>>76824462
Morey has slapped his dick on the table and reminded all the "wheeling and dealing" GMs who is truly the king shit nigger of the NBA front offices. Ainge has been in a state of shock since then, so the Celtics' front office is at a standstill.

why does Drake always bandwagon other teams?

>>76824579

because he fucking refused a king's ransom for the number 1 pick, then traded it for the number 3 pick, then used it to draft Jason fucking Tatum.

The dude has no fucking endgame. I would rather have someone with a clear vision who sucks at negotiating deals than some guy who's great at fleecing other GM's but can't make a clear path towards contending. Is he rebuilding? Is he contending? Is he just making random moves to make people think he knows what he's doing? I don't know, but the more I see him come up in trade talks, the more I think it's just that third thing I said.

>>76824673
There's no way Hayward would get the ball with Harden as the 2nd option on the team

>>76823654
White Lebron has special magic against Black Lebron. Black Lebron hasn't won in Utah for years.

>>76824653
This, 5 rings mean nothing individually if youre playing in the most stable dynasty in history. People want to credit the spurs as individuals and boost duncan where as hes just an a good rim protector whose offense stops after a 15 foot bank shot. A slightly better bill russell with bigger eyeballs

>>76824675
It will probably be similar to Kyrie (Harden) + LeBron (CP3), it's not the most effective pairing but the sheer talent will get them to the WCF.

>>76824579
You know what it is? Other GMs and players are getting tired of him trying to trick everyone. Yeah, he rused Billy King. But he looks down on other people now and think he's some of kind of transcendent being who can see into the future.

I don't think Harden's a selfish player at all. His last season in OKC, Harden posted a modest USG% of 21.6 and FGA per game of 10.1. In his 5 years in Houston, Harden's USG% has been 31.0, which isn't that high compared to other superstars in the league. Lin's usage and shot attempts in his two years with the Rockets, one with Harden and one without, were almost the same (0.4% lower USG and 1.6 lower FGA). Dwight Howard has hated it everywhere he's played since Orlando (and even in Orlando near the end), due to the fact that he can't accept his regression on offense. However, in his three seasons alongside Harden he still put up 16.0 PTS on a 60 FG%, to go with 11.7 REB and 1.6 BLK; these numbers are far from bad. Everything I've seen from Harden tells me that he's a team-first guy, and both statistics and team records (with the exception of 2016) back that up.

>>76824653
>defense

L O FUCKING L

Duncan's defense blew Dirk's out of the water. Duncan is an all-time great defender. Dirk has never even been a consistently good shot-blocker.

If I were Brad Stevens I might start getting a little bit annoyed with Ainge. All this moving and sliding around of assets isn't a guarantee to make the team noticeably better. Meanwhile you're dragging scrubs and manlets all the way to the ECF and even stealing a game from the previously-unbeaten Cavs. Throw the man a bone, for God's sake. Give him some talent and he can beat any team in the league.

Celtics are one of the top passing teams in the league

>>76824887
Bradley & Crowder got routine open shots. They just didn't knock them down.

>>76824895
I guess, but don't they have Children and everything?

Miami hardly seems like the place to peacefully raise a family.

>>76824561
In play off games he played center most of the time.

>>76824867
>has clearly never watched the Celtics play

Even IT throws the ball around all game, it just usually ends up back in his hands because his teammates can't shoot and so they defer.

Anybody remember when Lebron first came in the league. I didn't really follow Lebron until he came to Miami actually. Don't judge, I was happily watching prime Kobe win rings. I do wonder if Lonzo is going to have the same impact as Lebron from the outset, just on the basis of bettering his team, not necessarily the individual stat aspect of it all.

For those that watched Lebron do you remember if the Cavs improved their record in the 1st season. All the data right now supports Lebron/Lonzo as immediate impact on making a team better and improving their record. I just don't know how much better in their 1st season.

>>76824894
The only move that frusterated me as a Celtics fan is two things
>not getting Jimmy Butler
>trading away the #1 overall pick

I could forgive the first. Maybe Butler isn't the greatest locker room guy. I can understand that.

But how are you gonna pay IT a shitload of money instead of letting him walk and getting a superstar PG on a rookie deal? And instead, you use the pick you got to draft a forward when you already have a budding star in Jaylen Brown?! It makes no sense.

>muh positionless basketball

"No!"

That's fine if you wanna swap 3/4 or 1/2 but if you are playing 6'7" guys in your front court that are not named Draymond Green, you are going to get outrebounded like crazy

Like we did against the Cavs this is fucking madness

Jaylen is a 3 (possibly might play the 2 if they trade Bradley) and Tatum will probably be playing stretch 4.

>That's fine if you wanna swap 3/4 or 1/2 but if you are playing 6'7" guys in your front court that are not named Draymond Green, you are going to get outrebounded like crazy

First off, the ENTIRE NBA is transitioning to positionless basketball by loading up on wings, it's literally the trend that's being copied from GS.

Secondly, no fucking guy we could have even selected would have made a lick of a fucking difference to their rebounding problem.

That's my point. Bradley is gone this offseason, they aren't paying him when he's a FA next year so they'll trade him now to get something.

And with him gone, Jaylen playing the 2 makes sense.

with fucking what

I can't wait for next years playoffs when all these Rockets fans are crying when they get exposed by the Warriors in the playoffs

They just gutted half their bench for Chris Paul, yes he's probably a top 10 PG of all time but he's 32 years old and on an expiring contract. They didn't need guards, they needed more three and D wings.

Just wait until they get exposed in the playoffs

Fuck, this just reminds me of the reason the Rockets will fail no matter how many stars they acquire. Morey has been absolute shit at acquiring championship coaching. First it was McHale, who was a friendly face but little more, and now it's Pringles, who at least has a good system but can't get it done when it matters. Not to mention how he always gags on Popvich's dick in the playoffs. Maybe Morey should try to lure an elite coach in addition to all his elite players?

>>76825192
CLIPS4LYFE WHAT ARE YOU DOING? PLEASE DON'T SWITCH TEAMS.

>>76825250
I'm a Rockets fan, and you definitely might be right. But let's at least wait until the off-season ends. If they snag George or Millsap, that'll be a definite upgrade from last season. Getting CP3 also cleared up cap space and exceptions, oddly enough.

>>76825250
>exposed by the warriors
does this mean every other team will also be exposed when they inevitably lose to them ?

>>76825289

There's no conceivable way for them to get PG. They gave up any and all assets just to get CP3 and they're basically capped out. I don't see a scenario where they can acquire Millsap or PG unless it's a sign and trade and like I said they gave up all most of their assets anyway

>>76825287
I'm not clips4lyfe, I'm Rockets4lyfe.... it's clearly stated on my trip name....

>>76825231
both cp3 and hardin likes to play off ball, dantonino is the pg whisperer, if he can turn stave nash into a all star image what he can do with cp3...

>>76825227
I don't think defense is the way to go only way to beat the warriros is to score more points than them...

>>76825345
morey can do like this, if butler can be had for lavine and dunn and #7 pick I'm pretty sure someone like Pg 13 who has tanked his value with all his lakers lies can be had for less...
