The irony of them being completely useless while Houston is using the same 2nd rounders to help build their roster.


What roster? Like I said yesterday, how much value do second rounders have when it cost you 4 of them for a bum like jae crowder.

They're absolutely useless.


Didn't we trade a couple seconds for Derrick White? They are more valuable than pick swaps anymore easily

Why doesn't the money work if the Celtics and a fourth team that wants Brogdon join the Heat and Blazers in the Lillard trade?

We traded a first and a first round pick swap.

That's not a 1 to 1. Washington had to eat that loss because they signed him to a ridiculous contract AND gave him a full no trade clause.

Lotta money for two guards....


Unless I am mistaken, does this mean Murray can not be traded for at least 6 months since he just extended??

If so, one less JB trade possible.. yeah yeah, I know.. we are keeping JB :nonono: :noway:
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Not reliable when he's injured in the playoffs every year


He played almost as many minutes as Herro did this postseason

Wow. This is the roster Brad is moving forward with? I'm not sure what else is realistically out there now that Murray is gone, but smoothing out the edges of what we got I really don't think is going to cut it imo, esp with Joe as coach.

DFS? Royce? Need more.

Yeah, Team Lillard is bluffing. But if not Dame, what other big and gettable player might be an option here post the Smart/Porzi move? Trae? KAT?

Video clip is weeks old, and the caption provided in the tweet itself does not reflect what's said in the clip. Pure nonsense.

What’s people’s issues with it? I mean, those guys are worse than Grant who couldn’t get off the bench last year when they had fewer All-Star big men than they have now.

losing the toughness of smart & grant is being overrated by a lot of pundits. how about the horrible shot selection and decision making by both of those players? if anything, we won't be blowing as many big leads now

The SAME people hear out of Dame's OWN mouth, all REPORTS say it, all the top scoop guys say it, and HIS AGENT said that he doesn't want to be there and doesn't like Boston the city, but yall would give anything for Brad to bring him in anyway!

COMEDY! Stop trying to cloak your disdain for brown with made up things but willingly bend over backwards to ignore it in Dame's case.


Some of the Jaylen hate is insane.

It definitely is, although it helps me identify who doesn't know basketball well though.
