I'd say Grant is one of the least likely to be traded, especially since Ime wants solid defenders.

lmao. I respond because you're horribly off. Jaylen moves off ball and into good spacing to get open. Both viable defenders (Rubio and Ingles) who were supposed to close out were good on ball defenders at the time. They got tangled with one another due to Larkin's dribble penetration. People are celebrating the play and yet here you are being sour because you have this weird grudge.


relax, pointing out Jaylen gets wide open looks more than other players isn't being sour. I'm genuinely curious when/if teams will stop letting it happen. He's clearly proven he's too good to leave wide open and should be more of a focus for defenses else he will beat them so when will he attract even half the attention Tatum gets? And if he does get more attention, will he rise to the occasion and overcome it? You guys get so sensitive over Jaylen.


You're complaining about a player on this team for no apparent reason other than to irrationally hate on the guy. Tatum wasn't even covered hard on that same play and this is the point you're trying to make? What's the point of acting like a handmedown knockoff ESPN tv analyst? Let people enjoy good basketball and stop trying to ruin the mood. Take your own advice, if Jaylen's existence is triggering you so much, stop talking about him. Given your post history, you're not asking a sincere topic.

But why? It's just a non-guaranteed training camp deal with the option to be converted to a two-way contract. It seems kinda awful for Luke Kornet but I don't know why it's awful for the Celtics.

Wow...

"Awful"?? This feels like a really strong take for an Exhibit-10 contract. Almost personal even. Guy wasn't even that bad last year..
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Why not Harry Giles though? Because he won't do 2-ways or exhibit 10 deals?

EDIT: Oh I see. He's signing with the Clippers.

This is a small trade that I think fits the time line for both teams involved.

Boston Trades:
Romeo Langford

Houston Trades:
Daniel House Jr.

I know Langford is a future all-star but this makes the Celtics better today.

I really don't understand why we didn't sign him. All we need is a big we can play in case of injuries who can play the 4/5. Maybe give him 10-12 minutes a night to keep fresh. Giles is more than capable of holding his own in this capacity and at just 23 y/o with very little mileage and experience, still has potential to unlock.

I thought at times he moved surprisingly well for a guy his size defending the PnR. Better than Thompson at times. But whether you agree or disagree. Currently he has no role on this squad. He has a training camp contract; ya know...for training camp. That's it. At best, he ends up in Maine. Not sure a training camp signing is worthy of this level of revulsion.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

hahaha

I am just anxious to get rid of our crappy bench from last year. What I meant is that training camp is a time to TEST new players, try NEW things...getting back to a player you know seems to me a wasted opportunity to meet someone new.

That´s all. I know i shouldn´t have used the word ¨awful¨. I am just not happy with a wasted chance at getting to know someone new or at least someone who didn´t belong to our end of the bench. It was nightmarish last season.

I still recall Kemba laughing his *** off on the bench while getting beat up by 30 points, the Tacko show which I found tough for the guy, Carsen Edwards believing he is Seth Curry, Grant teaching someone how to do things, and then the Kornet, Wagners of the season.

Nightmares I would rather not repeat. That´s why I personally love what Brad has done this offseason and that´s why I insisted on trading all those players. It´s not Kornet´s fault.

I agree. The kid has upside. He was just not given the chance in Portland. He has the size, can shoot and post up. plus he’s buddies with Jayson. The clips got him for non-guaranteed deal. low risk high reward.

Summer League team was screwed without a real center to play with.

Maine team won't have that problem.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

If this was at a bar, I'd ask you to step outside :wink:

L Kornet at minimum is a quality level 3rd string center talent IMO. I will go down believing this till my grave..
