    NBA 2018 Trade Deadline Chatter

    Idea: Celtics get: Belinelli, 2018 Houston 1st, 2018 Minny 1st Hawks get: Smart, 2019 Clippers 1st (and it’s wild protections) Good for both teams yo.

    Who Might Value the 2019 Clippers pick the most? The Clippers...

    Mudiay’s still a talented kid. It would not be strange to see a team stuck in the middle take a shot at him. But this is all moot — Williams off the market. What’s not moot? Smart to the Clippers makes some sense.

    NBA Grants Celtics $8.4 Million Disabled Player Exception

    Maybe, depending on what you like in a player. But Vonleh will be better than him in time (with the right coach), and Davis fits a clear needs on this team well. Combine that will Morris’ gimpy knee and I’m in. And — neither of them specializes in ballstopping elbow isolation resulting in...

    NBA Grants Celtics $8.4 Million Disabled Player Exception

    Yep — this has been on my mind, as well. I think the market for Smart and / or Randle could be tough this summer. Interested to see if either or both may end up on bargain contracts, relatively speaking. I think Smart and Randle in the P-N-R could be a nasty combo on the 2nd unit. One idea: if...

    NBA Grants Celtics $8.4 Million Disabled Player Exception

    Looks like you’re right — sounds like it’s “each year” which presumably means off-season. Still it’s totally possible he could buy himself out for the right opportunity, if the Cs could assure rotation minutes on the East’s best team. Considering that and the $$$, what better opportunity could...

    NBA Grants Celtics $8.4 Million Disabled Player Exception

    Randolph has an out clause. https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2017/09/anthony-randolph-discusses-possibility-of-nba-return.html And I mean a 1 + 1 this summer. One of the benefits of the DPE is that it can be used in full at anytime (no proration) before the March deadline. Then the player can be...

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Alright this time I’m really signing off, boys. Check out my idea on the DPE thread from earlier today... so you can rip it to shreds!!!

    Cap space. Maybe a little more. And no I’ve been on those Mavs blogs they’re boring. Sorry, Bob Bitchin’!

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Fella I’m not angry at all. I just know the difference between when someone IS a free agent, and when someone’s NOT a free agent. To borrow your condescending tone: “hint: Garnett was not one in 2007. Davis will be in 2020.” So you think there’s no chance — ever — that the Cs will trade Brown...

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Hey this has been a fun day fellas!! Fun thread. Felt like the early days of Celticsblog... back when candid debate — or literally any debate at all — was actually encouraged there. Appreciate all the vim and vigor I received. I’ll be back for more punishment another day soon!

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Al Horford wouldn’t help them win games? You don’t think he’s a really, really good fit for Carlisle’s system? That’s funny — cuz I do. Teams don’t go thru a perfect circle of up and down. Don’t dismiss that the Mavs might actually want to win games next year in lieu of getting 7 Dennis Smiths...

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Sorry I deleted the hyperbolic 1991 thing — that was annoying. I’m not screaming anything. You’re taking it as that because you don’t like your feathers ruffled by someone new around here Prior to agreeing to be traded to the Cs, Garnett had one one year left on his deal before he could opt...

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Oh I can think of lots of reasons why Dallas would want Horford. You can’t? He’s pretty good. their frontcourt could use the help, and Rick Carlisle likes winning games. So does Mark Cuban. He likes sellouts too. Maybe they won’t give up a pick for him, depending on where it lands. But a lot...

    Celtics 'Vigilant' on Anthony Davis

    Was Garnett a Free Agent when they traded for him? No. Ainge is waiting? No. He’s actively channeling now — even Davis admits it. Will he be ready today, tomorrow, this summer, next year, summer of 2019, deadline 2020, And everyday in between to trade for Davis if it takes that long? Sure. But...
