Adam Kaufman is going to look like an idiot if Hayward doesn't come to Boston. Just like certain people did last summer. I mean kudos for running and sticking with it, but it is getting to be a little over the top now.

It's a toss up. Kaufman is basically putting whatever reputation he has on the line here.
Good assessment:

How old is your daughter? Kids are hilarious...I have two at the age where they say stuff like this. My daughter told a girl named Avery in her kindergarten class she had a boys name because of Avery Bradley. She refused to admit fault or apologize. I pretended to be upset and refused to punish her.

Miami makes no sense for a family man like Gordon. . . . he's not gonna be partying, and he would be very concerned about the environment for his kids and wife. Miami is nuts. His parents are VERY religious people, and they have some influence on the decision. Miami Beach is Sodom & Gomorrah's playground. I can't see him going to Miami.

But I could totally see him taking a 5 year deal for almost $40M more to stay in SLC, even if that place is crawling with Mormons. j/k

Those tweets about the Celtics staffing huddling at Summer League with grins seem bogus. Utah Summer League isn't playing today. At most there would be practice, but it is 9:00 AM there. And media generally aren't allowed at Summer League practice. And outside of a couple of scouts, no one from Boston is here in Orlando.

bc my forum game is hella rusty, I didn't share the tweet correctly... quote:

"I just got a text from a summer league friend that Ainge and crew are huddled in a corner and taking a group phone call, Stevens HUGE grin"

Let the dude think it over - it's a very important decision in his life, especially if he's going to forego the 5th year and $40M or so, and uproot his family from their home of several years. . . .

. . . . for Boston.
