That's the 2nd time they've done that in the last 4 years.

RJ Hunter.

That the danger in hoarding assets.

LOL Danny Ainge is failing

 

[WiggyRuss]

Yeah, time to admit we were wrong about that guy.

He was terrific and didn't cause any problems.

yup- thats why he got a 2 year 8 million dollar contract

no one wanted him because he is just not that good a player. He is well below average for a starter and lucky to be average for a bench player.

7?

You counting the pick swaps and SG-A?

Even if the number was 7, it wasn't too much.

They paid that price to land George AND Kawhi.

Couldn't get one without the other.

Plus, it kept him from going to the Lakers.

Knew you would speak the truth.....they had to do something big and they did.

Al Horford says goodbye to Boston with class...

I wouldn't have expected anything else.

 

[GNG]

These scenarios could make sense for Detroit Pistons to get Russell Westbrook

Ainge is reportedly in poor health.

It's only a number....a really really big number

One thing to factor in is that the Celtics have had far more picks than an ordinary team the past many years.

More picks equals more chances for "failure"... (I put failure in quotes because the majority of draft picks don't pan out as hoped).

But I don't think it's true that the Celtics have a terrible record on balance... good move/picks include:

• Jayson Tatum (including the robbery of the 76ers which went along with this pick)
• Jaylen Brown (many suggested this was a reach at the time)
• Terry Rozier (this mid-1st-round selection was labelled a reach at the time)
• Semi Ojeleye (2nd rounder)
• Avery Bradley (I believe he was a mid to late 1st rounder)

Going way back there was Tony Allen as a real nice pick... and from the way, way too soon department I really like Carsen Edwards (again: the C's swindled Philly to gain this pick)

Well, that's interesting.

Things are hot in Miami.

The Clippers gave up way to much for only 2 years and then a player option

No they went all in exactly like Toronto did. If they get a title and he leaves I'm sure you'd agree it's worth it

 

[msgkings322]

7 1st round picks?
Unprotected. If they both walk in 2 years the Clippers are crippled

3 years

 

[shopson67]

Cavs will have that rodeo drive money and get Walmart products in 2021

They're going to focus on Chinese players? Bold move, Cotton....

 

[shopson67]

3 years

2 actually. Both have a player option for that 3rd year.

 

[bksballer89]

2 actually. Both have a player option for that 3rd year.

And they both will opt out IMO.

2 year window for the clippers possibly

@Wishbone I'm sure we'd had these discussions on posting gifs of my boo thang.
