Seems like that roster spot is ripe for one of Danny's "sign an interesting D-League player to a multi-year but non-guaranteed deal so they can be used in trades without costing anything" type moves.

Just looked up Chris Babb to see if we could give him another one of those contracts lol...he's in the German league now, averaging 10.5/3/3 on .66/.43/.88

The two best D-leaguers I'd give a shot to are Fredette and Crowder's Marquette teammate, Vander Blue, who's already had one stint with us.

Hindsight is 20/20 but I wish we went after Harris. Dude went for a bargain and made Detroit tougher. I'm not sure if Skiles just wanted his old Milwaukee guys but would have been nice.

That or Lee for Jack and Young would have been great. Ah well.

He could't even get minutes on the Nuggets. When would he see the floor for us??

Sometimes the best moves are the moves you don't make. I am totally fine with the way it went down today. I do love the fireworks, but the Cs are in an enviable spot.

Any follow up to this because it doesn't make any sense ? . I don't see Lebron, Melo or Westbrook coming to the Celtics

Amen. Love sucks and won't age well, Howard is a clown, a Horford acquisition is just ai'ght at this point and Doc wasn't dumb enough to trade Blake (cue Jamie Foxx "it's not on Blake").

Trying to get Thad Young, if true, is awesome but only in a make-the-Nets-worse-way as he'd only get Jerebko's minutes.

Let's let the band keep playing and strike gold with this Nets pick or die trying.

just welcoming a new guy to All-Star weekend IMO. IT's a great networker and an interesting story with a gregarious personality. That might help us in the long run but there's nothing to see in the tea leaves right here (good to have you back, Afam).

There was no move to make. Thadeus might have been decent since it weakened the Nets and Sully is gone in free agency. Other than that you don't give up assets to rent a player to increase your title chance from 0 to 5% being generous.

Probably just congratulating IT on making the Allstar team. That tweet was vague though.
