Where did Milsap go?


Same place every other FA went this offseason: NOT Boston.

Hey, Kanter technically kinda sorta chose us, in a purely bookkeeping way.

I mean he's dead so unless there's space spores bringing him back to life he's not walking through that door.

All right, now that's the kind of positivity I like!

We don't quit while there's still unexplored possibilities. Tell me more about these space spores.

Reports are that Hayward wanted to go to Indiana and Indiana was willing to deal Turner. Ainge could have moved Turner for an asset or 2, if he didn't want him.
Oh. And also reported on election night trump won. Then they kept counting.

Perhaps he goes to Indy for $15-20m less, if Ainge didn't try to gut the roster.

Serious question for all those who are still “Team Ainge”:

What moves can he still make that you would consider an improvement for this team and a step towards title contention?

No joke, I’m genuinely interested in hearing what the opposite side of the fanbase has to say.

Am I'll admit Danny has been a little bit gun shy, tbh, I also have no idea how he values guys such as Milsap and whoever else was signed. I thought Jae would've been a pretty good target, if he was willing to come back.
Good assessment:

PSA: Just because a player is large it doesn't mean he is a good player and we should sign him. These dudes would just sit on the bench.

Danny Ainge did blow it. Pacers beat writer for The Athletic said Hayward was willing to go to Indiana for 100 million 4 years but Celtics wouldn’t do the deal Turner and Mcdermitt


If that is the truth, Danny should go. It's never going to be leaked, though. It would never come out like that. Although, Danny doesn't have his mouthpiece Bulpett anymore, so someone else will have to leak damage control.

Myles Turner would of been really good for Boston.

Front court is really thing right now with only Theis. Can’t count on both Williams or Tacko

Maybe he was concerned he was making the Pacers a better team in their own conference. It’s a valid concern but he should have done it anyway.

Whiteside was good at one point and Drummond had promise, both are pretty bad right now when you look into their advanced stats.


They're both hella overrated but I'd take Whiteside on a cheap deal if I had to choose one, at the very least he's better than Kanter.

The bench was one of the worst in the league last year. Who the hell would Brad play over Milsap? On second thought Milsap wasn't developed by Boston Celtics University. You're probably right. Guys outside the program don't get love once they come into the program.

Just offer Ibaka a deal he can't refuse and be done with it.

So pacers are sitting on cap space to sign players to 30 million s year and have done nothing..ok
