i can do all things

And now I’ve decided to sign with the Boston Celtics.

There were so many great things pulling me in that direction. There was the winning culture of Boston, as a city — from the Sox, to the Pats, to the Bruins. There was the special history of the Celtics, as a franchise — from Russell, to Bird, to Pierce, and it goes on. There was the amazing potential of this current Celtics roster, as a team — from ownership, to the front office, to a talented roster with Isaiah, and Al, and everyone else. And of course, there was Coach Stevens: Not just for the relationship that we’ve built off the court — but also for the one that we started building on the court, all of those years ago, in Indiana.

And that unfinished business we had together, back in 2010, when I left Butler for the NBA … as far as I’m concerned, all of these years later, we still have it:

And that’s to win a championship.

It's down right amazing to me he would pull the exact same thing as Kevin Durant, exactly one year after Kevin Durant, as if it was a good idea and there wasn't a huge shit storm and wave of criticism for what Kevin Durant did.

I legitimately believe most of these NBA players are complete brain dead retards that have no common sense.

Also
>signing because literally 50 years ago they were good but haven't been good in a fucking decade and so much as giving a single shit about "pedigree" when no one from those days but Ainge still exist and he was a dirty scrub roleplayer off the bench

Crowder and Smart will be moved soon I guess

>>76933696
Yep, for sure. Hayward/Tatum/Brown all need major minutes, one of those is going to have to play SG either Hayward or Brown. Tatum might get minutes at stretch 4 but this is a very poorly constructed roster.

The Celtics priority has to be getting a big man who can rebound so Horford can play exclusively at 4.

I'm guessing they move Crowder for a big

>>76933714
>Brown

Possible. I don't like Brown at all, I think Tatum fits better in the Celtics system.

Either that or they move Smart for a taller two guard with passing abilities, that can switch to the 1 when IT sits...I really like Tomas Satoransky, think he needs a chance of scenery desu

The hardest thing would be matching salaries. I think Smart and Crowder combine for around 11-12 million. DeAndre is is slated to make roughly 22 million. I think the only way they could make a deal for Jordan would be to include a third team and throw assets at them.

>>76934033
umm you're forgetting all those assets sweetie

Beverley
Rivers
Gallinari
Griffin
Jordan

>>76933996
Bulls don't deserve to be first in anything but sucking dick after that god awful Butler trade.

damn it pelinka, damn it magic, if you don't find a way to dump deng right now.

>>76934047
Curious how Gobert is feeling right now

>>76934035
They only have to trade one of Crowder, Bradley, and Smart.

Personally I'd rather trade Crowder but my money's on Smart.

No, Clips

>>76934013
Kyrie entered God mode against a top defending team in the finals. Isaiah's usage rate is off the charts. You give Kyrie the ball that much he puts up those kind of stats in the regular season.

AINGE NOW IS THE TIME TO TRADE FOR GOBERT, SEND YOUR ASSETS TO UTAH

He'd be a snake if he took a pay cut to play for Cavs or GSW bro. Going to a top 5 team isn't really being a snake since he has no chance to make the finals

>>76934056
You are basically hoping for the lottery because that Lakers pick is probably falling 7 at best

>>76934040

me, the fact that people even sweated it for a second was hilarious.

I mean how dumb would he have had to have been to stay at Utah, or go to fucking MIAMI LOL, or the team that just drafted the most underrated player in the NBA already, and is basically a contender now with you on them

and oh yeah your former coach who you always had that movie like bond with about 'winning 1 championship together' happens to be on it too..

>>76934069
Yeah I agree. But Isiah is a better PG to me. Kyrie don't look for nobodies shot but his own 98% of the time.

What do you do if you're Gobert? The best defense in the world doesnt matter when 20+ ppg just left your team and all the good guards are gone.

larry was only good when only slow white bois played

if he was teleported in time and you gave him a month to acclimate and speed up and try to play in the nba today he'd get man handled like a bitch

>>76934069

We've seen Kyrie without Lebron and with the liberty to jack up as many shots as he wants. It wasn't/isn't that impressive

"No!"

SOURCES CLOSE TO ME HAVE CONFIRMED AINGE WILL SEND HORFORD, SMART AND A 2018 SECOND ROUND PICK TO UTAH FOR GOBERT

I can't understand why people think he isn't better off in Boston. It'll be easier for him to make the playoffs on a higher seeded and make a deeper run for longer as well as being an annual all-star

>>76934114
NBA is whiter now than in the 80s.

>>76934114
Larry Bird was basically like a white trash asshole who would pick fights with niggers just to pick fights, he wasn't soft and if anything he would get thrown out a lot of games

If you're serious, he prefers the Thunder but they have no cap space and can't offer him enough $krilla. FWIW he's supposedly meeting with the Kings about a sign-and-trade to circumvent this

>>76934180

The pels have 2 good players, one massively overpaid mediocre player and a bunch of d-leaguers. It's very possible they don't make the playoffs and will be this year's circus if Houston pans out

>>76934192
they were consistently good in the 90s, Robinson got hurt so they tanked, got Duncan and the kept winning titles because they improved massively from getting him. It's all just luck really

What teams need a rebrand? Clippers come to mind. I think they need a whole new color scheme too. Maybe a name change. A new city while we're at it

This. Plus lucked into Pop. Overall they ingrained a certain lifestyle and culture right now that is hard to replicate

>>76934218

The pelicans made the playoffs 2 years ago with just anthony davis, and would have made it last year if not for injuries.

Add the fact that they have cousins now, and they're a lock.

>>76934320
But the Process

>>76934320
3/90m to millsap doesn't even qualify as low key. It's not just Jokic hype, it's taking an average team and adding an all star to it - of course people think they'll make the playoffs.

I really, really hate Gordon Hayward now.

>>76933913
because rondo was/is a stat padder. the real meme is rebounding guards.

>>76934244
Reminder Denver traded gobert away for cash and some dude who isn't even in the league anymoe

Hayward should be an example of how to tank your image in 24 hours holy fuck what a shit show

I don't buy the dame/cj backcourt hype. They've been so shitty since LMA left and their best players don't play any defense. I know Aldridge is a meme now, but he used to actually be good and play defense. CJ and Lillard are overrated chuckers

Why are Jazz fans so assblasted? He's just being a good Mormon and having multiple partners.
