Obviously Ainge is out of his league with this stuff. When can we get him replaced?

I don't consider Gordon Hayward a star. He is a good player. The only true star on the celtics is Kyrie Irving, with maybe Jayson Tatum. You need at least two to three stars to win in th NBA.

Look at the Warriors for example.

Steph Curry - Star

Kevin Durant- Star

Klay Thompson- Allstar

Draymond Green- Allstar.

Celtics just need one more star to be able to compete with the warriors. The road to winning a championship goes through the warriors for now.

Thats one thing I keep hearing that I wish would go away.


You are in the minority.

Well, he wasn’t even top 300 this year, when he will bring his game back he supposedly will be Top 5 if other guys don’t step up in the meantime. Maybe AD, Harden and other guys would have surpassed him by then.

But theyre not going to. LeBron is just exerting his leverage so the Lakers trade for Kawhi. Stop melting.


I see no plastic fans melting. I see one, maybe two posters with some bad takes, that's about it.

Maybe the people saying calm down should calm down.


Ive seen some say that this move ends our window for 5 years and others say that we need to shove our assets to the Spurs to stop Kawhi and LeBron from going to Philly. Thats melting to me, but if youd rather label it a bad take, I wont fight you on it.

I don't mean to come off as a d*ck but is there anything positive you ever have to say? Lol relax man. Danny knows what he is doing and you're acting like Lebron and Kawaii to the Sixers is a done deal

Careful, he is on the verge of turning green and ripping right through his zoot suit

Does anyone with access to a computer wanna look up Afam meltdown last summer over would we or wouldnt we get Hayward?

Then compare it to the post he just made claiming he isnt a star. The dude is all over the place. He doesnt know what he wants.

When the celtics lose to the warriors maybe then people will see how flawed this team is. It is not perfect. Why get to the finals with no chance of winning it.

Oh I know and I know he has a huge passion for the celtics but hes so passive about thread counts that he becomes unbearable to read 500 times just said in different ways.

Dude. If Philly gets everyone, so what? Lebron 33. They sorta don’t fit. We are still a legit shot with our team.

That said, LA is getting Lebron. There can’t be a worse fit in the nba than Simmons and Lebron. If I was Philly, Lebron commits, Simmons to San An for Kawahi. Then, get shooters such as reddick back in Philly.
