Speaking of back, that girl in your avatar has lots of it. Who is she?

RealGM has 3 days in a year when they need to make sure forum is working properly. Start of FA is one of those days. Notifications not working, tweets not showing...

It would be great if he and Kawhi went to the Clips.

I mean, we have a ton of SGs and SFs so we'd love to change one into Gordon.

He'd be a great piece next to Tatum now and in the future. And we don't really have a real PF or C lol.
Who knows. I think he's definitely getting traded somewhere. We drafted a PF and just signed one.

What does that have to do with the Celtics?
I know the Celtics were high on him. I was checking to see if you guys heard any rumors

Fair enough. I just don't see the fit when C's need a center. Not a forward.

Yep, seems that way. Their FA signings are done. Apart from vet mins.

So, how do you think we get the MLE? I can see a TPE for Terry via the S&T, but if we sign Kemba to cap, MLE goes poof, right?

Hmm... I'm getting mixed up now. If we do sign Rozier into space so we can trade his full salary, we won't have the MLE. Confused now.

KD and Kyrie are such butt buddies. Went for the 'lets just play and have fun ISOing and anything we win is just a bonus'

How much is DeAndre Jordan making? They really went wrong with the 3rd star unless he's on a cheap deal

Trade Jaylen Brown and other parts for Gordon because Ainge doesn't want to pay Brown and doesn't want Tatum playing too much PF.
Also, I think Aaron Gordon is more versatile defensively than Brown.

Best outside shooters for the 76ers:

Ben Simmons and Matisse Thybulle.

Boston to win, just guard the paint.


Best players on the Knicks who have played NBA games:

<search yields zero results>

Boston to win, just turn up to the scheduled game.



Not easy, compared to Houston or other stuff, but Celtics could get into the Butler to Miami moves, especially if a Celtic is going to the 76ers.

Miami want to lower their money, adjust their roster, and 76ers need help too in many spots. Celtics have been hoarding 6-6 shooting guards because 76ers have no shooting guards?

I'd rather trade Hayward for him. I think ORL might be too smart to take Hayward off our hands though.

Either way, on our team right now the players that ideally play PF next season are: .... .... .... (dancing bear count? Nah that tub of lard is best at C)

So is there any way to use whatever we get from the S&T to help get Capella?
