I just looked at the Hornets roster.

Lee may have something to work with this season.

Oshae headed overseas. Not surprised. I wish him well over there. Should get plenty of playing time, rather than riding the bench in the NBA..

Half kidding, there should be an overseas all-star game featuring former Celtics vs non-former Celtics lol.

Former Celtics:
Vincent Poirier
Shane Larkin
Oshae Brissett
Carsen Edwards
Semi Ojeleye
Jabari Parker
Juancho Hernangomez
Bruno Fernando
Evan Fournier
Jonas Jerebko
Tremont Waters
Tacko Fall

There's probably others too..

I feel vindicated in never liking Marcus. Hopefully he is a net negative for the Lakers.

I believe part of the reason why Kyrie left is because of Smart.

From everything I’ve heard/read it was Rozier. Which is why Danny also offloaded him to Charlotte and why Al left. The order of blame for that debacle is probably Ainge Rozier Kyrie. Smart was an idiot but I don’t think he helped push Kyrie out at all.

Smart drove Kyrie out of town? That's just another reason to love the guy.

Rozier was a huge hugeeeeeeeee loser in the 18-19 season but putting blame, Kyrie is #1 and it's not close. Like Ainge and Rozier deserve huge blame but Kyrie's leadership and waffling about committing and quitting in a playoff series makes him easily #1

Kyrie playing up his Native American heritage tells us all you need to know about him. Has anyone heard anything since? I am guessing no.
