Over/under on when Shak_Celts joins the X-man fan club during a game thread, anybody?

C'mon now, this is as Marcus-like than we were gonna get from trading Lamar Stephens, two 2nds, and a side of TPE!

Starting to wonder if Luke’s hamstring injury wasn’t life-threatening.

Caruso next?

I begged for Tillman & Caruso. I'll have to look back at the original post I did awhile back

Bulls want an OG haul for Caruso which is not happening.

At this point just F'in do it. They probably won't but why not Pritchard (filler Svi/Banton,etc) and 2 first round picks for Caruso. Just do it.

Jrue/White/JB/JT/KP
Caruso/Hauser/Tillman/Horford is unbelievable 9-man rotation

Yes please.

What exactly happened to Tillman’s finishing this year? Went from mediocre to basement, not sure if that’s a team thing or individual performance or…

It’s gonna be Lonnie Walker next right? Have to think a perimeter player is on the docket

So with Lamar Stevens in the trade for Tillman, that means the whole Grant TPE is untouched because we matched salaries. Correct? My Kispert dream is alive (or any number of other guys that fit the full TPE)!

I’m fine with Tillman, I’m just here for caruso! I like anybody that plays defense, that’s all I need to know to get onboard, don’t worry! X has a fan in me.

Looks like Celts17Pride got your answer.

Brad is amazing at finding these cracks of light in the contract rules.

Kispert would be a great compliment to adding Tillman. And yeah, still a lot of players out there.

Still have firsts left, maybe my Moody dream is still alive too.

I can’t shake that JaMarco thinks it’s a useless move, what do I do?

Good pickup. Tillman is a VERY good defender, 3rd in the entire league in defensive EPM. Averages over a steal and a block per game despite playing only 20 minutes per night. He doesn't do much on offense, but with the shooters the c's have he can play in lineups next to KP on nights Horford can't go. Gives them a different look at center vs Kornet or Queta. Celtics have had success with shorter, stronger bigs.
