Why would Hayward sign with a team that already has 8 small forwards and no center?

>>76922444
He shouldn't. Unless he's gay for Brad Stevens or something

>>76922444
>8 small forwards
You mean just two, Brown and Tatum.

Crowder is a Drayboon-type PF.

If Hayward signs with the Celtics at least one of those guys will be sent packing.

>>76922444
because it's not the 1990s

Boston just seems like a bad fit for Hayward. The only move that makes sense basketball-wise is Miami.

>>76922862
Miami is the one move that DOESN'T make sense. Why the fuck go there and struggle to make the ECF when he can join a ready made ECF team and take them to even greater heights? Quit being a homer. Your team is trash.

>>76922862
>>76922917
Or he ignores all that and take a 5 year 170 million deal from Utah to play with an all NBA defensive unit with Ricky Rubio as a floor general? I mean I understand the west is hard but the Jazz is a top 5 team in the NBA - definitely a more talented unit than Boston.

>>76922947

>>76922977
>bounced around so many teams

He's played with the T-wolves his entire NBA career? I'd take an elite distributor that can run the offense over a shoot-first point guard - particularly one that was injured for half the season. Also factor in that Ricky is 26 and Hill is 31. We save money and get a lot of value out of Rubio. Let's not forget that we have Exum either, who looked really good in summer league. Quinn Snyder and Dennis Lindsay turned a talent-mill team into a 5 seed in the west... the WEST in two years. if Hayward stays the Jazz finish top 3 in the west 100%.

I'm LITERALLY hard at the thought of Rubio and Ingles and Rudy and Hayward and Based Boris and Rodney Hood

Why are the Jazz so damn based lads?

>>76923032
Every team got better and the jazz got worse, period. They also got more expensive with old-ass roleplayers taking up big chunks of cap space. They're fucked. Hayward needs to get the fuck out of there and come east, and there's no better team for him to do that with than Boston.

>>76923076
>old ass roleplayers
Jazz have 2 players over age 30.

Boris diaw, and ISO mother fucking Joe.

I wouldn't talk about stuff you have no idea about. Lmao

>>76922444
I don't understand the Celtics roster. They have a bunch of guards and wings who can't shoot and Charmin soft bigs who can't rebound or defend.

>>76923122
They win because the west has literally 0 talent outside of the cavs.

I think the Rockets, Jazz and OKC have some chance of knocking them out early in the playoffs with a mix of luck and timing. If that doesn't happen, Golden State has a 100% chance of beating whoever wins the ECF.

Stern would never would have allowed this, he would put a stop to this. Adam Bronze is besmirching the Commissary's office!

BALL IS LIFE

>>76925259

After watching that Summer League game yesterday, I legit think Hayward would be a bad fit for them. Either one or both of them will eventually reach Hayward's current level but if they sign Hayward then he'll just eat up minutes and cap space.

>>76925391
Stevens plays a positionless offense. They'll be fine.

yo celtsbros how hard do we shitpost after gordie signs with our celties? Should we go easy on this shithole of a board or go all-out?

>>76925354
It is the only time you get to watch ben simmons

>>76925391
Hayward is best as a SG with how big SFs are trending lately.

The Snus young lineup is pretty interesting. They have Booker, Bender, and Jackson who are all capable of being a high scoring big 3 but then they also have the baby manlet Ulis who is pretty much a shitty IT, and we all know whats wrong with having a manlet like Ulis/IT as the main guy. So will Ulis being a manlet work out better for the Snus if he's only the 3rd or 4th option instead of the 1st? Should they try to replace him with a more promising young player at point?

>>76925586

Bledsoe is way better than Ulis, I'm glad he's seemed to crack the rotation but he's best served as their Lou Williams. They just need a real center, maybe Len can do something somewhere else but he's too inconsistent.

Also Bender is going to bust but it's okay cuz Chriss is legit.

Rubio averages 11ppg and almost 10 assists. That is what a true point guard does. He passes the ball instead of being a chucking memelord. His 11points plus his 20 in assists produce about 30 points of offense

Obviously you would prefer that your production go through a smaller man so that when it comes down to it a LeBron type player shuts him down and exposes him (e.g. Curry, I.T.). Furthermore Rubio played his entire career in the U.S. with the Wolves you dumb fuck. I'm not even a TWolves fan but your ignorance needed to be called out

Why is it that in the NBA teams can hold on to all their top players? the Warriors just signed Curry to a huge contract but still have him, Klay, Green, Iggy and Durant. Why would a league allow this?

>>76926018
Spurs managed to do it.
Why not the Warriors with a much lenient cap.

Tomorrow will be a year since Cupcake left the Thunder. I was torn, really upset. But, BUT, it made me look at my team differently. I had Westbrook still and the team was still young. I had a different future ahead to look forward too.

Now, overall it does suck to see someone leave. After all the work your team did to get far in the playoffs, and then have your star vanish, it's aggravating, frustrating, and surely disappointing.

But you guys still have Gobert and your team is still very young and will develop through playtime. You continually adding valuable pieces like Rubio. You'll end up being more proud of your team than ever before and please, trust me on that.

Overall, if he stays, fuck yeah! If not, fine, you have a young team to watch and grow as a unit, and the pride you have for your team will strengthen.

i know, i just meant, a team like that signing zbo doesnt make sense, he should have stayed in memphis, probably would have got a better deal and he knows the system.p lus memephis > saramento.

idk i guess i don't understand what they're trying to build over there. is it all just to develop youth and fill up cap space??

Also have not heard great optimism today from a Heat perspective. But decision still being made.


so he is a celtic

lmbo at this guy and his dumb website. literally the least consequential "big" free agent signing that I can remember.

execs botched the cap spike so bad that sign and trade deals are coming back in style. maybe they're just not that smart after all.

>>76927330
No way Lamarcus Aldridge was way more pointless, at least Hayward is young, doesn't have a heart condition and doesn't play an outdated style.

What's next for Ainge now that Hayward is going to cuck him?
Does he trade his """"""assets""""" for a legit center and a nonmidget PG?

He needs to trade for superstar Nic Batum.

can someone tell me what the fuck is Gordon Haywards problem?

George Hill and Zach Randolph are great pick-ups for Sacramento. Veteran talent to develop their youngsters, now these rookies don't have to worry about carrying the workload immediately in their first years and neither is a long-term contract

I think it's a fantastic move by Vlade, and it clearly means that Otto Porter's contract got matched by Washington

Milsap couldnt start on the Cavs or warriors, the only way to win in this league is to get lottery picks until you have a big 2 at least, then go land a whale in free agency. The nuggets have one player that COULD be a star, he isnt one yet. Typical kroenke sports decision. Lived in, this is to put asses in pepsi center. Not winning. Kill yourself Jamal

this

>>76927870
jokic is here for the next 6 years minimum
>decline team option next year
>offer 5 year max

the team option on millsap gives big flexibility too, declining the option means he's off the books the same year as chandler/faried/darth, whilst harris and jokic will be on long term deals, murray and juancho will be on the rookie scale, leaving enough room to attract great players. there's definitely a bright future ahead but it needs to be navigated well. karnisovas is a pretty good guy to have heading the FO so i'm not concerned.

last year when all the vets got injured and the youth started was the best the nuggets looked, you're still looking at 10-11 like that at the least. vets will be annoyed if they sit since they're entering FA in a year or two, you can't do that to them otherwise it'll put off other FAs from coming to you.

>>76928035
gotta zig when the league zags etc. i agree with you that gallo isn't a great fit for the clips but it's nice to see one of my favourite players getting paid.

Gordon Hayward is now a legit candidate for MVP

What the hell are the Kings doing? Why are the signing George Hill? Are they really gonna put Buddy Hield or Deaaron Fox on the bench and stunt their development?

>>76928035
>the league is trending down at the 3

>>76928063
Congrats.

You just signed the small version of LMA. He's a non factor against LeBron and doesn't put the team over the edge when they're already loaded with forwards.

damn boston got hayward forst domino falls now they can get paul gerorge.
