So, we could use some more.


Lol we don't have roster spots for more picks. They pretty much have to go at some point


Exactly. We can draft 3 more guys and let 3 of the guys we've drafted in the last couple years go but that hasn't worked so far. I'd rather take the chance on seeing what we could trade them for. It doesn't necessarily have to be Bertans but what other value could we get?

If absolutely nothing else, Poirier and Green are easy waives.

But things will happen between now and then. The landscape with shift.

Bertrans/IT
Wood/Rose

Collins and Markennen are fun but I don't think he's zoned in on either of those guys right now. I think his calls are to Washington with Detroit on hold.

I'll be fine with either deal. I'll be happy with either deal.


Bertrans is a 4 months rental. IT is not a good fit here.
Rose would be great, Wood just hate to play defense.


Wood is a good rebounder and shotblocker.

Just detroit sucks really bad


Wood has been on 5 teams in 5 seasons !

Stats doesn't tell the story. This guy is a very bad defender.

Even I expected more for Drummond. I guess everyone is scared of his new contract relative to his Impact.

Please do it Danny ! We can’t just keep hoarding pinks & the draft class is ordinary this year anyway.
Boston first & Milwaukee first & get the Latvian Laser !

I’d do either Memphis pick or both Boston and Bucks pick.

Unless they've loosened it up, they're supposed to at least be on the phone with the league office by 3. The C's comms department usually gives whatever summary announcement right as the deadline passes.

To me, its more of a karma/ righting a wrong move. Plus, watching Waters vs Atlanta was painful.

I understand he shouldn't be the centerpiece of a deal anymore. But if we go after Bertans I would like to add IT to the deal.

I get he has been washed for the past couple seasons but you're all crazy if you don't believe in magic. IT was magical in Boston. IDK why, IDK how. But somehow he will come back and score like 30 off the bench in the playoffs. I know. It sounds crazy. But it will happen :lol:

IT - **** no.
Bertans - yes.

For those of us who sincerely don't know anything about the guy, what is the reason?
