I don't see a deal there. Chances are also pretty high that they will use KP to dump some of their bad contracts.

Does the Rose rule apply to trading for KP?

I think he leaves if we dont get a legit second star.

So you think he lied when he said he was staying?

I take Kyrie at his word over ‘unnamed sources’ anyway. Especially since we’ve been playing over .700 ball for the last 30 games


I've told many women I loved them.

And I meant it at the time.

Honestly, would be hard to resist such offer right now. Woj kind of hinted that Ainge wants to keep Tatum. So maybe there's some uncertainty about what exactly Celtics will be ready to give up while Lakers are ready to give everything here right now.

That is a pretty strong offer. If I was New Oreleans I would push for 10-30 protections until Bron is 40 and then strongly consider that now. Can the Cs beat it next summer. Yes, but will they?

I’ve got an awful feeling about Davis and, in turn, an awful feeling about Kyrie. That’s why I say if you can get Zinger and a shot at Zion for Kyrie, you do it. I agreed with Cave and others for the last few days but there’s too much risk in the alternative. We’d be nasty. And for those saying we wouldn’t be better, we’d be adding Zinger to a team that made the East finals. Kyrie had nothing to do with that. I love Kyrie, but send him home.

Sorry the knicks would be nuts to trade their Draft pick & KP for a Kyrie package with Brown etc... I would do that in a second if I'm the celtics.

Not sure about that. Kyrie and 2-3 of our late firsts. If they know landing Kyrie will get them KD this Summer, they overpay.

People, stop bringing up the fact that AD has a house in L.A. as indicative of anything. Many NBA players do, as many spend their summers in L.A. It means little.

Question: for those of you who think Ainge can get AD without giving up Tatum, what reasonable packages do you have in mind? Not seeing it.

I've been advocate for a Kyrie-Zinger trade forever. AD is headed to the Lakers get freaking real. Do Kyrie for Zinger.

Not if we trade Kyrie, I really don't the like the prospect of making trades with a team in our own conference.


What does Kyrie have to do with it?


In theory Kyrie would like to go to NYC.

In practice I can't imagine him wanting to go to a team like the Knicks would be after that trade.

KP's injury history is more than a little concerning. Especially when he's been out for like a year with an ACL tear. Is he even returning this year?
