Didn't we just go through this with the Nets?

They're not getting two All Stars for Durant. After all this he's probably just going to end up staying in Brooklyn

raptors thing might be real, FVV and Siakam?

No one’s giving them to all stars what’s the point is if you already have tool store if you want to keep them in that Durant to the mix to win not to lose

And how many teams even have 2 all stars? And certainly not two all stars for a 34 year old.

This is just Twitter talk in my opinion

per Stephen A. Smith

I think a young all star level player + a player with potential on their rookie deal + a crap load of picks should get the job done.

Lmao, at least two all stars. You will take brown picks and trash and like it.

Well technically Brown and Horford were all stars...

Do we still have Joe Johnson?

The good news is we definitely won't get fined for tampering.

Hal14 · Post #346 » by **Hal14** » Fri Jul 1, 2022 1:50 am

he's probably going to sign for more than we can afford with the MLE, right?

no way we can get him, right?

Watch on YouTube

Size. He's mobile, very bouncy. Young, can shoot it, good defender who can block shots, plays hard.

Can play PF as well as small ball 5.

Could be perfect replacement for Al..

That's the bright side of Wyc being cheap

Gallinari has the same agent as Yam Madar. Now I understand why we drafted him.

Jalen Smith sucks. Good developmental potential but if you put him on the court today you are putting a bad basketball player out there.

Continue to be concerned about cheap owner syndrome. Hope for my concerns to be proven wrong.

More like a lack of revenue. Some teams earn twice as much as we do.

The way teams are spending money, taxpayer MLEs might be the only thing left soon. Some good players will end up stuck with it the same way Schroeder did last season.

Would they even pick up the phone if its 3 frp, Nesmith Grant Al Horford + ballast ?

With KD going they will need picks. Kyrie will bolt soon. They’re done for 5 years.

Anyone in the know wanna throw us a bone with what’s going on

Hard to get excited about Gallo if it happens.

He’ll get picked on horribly on defense. He’s really lost a step on that end and wasn’t great to begin with.

They’re doing ok:

If ownership can’t afford to invest in the business maybe they should sell to someone who can.

zoyathedestroya · Post #357 » by **zoyathedestroya** » Fri Jul 1, 2022 1:58 am

I just want one signing, don't care who. Kind of like a Brad Stevens proof of life.

Hal14 · Post #358 » by **Hal14** » Fri Jul 1, 2022 1:58 am

is it crazy that i want this guy back on the celtics?

Watch on YouTube

People say it all the time. This celtics team is too soft. someone just posted on here yesterday. we have too many puppies and not enough bulldogs.

We need toughness, we need players with an edge. That's what Brad says.

Bring him back, Brad! With the TPE..

I’d be happy to get the crawfish back

I’d love to get him, but only because he’s an upside bet who might be able to play in our system now. Really unlikely, his market would have to drop out, and we’d have to sell him on being a backup 5. He’s got more raw talent than Theis.

I think it’s Gallo or bust - and maybe bust.

Best case would be Bruce Brown and one of Huerter, Kennard or Beasley..
