I think Brad sees him as a defensive PG with size that needs to improve his perimeter shooting to become a rotational weapon ... Size is all I see he has going for him. He looked real bad in a couple of summer league games, and than he looked good in another one. I guess we'll just have to see how it all plays out! Maybe Pritchard will be traded for a couple of 2nd round picks, who knows. |

At this point, don't we need PP more than than a few extra 2nd rounders?

Including 3 2-Ways for a total 19 players for training camp. On 2-Ways, only 100 days are allowed for NBA play split between the 3 players. Last year 100 days was allowed for the 2 players. So the number of days has stayed the same but now you can divide the time between 3 rather than two.
I thought it was still 50 games max for each one as long as the team had a full 15 man roster?

You are partially correct - if we keep one roster spot open then the max for 2-ways is reduced to 90 from 150 for a full 15 man roster:
Teams can now carry three players on two-way contracts, rather than two.
Two-way players are eligible to be active for up to 50 of their team’s 82 regular season games.
If a team isn’t carrying a full 15-man roster, its two-way players can only be active for a combined 90 games.
Players on two-way contracts will earn $559,782 in 2023/24, half of the rookie minimum.

Good news! Brad says the Celtics are coming in to training camp fully healthy!!
Stevens addressed that friction in his interview with Washburn. But according to him, it shouldn’t be an issue. It also appears Brogdon is healthy after rehabbing his elbow injury all summer he hurt in the East Finals against the Heat. That injury severely affected him as it was also partly the reason the original Porzingis three-team deal with the Clippers fell through.

Shocking the media would be reading too much into something. |

What do you guys think?
Looks like a salary dump of Ayton, which I expected. I think Port thinks theyll be able to flip him, but Im not sure how much theyll get back. Im sure they are immediately trying to flip JRUE after drafting Scoot.
Bucks get way better on O, way worse on D.
I expected more for Lillard, but I still dont love the deal for the Bucks because JRUE lightyears better than Dame on D. But Dame/Giannis scary combo offensively.
Wonder what the cost for JRue will be. Unlike Dame, you can play him off ball.

That's not a long term solution. |

Shocking the media would be reading too much into something. Ya know i'm not high on the talking heads either but looks like perhaps the reports were right and you were wrong. Celtics president Brad Stevens admits Malcolm Brogdon still irked over near-trade.. www.yahoo.com/sports/celtics-president-brad-stevens-admits-170857780.html |

Seems clear he's over it “Of course, and I would say he had every right to feel (upset),” Stevens said. “We said that this summer. But he’s a real pro and so we’ve had several discussions. He’s looking forward to getting started. We’re looking forward to getting started and here we go.” |

We all knew he wasn't happy when they got Zinger....Washburn was basing his info on Brogdan not responding to him recently. Seems like he wasn't saying anything to anyone in the media, but was communicating with the C's This is separate the other thing is it looks like he's rehabbed and good to go which was more on the crap Windbag was reporting. I'd take Gary's word 10x out of 10 over Windbag, but it looks like his interpretation was off. |
