He's coming here.

Relax.

If he was going back to OKC, it would've been done by now. He's certainly not going to GS to be Curry's understudy. He wants to win MVPs, not help Curry win more.

He's coming here.

Wonder if Danny tries to make another big move tonight to move the needle. I don't think anyone in GS, BOS, and OKC front office is getting much sleep tonight.

With or without Durant we will be fine. But I'm still confident he'll sign with us.


I'm not confident. But I can live with just getting Horford. Need to make more moves to be contenders though.

If he's truly loyal to OKC, it would suck to face 'em four times a year and in the earlier rounds in the Playoffs. And he would have sold out on them by signing with the Warriors.

If he signs with us, it could be perceived as him wanting a fresh start while having a shot at contention in the very near future.

Consider this your first and only warning. Don't come here and troll the board. No one wants to put up with this nonsense.

1. LA Clippers are out. They no longer have realistic means of creating space without dealing away Paul, Griffin or Jordan. Those guys are the draw of LA, so they are done.

2. Miami seems out as well. The word I heard is Durant doesn't love the way they've kind of jerked Wade around. He's also not sold they can build a contender in short order.

3. San Antonio has been really, really quiet, but everyone is saying he doesn't love the roster fit. And he's afraid it will be just him an Kawhi since the others are a touch older.

4. Golden State has the chance to build an amazingly top heavy roster with 4 true stars. That would draw anyone.

5. Boston - covered big time, but just in case: Loves the young, hungry roster. Loves the assets to keep improving. Loved that they signed Horford without knowing/caring if he was coming or not.

6. OKC is home. Russ is there. In a lot of ways staying there would be easiest. This is just speculation, but the longer it goes, the worse it looks that he is returning to OKC.

7. Don't think it is a lock he is signing a 1+1. Word is this has been stressful and he hasn't loved the process. He has more than enough money, so locking up a situation long term may be the most desirable situation.

I might have missed something. It has been a long ass day.


Is this just word flying around ? Or one person ?

The info is probably right. Keep the updates coming

Appreciate the good vibes, brother bear. The vibes being put out by some others, ehh...

Have a drink, kick back, and enjoy the Horford signing and picks to come. Things remain bright for us here. Also, appreciate how much the living legends around this town care about our team. Boston, man, nowhere else like it.
You gotta make it sexy! Hips and nips, otherwise I'm not eating.

Why do people start to assume immediately because some lamer on Twitter says "According to my sources" or from "What I Understand". These clowns are just seeking fame and more followers and have zero credibility.

10 min before Horford said he would join the Celtics, everyone thought he was staying with ATL because of how quiet it got.

Its simple. If he goes back to OKC on 1+1 deal fine. If he goes to GSW he will be the biggest bitch ever - even bigger than when LeBron announced his decision!

If he wants a 99% guaranteed title he will join GSW. Maybe he is jealous of all LeBrons success ? ...

LeBron is 5x better player anyway. You put LeBron in Nets and they are immediate contenders. KD is a superstar but not a type of superstar that will single handendly deliver a championship without good pieces around him.

That's what Danny Ainge should have done. I called it a risky move by not trading for a star player before meeting Kevin Durant. I hope that wouldn't be the reason he wouldn't want to come to Boston.
