Wouldn't be surprised if DA made a promise to his agent that he'd offer at least $5 million and a chance for a starting spot over Baynes.

Do you mean that Ainge will re-sign Baynes AND sign O'Quinn? If so, that just isn't happening, and if it's between one or the other, I'd much prefer Baynes, although I do love O'Quinn.

Philly is already considering trading Fultz to move up in the draft. LMAOOOO.

This is right up there with the Brooklyn trade as Danny's biggest fleecejob.

In before someone makes a bonehead statement about signing Howard if he’s bought out.

Forget it. Y’all have been talking. About this for an hour in the draft thread.

Don't see why not, especially given Monroe turned out to be useless in game 7 ECF:

Kyrie/Rozier/Larkin
Leonard/Brown/Bird
Hayward/Semi
Tatum/Theis
Horford/Baynes/O'Quinn

Leonard? As in Kawhi Leonard? We probably aren't getting Kawhi, especially without giving up Brown and Rozier. Also, it would be much more prudent to use that money on Smart than pay four centers in Horford, Baynes, Theis and O'Quinn. O'Quinn only makes sense if Baynes signs elsewhere.

Monroe wouldn't have even been used in the playoffs had Theis been healthy, so that's somewhat irrelevant.

I don't think you're the one that gets to refute those claims Dwight.

I hope so much that Dwight goes to New Orleans and pisses AD off. And by some miracle, makes AD ask for a trade!

Good. Get him off the market now so we don’t get a thread about signing him.

Kevin McHale went to a Trump rally. The internet is outraged and calling for his head. Does TNT fire him? I’m sure there’s laws against it and I’m pretty liberal but the calls for his head and the Nazi stigma getting put on him is a little ridiculous.

Seriously? I don't think it sounds very fair to fire someone over whatever his political leanings are. :lol: I actually really like him on TNT.
