Apparently LeRoy The Ghost has broken news before..??

So heat up the extend-and-trade Jaylen rumors. And the Jaylen for a big free agent rumors.

Bring me Porzingis!! He would be a perfect fit and finally give us a big man scoring presence that we were clearly lacking in the playoffs.

I think we'll keep this as a separate thread for now since it's pretty big news. Can always merge it into the larger trade thread later. Part 4 is up now btw.

This team will definitely win more than he's ever seen in his life.

Could be Jaylen adds a year to go to Portland, or we get Jerami Grant and one of Sharpe/3..?

You were the first I saw to suggest this. I kinda meh'ed it at the time, but definitely came around.

Well the first one had Jaylen going out :lol: :lol: :lol: but I appreciate it 8-)

I probably said so many bad things about this dude when he was drafted by the Knicks

If you’re reading Kristaps, hi it’s me, I’m the problem it’s me.

This would also make the team MUCH bigger.

And I know the front court is made of glass (rob, Gallo, Horford, KP) but if they can all let each other rest they fit together like an absolute DREAM.

Truly inside and outside type of play.

Need 1 more guy in there who is a run jump athlete though, lots of them out there at contracts under 5 million.

Repeat: Brad's turned the tax MLE (Schroeder), Aaron Nesmith and the 26th pick in the draft into Kristaps Porzingis..


Guess you were not alive for the Rick Pitino era or the Vin Baker trade. I like Brogdon but Boston desperately needs another big.

Well, that's probably my preferred approach to, lol... But, we'll just have to settle for 3 & Simons alongside KP instead.

Wouldn't be any different this upcoming season. They will send out as much $$ as $$ coming in (Zinger). JB's extension kicks in next season. So re-signing KP could be an issue, but let's not worry about that quite yet :D

Yup, we can worry about that later. We'd be significantly upgrading our #3 scorer. 2 yrs ago our 3rd best scorer was Smart. This past season it was Brogdon. KP is a MUCH better scorer than those guys and is a much better fit with the Jays, giving us not only a guy who can shoot, but also a guy who can score near the basket.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)
