Honestly this doesn't surprise me. I think it's more that Smart is going to get a huge extension next year.

Keep in mind this is Mannix so probably none of it is true.

On the one hand the premise doesn't surprise me, and I do think you have to be worried about some athletic decline we saw from Smart last year as well as the abuse his body takes.

That said, the next time Mannix is right on a rumor would be the first time.

If this report is legit I'm guessing that the source "close to Brad's thinking" would be one of his former assistants that took jobs elsewhere. No one close to his thinking that's still with the team is going to leak this because it's bad for business.

Tacko going to get paid! :lol: :lol: :lol:


I knew this day was coming. Goodbye sig.

I am out of a job as well.. :cry:

hopefully our loss will be Tacko's gain.

his floor may be "side show" But I am still foolish enough to believe he can legitimately be a true NBA role player. Even in this generation.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

I won’t go as far to say I called it, but in the last thread did propose the question of the members of the team being frustrated with Smart.

That half court heave with 24 seconds on our clock was significantly more telling than you’d think.

Brad Stevens who mad the worst trade in NBA history by sending away Moses, can still redeem his GOAT status with a good move or 2 today :nod:

We thought JRich was a Fournier replacement, what if he's a Smart replacement?

I've never been a Chris Mannix fan but he does have a brother who works Celtics and may actually know stuff.

I don't know - this seems like it would be kinda ballsy to report without real info.

Chris Mannix is the least informed basketball insider I have ever seen. A Sherrod Blakey was more informed than Mannix and that's pretty bad.
