Thanks either need to count on Rozier, or can send a pick to CHAR right.

We dont need to do the last part— just figured CHA would prefer him given their rumored interest. They could have a large trade exception if they preferred.

Cool. Would be dumb for CHA to not cooperate, but they're not the sharpest org.

They have a shot at some decent bigs w $8.8m to offer.

S&T. Probably the first time it's been brought up.

Because, Sign and Trades, much like rock and roll (I hear).....will never die.

AD probably recruiting him pretty hard to the Lake Show unfortunately.

I've wanted him back so bad from the moment we traded him. I was thinking this could finally be the year, but it just doesn't seem like a good fit for him. Even assuming Terry is gone, we have Kemba and Smart. He could get a bigger role somewhere else and probably more money too. I hope Ainge trys though. Offer multiple years and cross fingers.

Come on man I am super negative but this is a great outcome considering we were staring down the barrel losing Irving and having Rozier running the show.

Hacked?

If you think Nene would excite him, imagine if we somehow got Bender!!!

I would brace yourself. One of the more likely bargain bin targets, IMHO.

MJ might not want to help Danny. Still some bad blood there, 26 years later.

Watch on YouTube

I was rooting for the Suns here. Remember watching this on a portable TV I snuck into class haha.

Afam wrote:We lost Kyrie, Al horford two of our starters, and they are suppose to be a championship team all because of Kemba ok.

What the celtics have are three all stars, Kemba, Gordon Hayward who is overrated, and is yet to live up to his contract. Two all stars and two potential all stars in Tatum, and Brown. That is it. Good luck winning a championship with that.

You win with star players, and they do get the calls from the refs. The team is going to be competitive for the next four years, but they are not winning a championship. Winning/building a championship team is hard, but i feel like they don't have that team yet.

The next championship is 8-10 years away. After Kemba's contract runs out. The kemba move is to keep the team competitive and a business move. The NBA is a business at the end of the day. A competitive team, 3rd or 4th seed because the east is weak, but a first or second round team. They might even be a second seed if Kawhi leaves because the east is that weak.

Just want to make sure I’m following. You win with stars?

I think you just might need a bit of both...

Hope we can sign more than 1 cheap big. We have a lot of talent on paper but if injury strikes whatever big we do get we will be in big trouble.

zoyathedestroya · Post #275 » by **zoyathedestroya** » Sat Jun 29, 2019 7:54 pm

I didn't know Theis was RFA. Hope we can still get him back for a reasonable deal. Market is thin with stretch bigs.

We need the Pelicans to co-operate and its quite easy:

We S&T Horford to Pelicans. CHA S&Ts Kemba to us. We then S&T Rozier to Charlotte, who they absorb through their new trade exception from the Kemba S&T.

That would be sweet. It'd allow us to get one of the better FA bigs. I'm intrigued by Kanter, myself. He impressed me with Portland after Nurkic went down.

No one gets to dictate or decides when someone accepts something or moves on. You have no right to do that. You can also change your mind as much as you like. Every human being has that right. I feel like i needed to say that. It has nothing to do with online, being online, on forums or not. It is life in generally. Stop trying to dictate /control people's words, actions, and thoughts, and looking to provoke people. Things like attacking every post their make, every word and editing their post.It happens a lot here, that is why some posters no longer post here. That is all i am going to say.

Kemba-Smart-Carsen-Langford-Hayward can all handle the rock. Wanamaker is likely a goner. We need bigs.
