The Utah Jazz are trading center Damian Jones to the Cleveland Cavaliers, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. The Cavs are absorbing Jones' $2.6 million contract.

How many Centers do the Cavs need?

Hope they don’t pay up lol. Honestly don’t know what “pay up” would even mean for Miami though.

Outside of bam and Jimmy, they don't have enough player collateral. Robinson is a negative. At the very least, herro lowry and all the 1sts right? Unprotected

Guess we aren’t doing anything else. Not that I’m not happy with the KP move but I was expecting at least one other move for and additional big or a point

Well this has been real and fun but not real fun.
I'm not sure we can really do anything else.
Slim chance on trading can't will, brogdon or pp at this point and then we can't sign anyone with the mle and basically can't even sign a vet minimum guy either we're definitely leaving a roster spot open imo I believe the only thing left is to look to summer league and start guessing who the 2ways are going to be.
white,brown,Tatum, timelord,unicorn
Pp, brogdon, brissett,huaser, horford
JD?, Champagnei, Walsh, open roster spot , kornet
I'll guess bodon and olec as the two ways I don't think we will sign a third one. This Celtics regime forgot about mader and begarin. Is that team good enough to win it all ? I don't think so but who knows

That is not coaching. That is luck.
We don't have to build a team to beat Miami.

If tatum didnt sprain his ankle
If brown didnt suck
If horford averaged 40 ppg
If joe wasnt a dumbasd

If
If
If
If

If ifs and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a merry christmas

Drafting walsh
Signing brisset

Miami has beaten us in 2 of our last 3 ECF berths. That sure is a lot of luck that we don't have to worry about isn't it?

We could lose the next 3 playoff series against miami and people would still claim they are nothing to worry about.
