Haywards friend George hill discussing 1 year deal with lakers

https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/881926123248070657
Signing him would effectively knock the lakers pick out of the top 5.

I am not sure about that.  Hill is a good complimentary player.  Is he enough to get the Lakers out of the muck?  not so sure.

plus, does this mean that Ball comes off the bench?  I thought he was already penciled in as a starter?  better to let him develop slowly, but I didn't think the lakers were smart enough to do that.
Hill + Lopez is enough when you have teams like Sacramento, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Orlando, Chicago and Phoenix out there.
Which is why Ainge is stupid for trading away the number one and at the least not asking for more. This offseason is going about as bad as it could have gone. I hope Markelle Fultz destroys the Celtics today and I'm not joking.
Not sure I understand.  You don't hope that Tatum outplays Fultz tonight and that we end up with top 5 pick in 18 or 19?
I hope Tatum does great. I'm just p---ed right now and if Fultz kicks ass hey maybe Danny learns a thing about just giving away number one picks

You'd rather have your opinion validated than see the Celtics do well? Do you seriously not see something wrong with that?
Apparently he can't see it.  I just called him out on the previous page of this thread:
Quote
So your ideal scenario is Ainge is proven wrong, Tatum is mediocre, the whole plan falls apart, but you are proven correct.  Thanks a lot, some Celtics fan you are.
I hope Tatum is the second coming of Pierce and I'm wrong just feel like we gave away that number one pick for peanuts and if Fultz kills it hey maybe Danny thinks twice next time
Thinks twice about what?

I don't ever want Danny Ainge to be hesitant to make a move because he's worried his opinion doesn't align with the consensus.

Fake news once again from our pessimist-in-chief!

Literally no reliable sources reporting this.

Idk if his source is the Easter bunny or santa clause, but it's definitely not completely made up.

Yesterday he claimed Gordon was telling his team that his family preferred Miami and the magic source was pictures Gordon's wife posted on Instagram of the beach.

It's lame and clearly done to get a reaction.

I don't like the guys with him at his meeting. Turning down guys he knows really well will be tough. CBS has to be the linchpin for him to leave.

Lol no worries, I was a bit harsh on you as well. Just getting real tired of this guy completely making up anti Celtics news.

I don't know why but I was more optimistic on the C's getting KD last year then getting Hayward this year.  Not sure why I feel this way.  Maybe being let down so many times.  I don't blame any of this on the C's.  You can't force teams to make deals, you can't force FA's to sign and there is no reason in any way shape or form to trade any of the young guys or high picks for a player.  Anthony Davis is the only player worth trading the farm for and does he really put the C's past Golden State?  I would rather watch the young guys develop and keep the current team in place adding a Jam Green and a Gallo.
