Keep your picks I guess, may as well build for 5+ years into the future, "win now" is a silly strategy

There is only one basketball.

we beat them with the ham and eggers last year and we've improved.

the games need to be played.

They won 73 and LOST the chip.

it's sport and anything can happen.

Or WHAT NOT.

I'll tell you what we shouldn't do. We shouldn't sign Barnes.

Use option Amir&Jerebko.
Sign back up for Bradley. (K.Martin & G.Henderson)
Save cap space.
Sorry for my English.

Wade for one year would be nice. Develop our young guys. The trade for Butler. Idk it doesnt matter Durant just ruined the league for the next two years and set/continued a precedent for you g kids to follow **** that ****.

He already signed an offer sheet with Dallas. Right?

Go get Jimmy Butler and DMC. Shoot. We are already second best team in east. Let's take a run at Lebron. We have a good team, not great, but still top 8 in NBA.

Truth is we just didn't have enough time. We got Al on Saturday and Durant just wasn't sure.

Why not grab Bogut and let Horford play the 4 some?

Bogut only has 1 year left anyway at a relatively reasonable price given the new cap. Plus he's a pretty darned good defender.

Pick up Amirs option should be next move. I personally don't want to pick up Jerebkos but I think the Celtics do.

1) Trade

a) Patience - don't have to accept proposals like the garbage on draft night with Noel

2) Free Agency

a) Gasol, Wade, Ezeli

3) 2017 Free Agency

a) Westbrook, Hayward, etc. Stacked market
