So doesn't that confirm that he shouldn't have held up his FA for his decision? I mean, I doubt it would have stopped us from signing Horford if Danny knew we had no chance like you say.

Couldn't he just wait to offer Wade until after the meeting to avoid low balling the hell out of him? By the time the meeting was over, I'm sure he got his answer or at least a good sense of what it would be.

Where have you seen that? Every outlet that reporter on it had it...   1. GS 2. OKC 3. Boston   Didn't even mention him considering Miami so I'm not sure where you got that information...

I think Riley is so up his own ass that he actually thought they were...

As a fellow Celtics fan, my expectations are a little tempered. Durant most likely isn't signing here because he was one game away from making the finals last year and has (in my opinion) another top 5 player in the league in Russ already on his team in OKC. Not to mention the fact that the...

Lakers should max Batum if they want to move their direction away from tanking. Kupchak has to know by now that no marquee FA is going to sign there until they can prove they can be a competitive team in the West. They would need more than Batum to do that but it's a start. He's not worth the...

That shouldn't be an issue as I'd venture to say the odds of Durant actually signing with the Heat are less than 5%. I'm sure Wade will be back regardless even if MIA strikes out on KD and Whiteside takes his talents elsewhere.

Also, it's a few pages back but I don't see how anyone can realistically say Miami is a better option than Boston for KD. There's this odd assumption that Wade can play at an elite level for another 3-4 years when we've already seen a steep decline. On top of that:   - Bosh may never play again...

I think that's what ultimately led to Ainge selecting a player they could really use like Brown instead of taking Dunn and waiting for the right offer to come around. Other teams could have low balled them on any Dunn offer because everyone would have known they HAD to move Dunn. Now with Brown...

As a fellow Celtics fan, I'll say that picking Dunn isn't completely out the window. However, picking him and having him on the roster by the start of next season is. Smart is very raw but he's shown he can defend and an elite level and he was a top 10 pick just a few years ago. You don't bail...

Celtics seem to have too many draft picks for their own good. Other teams know they cannot realistically add 8 players through the draft this year so they will literally have to trade some of these picks whether they like it or not. It's unfortunate but they don't really have the leverage in any...

I really, really, REALLY hope the Celtics can find a trade for this #3 pick but, if they have to keep it, I would want Murray or Hield. Whoever has better length really between the two would be my choice because they have the best fit to transition into a 3 guard lineup with the C's.   Every...
