I agree that Kemba is not the problem, but like cole said, Jimmy Butler kept abusing Kemba when Kemba was forced to switch on Jimmy.
Kemba is better than IT and Kyrie on defense, but he's still a midget the opposing team can exploit.

This could be a golden opportunity as the Knicks are desperate to acquire an All-Star player.
If the Celts acquire the 8th pick and they still have the 14th pick and two more 1st rounders, the Celts will now have lots of assets to dangle.
Removing Kemba's contract also gives the Celts more room to maneuver in trades and free-agency.

Plus Hayward was a shell of himself, and Brad let Smart shoot 47 threes!

Plus Hayward was a shell of himself, and Brad let Smart shoot 47 threes! I partly agree with you. But still, Kemba is a liability on defense. Yes, it's true Brad let Smart shoot 47 3s. So if Ainge and Brad thinks it's best to move Smart, instead of Kemba or Hayward, I would be ok with that scenario.

What's going on in here?
You guys are still posting to the Heat Game6 thread and have had 160 guests lurking the last 24 hours ...
Did you oust Ainge & Stevens and reconstruct the Celtics overnight?

So both hedley and ky are leaning towards trading Smart and keeping Kemba. Reason why I want Kemba traded for the 8th pick is so that the Celts can use the 8th pick as trade bait. It also opens up some cap space by removing Kemba's contract. Hayward must then opt out and agree to a smaller contract with a longer duration. In this scenario, the Celts will keep both Smart and Hayward in the staring lineup and the Celts can now trade for a guy like Myles Turner. Turner Tatum Hayward Brown Smart No more midget the opposing team can exploit. Love the idea of trading Kemba to the Knicks and getting rid of his contract...also Hayward will sign for three years at less money, you can bank on that...those talking of Hayward being traded are wasting everyone's time on this board...Hayward and Coach BS are on a mission and I would guess that Hayward realizes that he was paid handsomely to rehab...we need him to distribute the ball unselfishly and create when no one is open...
