As much as I want an Australian on this team I don’t think I want this Australian.
If we're reaching into the NBL for an Aussie, I'm kinda hoping it's Mitch Creek. Even though he does nothing to help our big man issues, and doesn't fill any particular need for us.
My excitement for Will Magnay would be less than that.
I reserve the right to be a complete Aussie homer if we grab him though.

Damn! That’s one ugly jersey!
This is a joke. Right???

What's Allen Crabbe doing nowadays? Terrible last year but career 38% from 3. Probably could be had for the minimum.

He's been bouncing around lately. But the minimum, IDK.

3 days away from the draft and a day away from trades, 1000+ rumors, and I still have no idea how this will end up
But I keep telling myself. It will all be over soon.

Nothing like an NBA offseason man. I get excited over the smallest deals for the most obscure teams. Immediately fire up 2K, start playing around, putting pieces together.
I still remember that summer Love randomly visited Boston and went to a Red Sox game lmao

Re: Official Celtics 2020-21 Offseason Thread
Shams reporting these players are exercising their options on Monday, and yet Hayward isn't one of the few.
I guess there must be some variance between them but I wish it was clear. I guess these players are exercising their options early.
Perhaps we could still get a Hayward trade in at draft night if he likes where he's being traded too and therefore using the option kind of as a no trade clause.

If Harden does move to Brooklyn, ugh. This is why the ECF loss is going to haunt this team. It was our small window of opportunity. I can only hope Ainge turn this around.

Harden - 31 years old, ball hog
Durant - 32 years old, coming off major injury
Tatum - 22 years old, just named to third team all pro
Brown - 23 years old, one of the top 3 &D players in league
We have time. Our window is wide open, no need to panic and screw it up now.

Yeah. We're doing alright.
We just need to build around them.

Yo Shaq Harrison would be sick if they can fit him on the roster.

Re: Official Celtics 2020-21 Offseason Thread
Yeah I would really only see room for him if there were a consolidation trade. Even if every FA leaves and they use every pick, it's hard to see adding Harrison unless he would be OK being the 15th man like Javonte Green. He's just a good value is all if he's had for a couple million and a consolidation trade opens up a spot. Defensive playmaking wing with potentially improving shooting, could be the next late-bloomer wing like Covington, though not as big and more guard-sized, and he's certainly a lot better than Semi Ojeleye. I just like his defense and as bench piece he's interesting depending on how the rest of the roster shakes out.

This has only been floated in passing convo as a "what if" we dump kemba for something not another point guard, nothing serious whatsoever.
