BOS gotta sign him this off-season. Even if it doesnt work out, at least they have him locked up and can get a great return for him. The money is insane. No one passing that up.

They both look guilty on that play. No way flagrant.

Shoutout to Fox for making this happen in a city where careers go to die. Pretty impressive.

I always thought Siakam would have a better season than Jaylen Brown and boy was I wrong.

Clearly an unnatural kick out by Butler. Outrageous they not only upheld call but added F1.

Knicks showing heart. Bill Bradley and Clyde in the house from the 73 champs

Damn 60M/year is nuts. Used to be a teams payroll back in the day.

Definitely makes you wonder if guys are gonna start retiring early. Tatum and Brown might have almost half a billion in the bank at age 30. Would they even want to play anymore with that kind of money ?

is that supermax or just regular max? i cant see celtics offering that to brown; maybe tatum; esp if they get knocked out this round.

Pretty much exactly what I was thinking. I don't get how Lowry isn't playing over some of these dudes.

damn i was wrong to make fun of Fred Van Vleet's height. Apparently you CAN be effective as a midget when your name isn't Fred. Just look at Jalen Brunson.

I was hoping Miami could close this one out so they can rest up to take on the winner of the Sixers/Celtics series. If the Sixers win, I think Miami can give them a series.

cant believe we were lucky enough to have our name linked to his as a trade rumor at one point. Masai wins again after having Giannias on his resume.

That's insane. Brown isn't worth that. Either is Tatum. But they're basically stuck giving that to them.

What the hell is the luxury tax set at? There's a strong case in trading Brown and getting back a couple good role players who still have 4 or 5 good years left who are under control on a good contract and some picks/a young very promising player.

I don't know if you can build a contender with those 2 eating up 120 million a year in salary. After saying that. I hope Boston keeps both at the super max. They won't be able to build a true contender.

Is that our goal? I thought it as to actually acquire a star player, not be rumored to do it

SVG - runner/floater is a shot every guard has to have. But not our undersized point guard, he tries to go right to the rim with a layup
