Re: Celtics General Offseason pt 6: Kemba we hit 100 pages before tommorow's over?
I am trying to find some sense in the keeping Horford theory out there. How could we manage to bring Kemba with Horford here? It makes no sense, right? I have just read that Kings have made a huge offer but that they believe Al is heading elsewhere. Can´t be us, right?

Re: Celtics General Offseason pt 6: Kemba we hit 100 pages before tommorow's over?
According to the latest theory, Celtics are the mystery team. So, after C's knew Irving was leaving, they started thinking about ways to keep this team in championship contention.
Suddenly, Mike Z thought to himself: 'it would be great if we could replace Irving with Kemba and keep the rest of the core together'. But there was one problem, they didn't have cap space. But then, all of the sudden, he had an idea. No, not an idea, more like a vision.
He turned to Ainge and said: 'Danny, I have a plan. But I need you to open your mind real wide. What.. what if... what if we make it seem like Al is leaving, use the newly created cap space to get Kemba, then make Hornets do a double sign and trade. In that scenario we wouldn't even need the cap space, we could keep Al's cap hold and full MLE, resign Al and basically have the full squad back, just Kemba instead of Kyrie?'
'What do you think Danny'? Danny?'
(Ainge not listening, rather looking at this phone): 'Just a second Z, Abby just texted me about an interview she did with this dude named Afam. You won't believe this.'

Is that what you use to argue with yourself?
Haha, maybe? Perhaps a "second" account would be appropriate. Although, think about it? Arguing with yourself, in the end, you will always win.

Zero tolerance i haven't forgotten what you did. That is why i blocked and have been ignoring you. About my signature. The things you said and the And 1. About my late Grand mother. I didn't want to get personal but i want people to understand why i don't talk to them, the vile things they have said and done. Like i said, i ignored you people for so long but you brought it out of me today. It has gone way past online discussion. Agreements, and Disagreements. I kept quiet and you people thought you had me. Not so. I only kept quiet out of respect for the moderators, and not to get banned but i couldn't careless. Now you people can see why i don't engage people. It is the verbal attacks, the mocking, the personal stuff comments, and And 1's. I mostly ignored it and didn't say anything negatively. What i said at that time was nothing to what i could have said. I quickly addressed it, blocked people and moved on. A lot of people would have handled it differently.

It is likely that Horford's interest in leaving has a whole lot to do with money.
So the big unknown is whether the Celtics will pay him enough for him to be happy to stay. The evidence to date is of course on the "No" side of that, but we don't yet have certainty.

It would mean Al was trolling everyone. Anyhow that would be really hard to pull off. Doubt the Hornets help us. My opinion is that Horfie has 2-3 teams that will be willing to pay him 25/25+ for 4 years as it's been reported.

Al coming back would be a dream, but just too many moving parts to see it happen.
But hey, Zarren is a salary cap wizard and stranger things have happened, so maybe

If we do the S&T craziness, we’d get a possible non tax payers MLE, right? Could even bring back Morris?

You can't treat people however you want to. Don't let online lead you into thinking that. That is all i am going to say.

He's talking about the mle to sign a free agent. Not about trades.
Yes, I guess that's right. To sign Kemba, they have to renounce the MLE, which means they can't use it this year. But if they could sign Kemba for 20M instead of 31M they could keep the 9M MLE and use it if and when they go over the cap.
