Smart/pritchard
Brogdon/white
Brown/grantW
Tatum/Gallinari
Timelord/Horford

Makes the most sense to me.

Lots of playmakers in the starting lineup and more shooting than last season. All switchable defenders too.

Pritchard is the weakest player in the top 10 guys.

Using this as a guideline, it appears Boston needs another wing 3 type. . we have 2 PF types off the bench and combo guards. Even if we included Hauser and Begarin, we have no 3s..

I refuse to put Stevens into the HOF until he completes this mission..

What is dogwater? Context clues tell me it's not good, but still I'm curious.

Yeah, that kind of sucks they went this route. I know he can have moments here and there, but you know he's never going to be a big 3pt threat really to make up for his shortcomings. Don't know why the rush without exploring other options including some that could potentially still come available.

Begarin and Davison probably have a real shot at making this year’s team

I assume they’ll want Davidson playing every night, so he could be a two way guy.

I know many/most of these picks will be late rounders, but getting Kessler (he'll approximate some of Gobert's production) plus 4 first rounders and other players they can move for even more assets is peak Ainge. If only he could get someone else to actually make the picks

Yeah his track record of hitting on picks with high draft picks is so bad. Oh wait...

rent free. Imagine thinking those MIN picks will be "high draft picks" lmao.

It’s “rent free” when someone responds to a post that you submitted on an online forum? That’s quite the take buddy.

And considering they’re first rounders in 2027 and 2029 (5 and 7 yrs away) it’s hard to predict but Gobert is already in middle of his prime so yes if I had to bet they would be high draft picks. Not sure how that’s “lmao” but keep doing you do buddy

I know I'm on repeat, but, especially with a tweet like this, why Kornet over Giles? Sure I'll get arguments about Kornet being better than Giles. That may be and may continue to be in the future. But especially if they sign another big, Kornet is not going to play anything other than garbage time. If things are THAT serious where you don't lose because Kornet saved the day, I'm 100% positive you can sign a Kornet level impact big in buyout season and you likely sign Giles to a pretty heavily non-guaranteed contract. I don't get it.

(This in absolutely NO way drops my enthusiasm for the overall plan execution to an unsatisfied level, lol)

is there any possible way the c’s can move tatum for durant? this is the move i’d love to see as i’ve always viewed tatum as a fraud. durant in tatums place makes the celts favorites to win it all at least for the next 3 seasons. with brogdon and durant being as talented as they are, it’s more important to have the talent/dog combo that brown possesses over tatum who has no dog, and if he’s any better talent wise over brown, it’s so marginal that it’s not noticeable.

Giles is hurt 97.3% of the time. Sad but true

Kornet is on a non-guaranteed deal and Harry Giles is atrocious. Provides nothing on the court lol. I don’t like Mornet but he’s at least a 7 footer

Korny better be great for chemistry. I don't mind wasting spots after what POBO has done so far, BUT I'd rather we waste it on fresh blood that we have no clue if he'll be playable.

Yes, I'm miffed because I want another guy I can put hope into, I want a imagined steal to become real. :lol:

That's not Korny, sadly.
