Honestly I think Afam has our entire group of posters on his ignore list. He’s essentially blogging at this point.

Kemba #1

Carsen Edwards and Ziggy Jitterbug or whatever pick #51 is named can fight for 2/3

Come on man I am super negative but this is a great outcome considering we were staring down the barrel losing Irving and having Rozier running the show.



WTF? JB telling someone to be a little positive?

Great moment on this board.

Hard to see us going into next season with rookies and RWIII as 7th-10th men.

We should have a good shot at some of the bigs that will go for vet min deals. We have a lot of talent but none at the 5. So we have a bigger role for those guys than say the Lakers.

I guess this is why he got a summer league invite so the Celtics can find out live.


It's more likely that glass will break Tacko Fall.

Seems like a nice kid, super tall, but he's like a destitute man's Hasheem Thabeet.

I'd love to be proven wrong, but I won't be.

Me, at the start of offseason: My one wish is for the Celtics to get a 6'7" PG to replace Kyrie so we can defend better.
Also me, after Cs land Kemba:

Definitely hard to see. -- We're thin at Big, and thin at PG.
Smart doesn't strike me as a Primary Guard; doesn't matter the Unit. He's more like a Combo-Guard.

Also could give us a salary to send in a possible mid-season trade for an upgrade/star.

Afam, I'll hook you up with some Kemba highlight vids and articles why he will be a good fit. Just say the word. No championship promises though. We need more all-stars for that. But at least we won't be miserable watching games next season. Hopefully.

Hold on Tacko isn’t weak. He is 300 pounds.

But, he also is nowhere near Thabeet for talent.

So, if Thabeet is your ceiling, enjoy Maine.

Reminder, although this admittedly could change soon:

At the moment, there's nothing stopping the scenario in which Kyrie moves on, Kemba replaces him, and both Horford and Baynes are back. It would likely be expensive, in terms of cash and picks alike, but it's quite doable.

This Kid has got to be really brittle? -- 7'6"-7'7".
He doesn't seem to have much sideways strength.
