Also like Theis, he would have pretty good Reg season numbers but would be a liability in the playoffs.

I also, finally want to see what R Williams can do in a extended Role. Either get an upgrade like Gobert, M Turner, or draft a young talent with Upside. OO, Precious, Nnaji, D Oturu or even Paul Reed. Or just let R Williams get an increased min per and let Theis come off the bench where he is better suited.

100% agree with you. Never liked Baynes, he gets dunked on more than blocks shot of the opponents but I thought Baynes was going to retire after Ja Morant ended his career

Wow he gets dunked on.....ok? he’d be a great addition

Since you are a supporter of getting Baynes, then my question is for you is, who loses out at center? or does Boston go with a 3 man rotation again? And does that mean Boston No longer drafts a center? If they did they would have 4 centers.

Not picking on your opinion. just wondering how this is supposed to play out.

The Comedian intel + Tatum photo has given me too much hope for him to come back :lol:

I still think he ends up with a team like the Clippers, but you never know. Also, still fascinated to see where this Hayward stuff ends up, I know you said he's a goner via trade and the Hawks insiders seem to agree with you on that, but I hope we can at least get something back for him.

1st of all Robert Williams hasn’t even shown that he can stay healthy longer than 10 games stretches- that’s to start. Secondly, I couldn’t careless if Boston drafts a center and never imagined that that’s a prerequisite for this draft and don’t think they would if adding Baynes was in the cards.

Further more Between Baynes being banned up or being maintenances throughout the season we could easily find time for all 3

Um , when you play the 5 and guards are getting blown by, you get dunked on. Overall our defense was incredible with baynes at the 5 regardless if Horford was on the floor or not. his ability to switch and play the pick and roll was amazing for a man that size and he did good at staying between the man and hoop on big guys like embiid.

People who get Secret Service protection also have Secret Service codenames, which they choose for themselves from an approved list.

President-Elect Joe Biden's chosen code name is ... "Celtic".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Service_code_name#2020

By the way, these code names are rarely funny. But the McCain family were exceptions, with Cindy McCain being "Parasol" and three McCain kids being "Popeye", "Pebbles", and "Peter Sellers". And Todd Palin went with the double entendre "Driller".

Looks like we will get Giannis for pennies as soon as next season, Jaylen should be close to ending his career with as many times as he's dunked on him already! Dunk in his grill one more time and he'll have to start wearing Jaylen Brown Jr. jerseys. 8-)

Forget dunked on .... he is dealing with too many injuries; I believe he is going to be 34 next year. Not a great addition...

Yet half of you want to give everything to Williams whose been even more injury plagued thus far in his career. Baynes is tough, physical, sets great screens, can shoot, switch if needed and in a jam and has a good IQ and his teammates love him

He’s a great addition and there’s a reason why us, Houston, clippers, lakers, Miami, have interest because people who know basketball know he’s a valuable add particularly for what he’ll likely get paid - they don’t look at YouTube videos and say “He GeT DuNkEd On MuSt B bAd”

If you're going with youth at center make a run at Wiseman and offer Minnesota your entire draft Langford and future picks. Hes more of the answer than say Time Lord.

If you want to keep status quo and stay on the treadmill then Baynes is a must.

Celts17Pride · Post #495 » by **Celts17Pride** » Sat Nov 7, 2020 3:10 pm

Draft in 11 days
Free Agency in about 14 days
Training Camp in about 23-30 days
Season in 45 days

Things will be happening at a fast and furious pace.

Let’s Go Celtics!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No shot, we gotta give him the Full MLE at least to get him.

Also I just thought of this, but if Hayward leaves and we get Baynes, we should think about trading RWIII for a wing IMO

Nope. I just said that those who know more than both of us from pretty well managed teams all want Baynes- and their research probably goes past YouTube clips of a player getting dunked. Where you fall in between is not for me to decide.
