After passing on boogie, its hard for me to envision us taking on Melo unless he's coming hella, hella-cheap !

Bradley/Brown
Crowder/Melo
Melo/Olynyk
Horford/Bogut
Could be cool I suppose
IT/Smart
Bradley/Brown
Crowder/Tucker
Melo/Olynyk
Horford/Bogut
Add in Tucker and looks decent
I like that, and if we are really wishing and hoping, how about KOQ included in the Melo trade?

No. It's the same. Archived snapshot back in August shows no Twitter banner. https://web.archive.org/web/20160818002848/https:/twitter.com/CJC9BOSS

Nah man, something's brewing. I know its only Monday night and guys are off for a few days, but Crowder tweeting out emos means that something is up ..something that pushes the needle for us and Jae is staying.

Will it be too much of a jinx if I started a Tyler Zeller Appreciation Thread already?

Quick read but confirms our hopes for this All-Star game and confirms that as awesome as the BKN picks are, our best asset may just be our coach.

That Blake rumor is a major overpay.
Here's a twist- could Knicks become so desperate to dump Melo and his money that we get their pick this year or next?

Celtics receive:
Jimmy Butler
Andrew Bogut
Bulls receive:
Jahlil Okafor
Jaylen Brown
2017 first round pick (via BKN)
Sixers receive:
Avery Bradley
Mavericks receive:
Amir Johnson
2018 first round pick (via BOS)
Celtics receive:
Jimmy Butler
Andrew Bogut
Bulls receive:
Jahlil Okafor

For Blake? I'd go as high as Bradley, Yabusele, LAC pick.
It helps us tremendously in free agency to be able to tell Blake we tried to get him several times, and his coach listened.
