By total money of contract, the biggest signings:

Klay Thompson
Tobias Harris
Khris Middleton
Kevin Durant
Kristaps Porzingis
Kyrie Irving
Jimmy Butler
Kemba Walker
D'Angelo Russell
Al Horford
Nikola Vucevic
Malcolm Brogdon
Harrison Barnes
Bojan Bogdanovic
Julius Randle
Terry Rozier
Terrence Ross
Brook Lopez
Ricky Rubio
Jonas Valanciunas

Mario Hezonja, a lotto pick who might have had a triple-double last season, the cheapest signing so far.

Celtics are spending hours figuring out how they can sign 6-6 guard Tyreke Evans?

Is it all over for now?

Until the Battle for Los Angeles in a few hours, or days?

Why not ? If he didn’t get injured their would’ve been a number of teams lined up to offer him the max.

I would be unexcited if we signed Vonleh. Per of 13, low 30 3 pt %, 25 mpg and only 9 pts.

I mean, he screams average and was playing on the worst team in the league with 0 pressure. Not like his teammates were holding him back.

I have no idea what any of those stats mean. I watched him play quite a few times and he looks like a decent player. He is still fairly young and has room for improvement. Besides there aren't many other options out there.

I have faith in the 2 bigs we have.
Timelord is young, and putting in the work. We haven't seen a big like him in Brads system.
The Is. Stretch big. Played good his rookie year, last year after surgery, when he came in, the other teams big went off. Hoping 2 years removed from offseason surgery, he'll be back to year 1.

Now we just need to add to that. I think a PF/C combo as really those 2 should be center only. I kind of want Kanter as we switch everything anyways, he might not be as bad at pick and roll defense if he doesn't have to blitz and show.

Hell, for 5m or less i would take Cousins at this time if we can't find others. Hope by the playoffs he's 2 years removed, but it's a risk as guys who come off achilles surgeries rarely are the same. I mean, could you imagine some team being dumb enough to pay a guy who just ruptured his achilles like 164 million or something.

Just five more guards.

Did we sign-and-trade? LOL

Someone catch a dude up on what happened, Celtics-related.

Can't believe Murray is getting 5/170 and Brogdon got 4/85. There is no **** way in hell Murray deserves that contract.

I must be crazy but at this point I want them to find a way to get Cousins. Even at 60% or whatever he's at, he's better than this group that's available.

Kanter isn't what this team needs unless he's signing here as a backup. He's a nice scorer off the bench but I wouldn't want to see him starting every day. He's got heart but he plays no defense.

Looney is on the small side and benefited from being on an all-time team.

I could live with WCS and Vonleh a little more than Kanter/Looney but they aren't all that great either.

There's a Banner 18 ceremony at TD Garden in 18 months, that's all you need to know.

Willy Cauley-Stein
7'0" 240 7'3" wingspan, almost 26 years old
Total rebound % = 16, OBPM = -0.6, DBPM = 2.2, VORP = 2.3, WS/48 = 0.146

Noah Vonleh
6'9" 250 7'4" wingspan, almost 24 years old
TRB% = 16%, OBPM = -1.6, DBPM = 1.6, VORP = 0.9, WS/48 = 0.090

Vonleh shot 34% from 3; Cauley Stein has some decent passing ability (2.4apg)

Enes Kanter
6'11" 250 7'1" wingspan, 27yo
TRB% = 21%, OBPM = 1.5, DBPM = -0.2, VORP = 1.4, WS/48 = 0.159

Kevon Looney

TRB% = 15%, OBPM = 1.9, DBPM = 1.8, VORP = 2.1, WS/48 = 0.194
.

Two are too short, two are too crazy.

Looney's only offense was an easy dunk when all the other Warriors were double/triple teamed.

Vonleh is nothing.

Kanter is terrible, brainless, no defense, trouble. Never passed a ball, ever.

WCS is a bust. Entered the NBA telling everyone he would be like Rodman, not even a William Bedford-level player.

If the Celtics had decided to tank, they would have a better roster with more ability and balance than their current one.

When will Celtics fans finally understand that Brad and Danny, and most of the NBA, don't put a lot of value on the center position? What more could it possibly take for this point to hit home? The 80's and 90's are over. Brad and Danny will be perfectly content to get some center off the scrap heap and play him 15 minutes a game.

Agree. However I guess it more just 'bigs' we are worried about. Not centres, in and of itself.
