It's a song off the new Future album

I wonder what he sees in the sixers that he doesn’t see with the Celtics. A franchise of winning championships . I still don’t see how pop deals him to the sixers for that garbage package. I would ask for Simmons

We don't even know if it's true.

I find it very hard to believe that a player would prefer to go to an inferior team in a hellhole city.

Hopefully not true. I dont get it. We knocked them out of the playoffs minus our 2 all stars.

Haynes said this was was personal opinion.

Was only speculating. Nothing to worry about here guys. Just more beat writers talking out of their ass.

Rule of Thumb (it bears repeating): I believe the report when it's favorable to the Celtics. If it's not, then it's utter bullcrap.

He sees cap space. It only said he'd consider signing with them, it didn't rule out the other 14 teams completely

The rumor is that the 76ers package would consist of something like Saric/Covington/2021 Heat pick.

A garbage package, indeed.

He's never had the chance to trade for a top 5 talent, so there's no telling what he'd do in this situation. This is the caliber player he's always wanted, so time will tell how far he'll go.

Yo... Kevin Garnett says hello

My bad. Should have said top 3. Still, Ainge gave up a ton in that KG trade. 5 players and two first rounders.

What makes the sixers more appealing than the celtics. The fans, media and the players still find ways to disrespect the celtics.

For Kawhi I’d imagine it’s because he’d have no competition on the wings and be the unquestioned alpha scorer. Neither would be the case here

Afam · Post #1157 » by **Afam** » Sat Jul 7, 2018 4:56 pm

If he is traded here, and willing to re-sign , Jaylen Brown would be traded so he gets to play the 2. Unless he can't play the shooting guard position.

And then he still has Kyrie, Hayward and Tatum to share the ball with. In Philly he’s the clear 1A option with Embiid as the clear no. 2 option

What competition though.

Kyrie is not taking his place, neither is jayson tatum. Kyrie at PG,Tatum PF, Gordon Hayward at SF. Brown traded so the competition is not a good excuse. I think Kawhi can play the SG position. Can'y wait for the Kawhi situation to be over.

Afam, Jaylen Brown will be playing in Boston next year. No doubt
