So Danny Ainge's true plan was to not get any of the guys he wanted to get and stay exactly where he was before this all started. Such brilliance from what is arguably the most intelligent and handsome GM in sports history

That "rival GM" is legit retarded.

Lakers will be finalizing the Hill deal now, announcement coming soon

LeBron > Jordan

it's still two picks, plus the Lakers pick next year gives them more assets which is all that matters.

>>76912415

it can't be #1 so it's guaranteed to be a less valuable pick

>>76912449
two is greater than one

>>76912443
>It's still Two picks
It's one extra pick. You had the 1-3 swap, and either the Lakers Pick, assuming it doesn't land at 1, 6-30. In which case it ends up being the 2019 Kings pick, unless that pick is 1. Then it becomes an undisclosed future 76ers Pick

>>76912449
We have brooklyn for that.

3rd best odds at the chip before Hayward signs

>Sources close to Gordon Hayward say he left Boston meeting feeling "a little bit insulted and embarrassed for [the celtics]"
>he further went on to say "a fucking billboard? really? Do they think I'm 5 years old? Like that would change my decision? That was retarded"
>Sources say meeting went south when Celtics GM Danny Ainge refused to offer Hayward a max contract and instead offered something "much, much lower" than what he expected, along with "multiple promises to meet Tom Brady and become part of a winning culture."
>"Can they even do that? Why would I care about Tom Brady anyway? This guy is a lunatic. I would never play for this dumb city" said Hayward

LMAO boston BTFO

>>76912504
>They had one pick now they have two
aka one extra pick. And they literally had the #1 pick in a draft where there was a clear consensus #1 player.

>>76912526

AHAHAHAH

Realistically, if Ainge ends this summer with nothing at all his job security probably is in doubt. Motherfucker has all these assets, how can you wind up with nothing but a player drafted third overall, especially when you had the chance to draft a player FIRST overall?

>>76912465
For a tanking team, maybe. Way to admit that the Celtics current core isn't winning anything. The fucking 76ers are selling off 2nd rounders to save roster space while the Cs are still trying to find a star

>>76912689
He got a pick next year and already has the Nets pick

Fuck this shit, I hoped to see Devin Booker play in the playoffs this year but every big name is going to the West. Good thing Lowry resigned with the craptors.

>>76912689
His job security will not be in doubt at all wyc fucking loves him and theyre still rebuilding dont listen to the memes and "rival gms"

>>76912696
You're a moron, without an injury we have no chance at besting the Cavs and Warriors. The fact it's a 50 plus win team is just a bonus.

>>76912534
didnt charlotte put up a billboard for him when he signed their offer sheet?

Hayward will resign and the Jazz will be 4th seed. Don't @ me.

>>76912689
sorry Celtic fans, Ainge isn't going anywhere. He's brought in too many valuable picks even though they mostly get wasted in the end.

More like he will listen and then proclaim that he will take his talents to South Beach or New England.

There is no real incentive for him to stay West. The Heat can offer him more real world shekels and the Celtics are much more closer to winning than he'll ever be in Utah. The only way he'll stay is if his Mormon Church and community disowns him.

In truth, they're really rebuilding with the draft picks and the young core.

But Danny has miraculously pulled together some trades and hired a competent enough coach to make this a very good team in the interim.

Its more rebuild than it is win now, but it can be both with the right FA coming in.

Houston doesn't have the cap space to sign him. Lakers will have PG, westbrook, kawhi, etc. as well as young talent in Lonzo and Ingram, he could form whatever type of team he wants here.

Plus he gets to live in freaking LA, the best city in america for rich people, gets to eat at in-n-out and hang out on the beach while expanding his brand in hollywood.

only other POSSIBLE destination is the spurs to play with pop

Instead of dropping the East/West conferences completely, why doesn't the NBA just do like football and have their own equivalent to the AFC/NFC format? 2 conferences with 3 5 team division could work and eliminate the East/West differential.

They should get rid of divisions and just have broships.

Heat/Lakers/Cavs/Thunder/Rockets/Spurs/Wolves/76ers/Wizards would be the /ourguys/ broship

Warriors/Celtics and whoever else we hate would be the reddit broship

Every other team would be the /irrelevancy/ broship that would basically work like the wildcards in the NFL.

Every year in the finals instead of having east/west we'd have /reddit/ vs. /ourguys/ to determine the champion. Also teams could change broships depending on where the free agents go and who has the most bandwagoners/reddit fans

>Following the 1999–2000 season, it was discovered that Smith was involved in a salary cap–tampering scandal involving Timberwolves executive Kevin McHale. Smith was allegedly promised a future multimillion-dollar deal if he signed with the team for below market value, allowing the team to make some additional player moves in the short term. The league later found out about this violation and voided the last year of the contract, also severely punishing the Timberwolves by taking away five first-round draft picks (though two of the picks were ultimately returned) and fining the team $3.5 million.[3] The move hurt the Timberwolves in the long run, as while the team still found success, the lack of draft picks set the team up for their eventual failure in the mid-2000s, which would continue well into the 2010s.

>>76914324

uhhh no, not since the jimmy butler trade. Trading jimmy from Bulls to wolves also traded the broship rights from the bulls to the timberwolves. Now the wolves broship extends to the cavs/lakers due to the jimmy butler connection. How can you be this out of touch with the lore?

But that's not the same thing at all. If the Warriors ownership group owns a company, and that company sponsors a Warriors player, it's not a violation of the rules.

>>76914328
If you wanted competition, you should obliterate the salary cap. If Kevin Durant was offered $70 mil a season, would he turn it down? Fuck no. Goodbye Warriors in that case. By limiting how much players can make based on years in the league, you end up getting a bunch of superstars underpaid, and role players being overpaid. You also make winning much more of a difference maker than going after money so it's easier to keep a super team around.

To be fair, Kevin Durant doesn't need money. His shoe deal is worth $300m+ and he's already earned $100m+.

It's not like Curry, who has been earning relatively little due to a comparatively undersized contract and a shitty UA deal.

Not surprised. As soon as NBA contracts became crazy money, players were going to be more willing to take pay cuts to win.

Even though it's $10m either way, the difference between $35m and $25m is less than the difference between $25m and $15m,
