Daniel Theis Thread!!!

How many picks are the Celtics getting by taking on Theis' overpriced salary???

Gave up Dennis Schroder, Enes Freedom and Bruno Fernando. Salaries are about even, but yikes, Schro and Freedom are the two best players in the transaction. I'm not even sure that Theis is better than Fernando???

Lol hahahaha I can't even right now. We trade him for mo and Kornet because he was to expensive and then we give up way more to get him back. Seems about right. Even though I like thies alot. I'm going to chalk this up to ainge screwing us over before leaving.

Ime is on the hotseat now. If he doesn't give Theis enough love I expect Brad will fire him and return to the bench next year to ensure the greatest screener in sports history gets the the full 40mins a night he deserves.

Brad got gang raped today… we send out out 7 guys and get back 2 plus no first round pick . Wow

So who fills all these open roster spots?

Brad basically took back a horrible contract--$28 million for the next three seasons for a back-up in decline and is now all but untradeable unless we include draft picks.

Why didn't Brad get at least one no. 1 pick from Houston for taking on this horrendous contract? It is absurd.

So much for the great concern about the salary cap and delaying the onset of the repeater tax.

Keith Smith noted that Brad has a great reputation with the other GMs for not driving a hard bargain when he negotiates, unlike bad old Danny was reputed to always do.

This deal was certainly one Danny would have never made.

Brad is not officially on speed dial for every GM in the NBA when they want to make a deal.

Dave Cowens is the greatest screener in Sports History.

I know it seems like we gave up too much for what the return was, but I really don’t think we lost anything that mattered. Theis was really underrated when he was here previously, and White is a very good young player. Quality>quantity

This trade doesn't involve star player so it's not going to get covered very much, but this is arguably one of the worst trades in Celtics history.

I was happy when the Celtics got rid off Theis. Just too small against most bigs. He does create lanes for Tatum and Brown to drive to the basket though.

Rob/Horfy/Theis triple big line up coming your way soon

Yes, Theis has to play ~25 mins a game or Ime gone.

Garnett, Pierce(although Paul needs to work, he's let himself go a bit since retiring) and Sam Hauser.

Quite obviously this is untrue or else Brad would have done one of these imaginary deals.

and lol at "PLUS Kanter". Dude was immediately cut.
