Because he loves Boston and won a title there, is tired of getting traded around to crappy teams, and understands his health and availability brings his contract value down as he gets older.


lol ok. i'll believe it when he signs for 20 a year, my bet is he signs somewhere for 30+ annual


Ok sounds good man cheers.

I think Tatum is off the table, Brown and White are not likely to be moved unless it's some insane offer they can't refuse, and they probably aren't trying to deal Pritchard either. Horford is contemplating retirement but it seems like he wants to keep playing. And Kornet is a free agent who wants to stay in Boston but is likely to get bigger offers and will have to make a decision.

There was a recent thread about Brown's terrible contact but it seems like teams are quite interested in him fwiw.

What teams would overpay for Porzingis? I dont see it.

Stretch bigs are valuable now. I bet someone is willing to do 25-30 whereas it sounds like the Celtics need it to be 20 or under

Looks like the time of orgs foaming at the mouth over athletic, low IQ shot chuckers is slowly coming to an end. Maybe he will get traded to Charlotte or something where he can put up 30 shots a game without having to worry about winning games


Hes a poor man's Zach Lavine. and thats a borderline insult to Lavine

He probably will get overpaid by desperate teams, but i don't think its a good idea. His career high in games is 72... as a rookie! since then......

66
48
0
57
43
51
65
57
42

Also missed the majority of the playoffs last year in that finals run. His ability means nothing when he severely lacks AVAILability, year after year after year.

Lakers need to speak to Utah about Kessler and Collins trade all In, everyone knows I want that lols.
Also intrigured with Jake Laravia in FA
Capela as well.

Can't wait for this offseason :)



Yes to Kessler but only if reasonable price for player without offense with subject to hack-a-Kessler.

No to Collins.

Yes to Kornet, Yabusele and FA wings.

Not Yo Ham Lakers!

I would like to see for both teams a trade of Anthony Davis for Jason Tatum... Celtics back to the finals, while Mavs set themselves up better for the Cooper era...

Maybe the Bulls FO. This team just guaranteed $10 Mil for next season to a guy that missed 220 games and just undergone an experimental procedure because every surgery that the Surgeons did have failed.

You mean stretch bigs who can play 60+ RS games are very valuable now. This guy also just averaged less than 8 pts/5rebs in 21 mins/game last playoffs.

Some team is smartly going to sign NAW this summer. I hope the Wolves are that team.

Guerschon Yabusele is at the top of my list for a guy I want Denver to go after. I don't know what kind of money he will command, but is a good offensive player, can pass the ball and run some of the same sets Jokic runs.

Damn, this is hot. One last ride with AD in place. Sign me up but it'll never happen. If Ainge was there he would though.

Couple of separate reports a few weeks ago pegged Orlando as targeting him this summer. Was before the Bane trade but there's still a slot for him off the bench.

The guy has been a very good rotation piece with the Wolves.
