His D is vastly improved btw..

Yup had him on fantasy, he’s had games with 4-6 blocks. He can be good if he tries.

Im a KAT fan and he is a fantasy god, but blocks do not make a great defender necessarily

This is Danny's master plan. He loading up on shorter players that can shoot, drive and dish.

Not that I would hate it, but ultimately once again, you want KAT to play with Tatum, not instead of him

Is that a hint?


No, but I wouldn't be surprised if Ainge goes the long game with KAT.


Yes, I'd say the earliest he could conceivably be traded is summer 22', thats when he would have two years left on his deal. He is starting a FIVE YEAR EXTENSION this year. I can't recall a superstar being traded with more than 2 years left on their contract, it just doesn't happen. Those type of players are so valuable teams just try to make it work. Its easy to say there's no way on improving the roster but a lot can happen. They miss the playoffs next year then get lottery luck and flip a tp 4 pick for Beal, as an example. Wolves will push it as log as they can in hope of a miracle.

No lie I did it with Kemba. I also did it with Kanter but I didn’t really want Kanter. But nevertheless I did it.

So Towns is coming to us, I feel it. Ainge about to make another big deal with Minny.

Kawhi to the Lakers looks like a done deal. F this dude. The league was about to be competitive again and he's going to screw it all up for the next how ever many years.

KD to GS didn't bug me a ton, because I didn't think he'd be there that long. He just wanted his rings. Kawhi? He's got his rings. He's doing this for the lifestyle (I assume?). Dude has 2 titles. He doesn't gaf.

Yup but its certainly a part of it, especially for a big man. KAT has the tools to be good.

I don’t know what it would take to get him but knowing Danny, he thinks he can wait. I wouldn’t. I would attach some picks and whatever it takes to grab him and pair him with Kemba and one of the Jays.

Someone mentioned Cousins and I can´t stop thinking about the low risk of adding talent despite that knucklehead attitude of his. But maybe having to sign for the minimum might humble him. In any case, he could always be waived à la Melo. Damn, why did you have to remind me of years of wanting Boogie in Boston? haha

And what is all this KAT chatter? You give me hopes but also confuse my feeble brain hahaha

Trading one of our wings and picks for KAT would be AMAZING.
