Really ... ?
You think TT & Fournier are/were better than Turner/McDermott could have been?
Wow ... Until injured, Turner was DPOY candidate ... Thompson? Not so much ...
We got little from Evan until the playoffs and then he gave up more points than he scored ... you can have him for $17-20MM. I don't want him and I hope Brad takes a pass and finds a taker.

SO you give the TPE by Ainge two thumbs up ... LOL! He couldn't even use the max allowed for a top tier guy and settled for Evan @ $17MM ... the biggest TPE ever ($28MM) and look what he got at the trade deadline ... I'd say he failed with Teague, TT & Fournier and he should have done the deal with Indy.
Now Brad may be forced to resign Evan or face losing another FA with nothing in return unless able to work a S&T (which will hard cap them again).

Ahhh, but did he walk or was he forced out? You don't really think the C's would ever fire a coach or GM do you? They'd make it appear that he was going on his own to pursue other options or that a mutually agreed buyout or even a trade (Doc) was in the works. The C's don't fire their hires ... It was just a matter of time. Why would the Celts do anything drastic after the team made it to the east finals last season. But this time around, the Celts exited in the 1st round. So changes had to be made. Making big changes after the end of last season was just not practical. The team made it to the east finals.

TT's contract is more movable than Turner's. Fournier is a legit starting SG in the NBA. Don't forget that Fournier was hit by Covid late in the season. I think the Celts will re-sign Fournier this off-season. So yes, TT and Fournier is better than Turner and McDermott.

Not two thumbs up, just one thumb up. I agree that he failed with Teague, but TT and Fournier puts the Celts in a better position moving forward. The majority of Celtic fans never expected the Celts would get a star with the 28m TPE. Right now Fournier for 20m per year is better than Hayward at 30m per year. And TT for the mid-level is better than Myles Turner at 18m per year.

Turner was always an injury waiting to happen. And as we are all witness, you need reliable players in the nba. Is a long season and only the healthy talented team has a chance. I am still on board with TT and Fournier. I could live without TT but Fournier is surely a keeper.

and that's why I've been calling for Danny's head for all these years now. You gave him too much credit and I tired of his failed trades and endless lies. There would have been no need for any of this if he had done what he should have with Kyrie, then the trade deadlines and on and on ... we were there twice and Danny sat on his hands thirsting for more gains in a trade than he needed to complete the puzzle. I've held him responsible for years now and added Brad to the complacency the team has taken on that is now described as dysfunctional. That's on Brad.
The difference is I didn't think the owners would fire Danny.That's the only reason why I didn't think it was practical to keep posting about firing Danny. If Danny wanted to stay as president, I don't think anything would've changed. It's a good thing that Danny is man enough to accept defeat and walk away. Danny had no choice... he was WAY PAST his expiration date by many years.
He had the choice of leaving under his own power or being forced out.
It had nothing to do with DA's manliness.
So why did you hide away for 3 months, amigo?
Couldn't handle a wee bit of criticism?
That speaks volumes about your own manliness.
Pud

Holiday earning a big contract Hell I may make a GoFundMe for him and give him a hundred myself if they win this Or you could just put 8 bucks down for 50,000 ad free clicks on this message board!...
It might be silly to say, but I am just so crazy stoked that the Nets are gone!!!...Everything just feels better!...
And Fierce is back!...Now we just need KY and Drew!...Che will return after the Sox season I would guess...

I thought Che was headed out your way ... didn't he ask about staying with you?
Ky's ban was lifted about 2 weeks ago so he's decided to stay away.
Drew has not deleted his account nor has he been banned so he can return whenever he likes.

Their is a Hoop God and Lucky gets his revenge as Kyrie watches his Nets fall to the Bucks in OT 115-111 as he nurses his sprained ankle and can do nothing to help ... blame it on those racists in Boston Kyrie! Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus ... Yeah, Kyrie is getting to be like Kemba...always hurt...he will never be as nice a guy as Kemba though...

Well, the Nets didn't even make it to the eastern conference finals. Two games into the season the new guy was already telling everybody here that the Nets will be in the finals because they have so much star power. A number of us here said KD and Kyrie have a history of injuries. So it's not a sure thing that the Nets will be in the finals because injury or injuries might be their downfall. Here we are, another crash and burn season of the Nash-D'Antoni system. Touche!...
Not to hope for guys to get injured, but they did and how wonderful is that...a big problem when you spend all that money on stars is the bench generally is not deep...

Well, actually I offered for Che to stay...would be a kick...maybe we could rally with Hedley also...
And yeah, KY and Drew have chosen so far not to return...whatever...not a problem for me...just like for folks to feel welcome...

OT Highlight from Padres/Reds game last night...Kim hits 2 run homer in the bottom of the eigth subbing for Tatis who just left the game injured...Tatis meets him at the dugout with some wacky 'swag chain' thing they do...crowd calls him out for a curtain call and he does some silly dance...a fun bunch...Go Padres!...

Does Ky know he is welcome back now? Yeah he does, unless he doesn't have a calendar and know what a month is...he is just pussy hurt...or maybe he is embarrassed about what a chump he was to Admin in front of the whole board...
I have been a chump at times here as well, but I usually admit to it, delete it if possible...but I have not openly challenged Admin...that is not so brilliant...I think he was a little deep in the bourbon...just fess up and apologize, dont double down on stupidity...
(someone should bump this because supposedly Quaig has me blocked)

So disruptive for the guys we have. That is why i think that we either try to get Lonzo or bring a 6'5 good ball handler. Would hate us going after anotjer ball hog small PG. No more stars or franchise guys please. We have two already.
