My guess is not a word on how the team was put together and some sort of array of excuses on how Danny did as beat he could given the path paid out.


The reverse it who are you moving Hayward or Tatum? Maybe Smart? I would assume Walker isn't going anywhere and Brown can't be traded. So who are you moving in this blockbuster trade?


I agree with what hes saying but the awful take part is that the position Danny is in is because of Danny.

Hes left him self with no room to fix this squad and honestly that's bs because they have a good squad who should be a piece a way from legitimately contending in the east.

So it's a good squad but he needs to fix it because it's not good enough to contend but he can't because he put himself in this position?

We're top 5 in almost every metric. We lost Kyrie because he's a diva. We lost Al because he wanted too much money and left because of Kyrie. We lost Hayward because of a freak injury. Yet we're almost the youngest team in the NBA rocking a 35-15 record still having picks and you have the balls to question the GM? Be a fan of any of the other 25 bad run teams out there or shut up man.

Can't forget that this stuff keeps coming in until 3:20 or so. Unless Bulpett drops his signature move on us.

I hope your take's gonna be amazing. Surprise me.


He lost real players for free.

Awful


Uhm I see no plan man.. Nothing. Nada.

Every GM has lost a player for free so ALL YOU GM'S OUT THERE SUCK.



Danny lost ALL ability to maneuver within the cap when he lost not one but two max guys already on the roster for nothing.

Especially with jaylen brown new contract this is going to be an impossible thing to overcome.

I dont have a plan to fix what Danny broke. And I'm not being paid millions of dollars to figure it out either.

Danny Ainge after deadline: "We're just starting to get healthy, about to get Rob back, Gordon playing great. We're comfortable with our current roster."

Thank Red we didn't give Horford that deal.

If we get bounced in the 2nd round without Bertans, Bertans wasn't winning us the Finals.

My guess is not a word on how the team was put together and some sort of array of excuses on how Danny did as beat he could given the path paid out.

I.E. critical analysis.


Losing Horford for nothing was the issue. Not given him 3 extra years.

Sont put sugar on **** cause its still ****.

Wait a minute. How would you have handled the Horford situation differently? Seriously?

- Traded him before he became an FA? To who?
- Matched the contract Philly offered him? Blech.

Propose an alternative. What's your plan? Saying we would have done "something" is not critical analysis.

I'm just here to watch the responses to Danny Ainge not making moves because the "prices were too high"
