Post future Celtics players

>implying a Chad like Hayward will team up with the manlet squad

>>75632119
He played for Stevens in college

>>75632071
Sure if you mean future thunder player

>>75632071
Only if Utah gets swept

why didn't they just trade for him?

>>75632278
Because they can sign him outright without giving up assets

This is the height of his Utah career.

>>75632278
Because he's going to the thunder ya dip

>>75632210
so? his family is setting roots in utah. Only thing he'd leave for is the pacers.

Kelly Olynyk and Jonas Jerebko are trash, I wouldn't mind having the only sick white player in the NBA

Not gonna happen, this team has a very good core and Utah can offer him the most money which they will. He really has no reason to take less on the worse off teams that will offer him contracts.

>>75632401
Boston has the #1 pick, and are the #1 seed
Boston has won more games than Utah in the regular season
Boston's talent pool hasn't even hit its peak, while Utah's peak is now

>>75632303
>without giving up assets

the same assets that are now worthless, right?

>>75632417
They still can't offer him the most money. Assuming that they aren't absolutely destroyed by the Warriors and that really affects his view of the tethering isn't leaving millions on the table.

>>75632401
Thunder have a better core and with him instead of Roberson goat team

>>75632457
Easier time in the East too.

No reason to stay in Utah.

In fact, Utah has a more precarious situation than the Clippers.

reminder that zero (0) big free agents will want to join westbrook's team

>>75632527
Yeah wouldn't want to play with a top 3 player in the league who averaged ten assist to Roberson

>>75632568
9 of which assists come in the first half. then you're fucked as westbrick heroballs you out of the playoffs

>>75632584
Yeah because he's got some real playmakers on his team at the moment!

Can someone tell me why Hayward would want to stay in shitty ass Utah?

>>75632624
>shitty

go to zillow.com and look at the homes and land you can buy it's fucking beautiful

what's a not shitty place to you? lmao

>>75632071

Fat Elvis wont let that happen

>>75632624
why did he sign a new contract with them after his rookie contract ended, when they were at the bottom of the conference?

>>75632648
Have you been to Boston, you flyover fuck?

Utah is flyover country. Boston can bring him notoreity, rings, and more endorsement deals. Just like the Warriors did for KD

>>75632662
He was about to go to Charlotte but Utah matched.

>>75632662
He was waiting for the right time to sign in okc

Lonzo, liangelo, and lamelo ball

With lavar as GM

BOSTON IS BBB NOW

>>75632648
so fucking comfy

https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/10680-Summit-View-Dr-Park-City-UT-84060/2137417164_zpid/

how mad are you all going to be when he signs his player option?

>>75632730
Yeah, compared to Boston and being with winners like the 17 time champion Boston Celtics, Tom Brady, etc.

>>75632740

The Jazz wouldn't want that. They would him to opt out so they can then sign him for another 5 years.

>>75632815
for him it is better to opt-in for his 8th season which would allow him to get even more from resigning a new deal with the jazz and secure his future there.

Boston
>dead, depressing shithole with no growth, awful schools and crumbling infrastructure
SLC
>vibrant growing city with attractions everywhere, very good schools, and low crime

wonder which I'd choose if I had a young family...

>>75632892
How about the basketball part of it, where Boston is vibrant and growing, while SLC is crumbling?

>>75632941
SLC is crumbling and that's why they have progressively gotten better every year since Quin Snyder became coach and just made it to the 2nd round of the playoffs in the much more difficult Western Conference. Hayward isn't going to Boston just accept it. His college coach being there and muh Celtics legacy aren't going to be enough to lure him there.

>>75633013
>His college coach being there and muh Celtics legacy aren't going to be enough to lure him there.

Yeah but having the #1 pick which can turn into another superstar and playing in the east with an aging LeBron will.

No one likes playing in small markets. Everyone wants to go to places like New York, LA, Boston, and Chicago

Why are Jazz faggots in such fucking denial?

>>75633057
Let them enjoy their one year of relevance Celtics bro

They don't know how to be sports fans

>>75632941
>manlet and a bunch of literal whos who struggled against the Bulls vs teammates like Gobert and Hill
It isn't even close. The only reason to go to the Celtics is to avoid the Western Conference.

>>75632568
see how durant ran from his ass

Hawyard loved Stevens so much he left him after 2 years lmao

>>75633361
And Harden

>>75633495
And Ibaka

>>75633400
Hayward loved Utah so much he almost signed with Charlotte LMAO

>>75633355
And you know, being on top of the East instead of being buttfucked by the Warriors, Spurs and Rockets every year

>>75633029
LA is the only city that has had a young star or one in his prime sign there so

>>75633527
And Scott Brooks

>>75633557
Miami had Bosh and LeBron

Boston almost got KD. We will get Hayward.

>>75633560
And Dion Waiters

>>75633605
And Reggie Jackson

>>75633597
Miami wasn't listed in the post I quoted.

>>75632071
Does Utah even have an Al Horford and Isiah Thomas?

>>75633622
And Hasheem Thabeet

>>75633495
traded, and also said he'd love to play with Westbrook again
>>75633527
traded
>>75633560
fired
>>75633605
ok kek
>>75633622
actually true, Westbrook killed cancer

>>75633693
no, they have good players

>>75633693
Do the Celtics have Joe Johnson, Rudy Gobert, and Joe Ingels?

>>75633762
>"traded''
>this damage control

>>75633762
yeah, when you need to make that many excuses, maybe westchuck is the real problem here faggot.

>>75633801
WHO and ok and WHO

It really depends on how they play GSW. They play them close i think he stays. Utah is a better team than Boston and they can offer the most money. If Utah gets humiliated I think Hill and Hayward walk

>>75633801
no, they have good players

>>75633801
lol with that roster, Utah won 51 games
Boston won 53 WITHOUT Hayward. With him and the possible #1 pick AND/OR another superstar, him, IT and that superstar (most likely Jimmy Butler) will run the East.

And again, Brad Stevens is there

>>75633904
You wouldn't care if he wasn't white. Typical Masshole.

>>75633983
>muh white
>muh black
shut the fuck up, dude is good regardless

>>75633904
I would think Hayward would rather just stay with his beautiful white wife and beautiful white family in beautiful white SLC where people are decent and respect one another and not some crowded east coast hellhole where he will be third or fourth banana behind a bunch of scheming me-first ballhogs and some entitled rookie faggot

>>75634021
Boston is even whiter than Utah, you stupid stupid flyover piece of shit

>>75634008
And Boston is historically racist and awful, regardless.

>>75634033
haha okay and the rest of the post? exactly you fucking boston faggot

>>75633834
I didn't "make" those excuses, Harden and Ibaka were literally traded, Dion Waiters demanded more than the Thunder could pay and Reggie Jackson literally refused to play in a playoff game because he's such a cancerous shit
he's better off with the Pistons anyway....see? that last one was an "excuse"
>>75633810
are you retarded?

>>75633904
>lol with that roster, Utah won 51 games
>Boston won 53 WITHOUT Hayward

you say this like the east and west are comparable

>>75634063
>not questioning why they were traded

You're just naive if not flatout stupid. They were traded because they were going to leave, ie, they fucking hated playing with Westbroke.

>>75633904
>53 games
>In the east
which is good for like 43 games in the Western Conference.
>>75633856

a hearty kek
>>75633834
Iso Joe is literally the most clutch player in the history of the NBA, statisticall speaking, he has more than twice as many buzzer-beater game-winners than any active NBA player. Joe Ingles is a great defender, a great distributor, and has the 4th highest 3 point % in the league

>>75632676

Boston sucks. Hope it gets bombed again

Are there any NBA fans outside of Mormonistan that want to see Hayward actually stay there?

He's wasting his career there. Boston can offer more in endorsements, a larger market and more notoriety in a much easier conference

>>75634089
Literally just horseshit online conjecture. Harden wanted the max, they chose Ibaka's contract instead. Because of the new CBA it turned out they could have kept him....but it was too late. As for Ibaka, his shot-blocking presence was dropping off so they traded him for younger talent. Ibaka was literally upset at the Thunder for trading him....remember the game winner he shot against the Thunder earlier in the year when he was with the Magic?

>>75634134
easier for neutrals to cheer for utah than for bawston, that's for sure. Nobody likes Boston, whereas Utah is the generic faceless male you can self-insert as in books.

>>75634134

keep posting, keep getting btfo

The amount of stars who have passed on Boston is staggering
Your team isn't a destination for anybody, get over it.
Maybe once LeBron retires.

>>75634225
wow you are mad settle down Russ

>>75634267
BUt none of them had a college coach on the team like Stevens is

And Hayward pretty much confirmed he's coming

>>75634267
It's kind of strange, though. Surely it's easier to get out of the East than the West, even with Lebron? I don't really like Boston and I'm glad he didn't go there, but what if he had gone to Washington, or Toronto?

>>75634267
Except, you know

KG and Ray Allen

Y'all saying he'll sign with Boston to chase rings when the current Jazz team has legitimate contention and a healthy salary cap. If it were to happen that Gordon leaves, whoops that opens up tens of millions of dollars for someone else to step up. You "muh superstars" cucks will see the Jazz win a title under Snyder no doubt about it. The Jazz are too fucking smart and too fucking good to not be relevant with their current staff. Dennis Lindsey is some type of money-ball god keeping to smallest of small markets relevant and winning against the clippers of all teams.

>>75634374
>The Jazz are too fucking smart and too fucking good to not be relevant with their current staff

They're also in fucking Utah. Big-market players get the biggest endorsement deals, it's a big lure for star players.

>>75634335
Washed-up past their prime guys, and Allen was traded.

>>75634283
>got btfo and can't come up with a decent reply: the post

>>75634436
>Big-market players get the biggest endorsement deals

Epic meme. It's like I'm really in 1985

>>75634519
They do, though. You think it's a coincidence that Harden (Houston) got $200 mil from adidas while Westbrook got less than half that from nike? Or D Rose (Chicago) got the same kind of deal when he wasn't even one of the top 5 players in the league?

>>75632210
he's played for the jazz longer than his fucking college coach. why do people think these things matter

>>75634579
Adidas is more desperate than Nike and D Rose is a former MVP. Hayward isn't in the running for a 100 million dollar shoe deal no matter what fucking team he goes to, don't pretend like going to Boston is going to change that. What was Rondo's shoe deal? What was Paul Pierce's shoe deal?

>>75632417
>Utah's peak is now
all of their core players are under 26. rudy gobert is only 24. this isnt the peak of shit

>>75634653
not to mention, if Stevens was so special, why did Hayward leave after his sophomore year?

>>75634579
>>75634662
Lets not forget Westbrook simply doesn't participate in advertising and isn't nearly as preoccupied with the business side of those things as Harden is...(not to say the market has nothing to do with it)

>>75634682
Beating the Clippers doesn't mean anything though. Anyone can beat them in the playoffs. Shit, Portland beat them with 1 good player and a team of literally who's last year.

>>75634682
Ingles isn't young, Johnson and Diaw are all aging

>chowder niggers so delusional they think every free agent is going to them
tired of this meme

>>75634682
>entire gameplan is based around Joe Johnson iso's

Jazz win maybe one game in that series without him

>>75634736
>Lets not forget Westbrook simply doesn't participate in advertising
>Westbrook simply doesn't participate in advertising

The next time you watch a basketball game involving Westbrook, maybe stay in front of the tv when the commercials come on....I know they're shit, but Westbrook is definitely involved.

>>75634748
i dont care about the cloppers. the jazz were complete shit after under Ty Corbin after Sloan left. this is the first time in 5 years that theyve been good.

>>75634775
talking about the core. you think diaw is carrying this team? i'll give you johnson though.

>>75634835
>Jazz win maybe one game in that series without him
yea game 7, just happened.

>>75634736
isnt he the mountain dew guy?

>>75634832
Boston is probably the most attractive destination in the east for a free agent right now tbf. It's a good team with a good coach in a major market. Boston fans are smug entitled assholes, but they're not wrong to talk about all these stars playing for them.

>>75634922
>major market

lol? bigger than utah, yes. major, no.

>>75634877
>and isn't nearly as preoccupied with the business side of things
I meant to qualify that statement, like I did the next phrase, I mis-typed, it doesn't change the fact that Westbrook is a reluctant advertiser that companies aren't willing to invest heavily in.

>>75634922
Why would anyone want to come play for the manlet squad only to get slaughtered by lelbron in the conference finals

>>75634934
bro compared to Utah every other team is a major marker

>>75634934
Boston fans are obsessed with sports, makes sense because that's all there is to distract from that freezing hellhole of a city

>>75634934
Boston's metro area is the 10th-largest in the nation. I know Boston itself, as in the city limits, isn't a massive city, but as a market they're pretty major.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Metropolitan_Statistical_Areas#United_States

>>75634952
Better odds of beating Lebron than beating the Warriors, right?

>>75634940
That's true, Westbrook has never struck me as one of those players obsessed with the business, not the way guys like Lebron/Melo are (and Jordan/Kobe were).

>it doesn't change the fact that Westbrook is a reluctant advertiser that companies aren't willing to invest heavily in.

I don't think this is true. Westbrook is a great player who's also likable and plays in a way that's extremely entertaining to watch. Companies are willing to invest him, and they have done it, and they are doing it. If he played in New York, LA, Chicago, or Houston, they would be investing a hell of a lot more.

>that one buttblashed boston bitch samefagging

It's cute that you want GH this badly but he isn't leaving

Enjoy your 2nd round exit as a 1 seed

>>75635262
Westbrook will likely win the MVP but he's not going to command an advertising contract that a typical MVP could because he doesn't engage in business as much as most people in his position do. Obviously he's been invested in, but he doesn't get the exposure, he doesn't seek the exposure, so using him in the original comparison isn't exactly apt, thats all I was saying.

>>75634033
LMAO Boston is less than 50% white

>>75635583
Mormons are very creepy, bro.

>>75635332
How is he not leaving? All indications have him leaving

KD looked more like he was gonna stay than Hayward

>>75634335
that was literally 10 years ago mate

>>75634832
Boston is better than Utah idiot

Why would Boston waste their cap space on Hayward? He's not a franchise player, he will be another Al Horford money sink

Celtics already have their future wing and if they get Fultz that's another future guard on the roster

>>75632417
>Boston has won more games than Utah in the regular season
In the east. If Boston had to play the spurs or the warriors 4 times they wouñd have a record close to OKC's

>>75632941
Utah has a great front office

>>75633597
>Boston almost got KD.

>>75637538

What kind of retard shit are you spouting here, son?

>>75637561
Westbrook is traded for Rozier and the Nets 2018 First
Jimmy is traded for our Celtics 2018 Pick and Jordan Mickey and the French nigga
Hayward FA

They literally grow up as part of a religion that teaches them how to turn off their brains and play basketball on carpet. Heyward probably can't wait to get away from these weirdos.

New England in general is whiter than Utah is

>>75640619
People here are weird

Boston is a #1 seed. They've already reached the top

Utahs best is a 5 seed.

Why wouldn't Hayward want to go? For what? A measly $48 million that could be made back in endorsement deals after a championship run in Boston?

Utah would be 5th if you go by adjusted rankings.Boston would be 8th.Currently the Jazz have a more solid team

>>75641877
That's including Hayward though

Take out Hayward from the Jazz and you'll see what we all see - a collection of misfit talent and bullshit

Who would you rather spend your career with - IT/Horford and whatever the #1 pick turns into or 50 year old ISO Joe and some French faggot who can't stay healthy?

>>75641933
Utah's core is pretty young.Boston core is an unbalanced weird mix of veterans and rookies.They won't win anything in the near future unless they start trading their draft picks
