Danny prefers the buyout market situation this season to anything offered him. Thus no trade.

What happened to Poirier getting his jersey signed by guys on the team ? Thought he was going to another team.

Think the best trade was Minnesota acquiring DAR for Wiggins.

Yup. If you think he's isn't going to make his picks then I'm afraid that I've got some bad news. :lol: :lol:

I cannot get upset about this. Stuff happens in the summer. Not the deadline.

Grab a buyout guy and we'll do a couple rounds of the playoffs. By then, hopefully we'll have a guy or two on the roster we can move for a talent upgrade at a single position.
The most charitable interpretation is that it's ethnic cleansing and massive war crimes.

Too many people are acting like we're one move away from the title this season when we're not.

Other than that deal, a bunch of minor impact for contenders. Not sure Miami is much better honestly. Same for Clippers. Lots of shrug.

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


Danny had already gone on record and said he should of made trades last year.

It's not a **** surprise that Horford and the Sixers are having the same issues we had last year

Both russel and wiggins traded today.

Horford and Irving would of been easy guys to move last year and you know it

No, I don't. I was always in the Horford-is-overpaid camp.

My positions may be wrong, but at least they're consistent.


Then you're as clueless as danny.

Cant help you with that

I'd put the Rockets and Lakers ahead of the Celtics for him. If LeBron wants him then he's going to sign. Rich Paul will guide him to LA.
