will see.

BY doing a 3 Team sign and trade we don’t have to open up cap space to sign Kemba, so we don’t have to renounce Horford and Morris’ rights. Having their rights means we can go over the salary cap to re-sign them.

Dan is the man (w/Zarren of course) if he can pull this off.

Would make a lot more sense to use an under the cap team.

We would keep their bird rights so we can sign them to whatever contract value (up to their max) if they would like to stay.

Would be shocking if that was not leaked by now if that were true. Everything is getting leaked right now, but somehow the Horford mystery agreement hasn’t? I doubt it tbh, but we will see.

Celtics

I'd counter offer Yabs (or Langford) + Memphis pick + a Second round pick for Sabonis.

I'd make an offer to the Hawks for Alex Len if the Pacers wouldn't bite.
