Yeah, I guess I'd prefer Thompson at 2/19 over Turner at 3/54, especially since Thompson shot 39% from 3 as opposed to Turner's 34%, and Thompson averaged over 12 rebounds per 36 as against Turner's 8.

This seems objectively incorrect. There is a reason Kanter was pretty much unplayable for most of the playoffs. Also, it is not $19 million a season.

You’re right, we’re stuck with him for two years now and wasted our MLE to increase our bench defense slightly.

No, no, great move. I’m sure this will go swimmingly well...

Enjoy the shiny new toy guys.

This is about as plausible of a damage control move as we were going to come up with.

Nobody's celebrating in the streets over TT, but we needed bigman depth. And we needed bigman depth who's primary value didn't lie in taking away shots from our scorers.

we also have a 5m TPE if we look for a backup pg.

I don't understand how people are against this move.

Baynes/Ibaka(who probably signs with Clippers/Toronto/Brooklyn as we were late to the party)/TT were the best available big bruising C's left on the market after Kanter went.

Baynes who I wanted is not worth the MLE and is 4 years older than TT.

Theis/TT/RWill. At the WORST this covers the Kanter departure.

Oh don’t worry bud, I’m not going anywhere.

I’ll be here to clown you for missing a spot on Ainge’s nuts when you finish his ball wash.

I think it’s matchup dependent. Against teams with bigger centers I can absolutely see it.

Maybe Wyc just didn’t want to pay the tax which is why Hayward went bye bye

How the **** could the Celtics have watched Semi play for 2 years & think he is worth keeping on the roster.

Speaking of Theis, considering dude is a free agent next year we should probably trade him.

Him and Edwards or Semi gets you to PJ Tucker or Derrick Rose territory, salary wise.
