IT is not worth max money.
He can't defend.

How much exactly do you think IT is worth? State the number that you think is fair. Starting salary, years and total contract.

You be the GM. Lay it on us. And be specific.

Draft Fultz, trade IT.

And that is what we call evading the question, folks.

By trading IT, you'll be surprised at what the C's will be offered for him...not very much. 

After the ping pong balls drop, we can discuss drafting Fultz. I've seen strange things happen with those blasted balls in the past.

There is another option...pair IT with a Hayward type player or two that won't make us so reliant on his continually bailing the team out on the offensive end of the floor during the game. By surrounding him with better scorers in general, he can go to the bench when he's being abused on the defensive end.

Yes, start him...then treat him like a 6th man until the 4th quarter comes, and see what the team needs on a night by night basis. His minutes may decrease a bit, and he may not average 28-29, but he'd be properly utilized, and still be a "starter."

I've seen star players like Tim Duncan, and Lebron take less dollars so the team could actually better themselves, and have a chance for a ring. Why not IT?

Not at all.
IT should be traded not signed.
The number is zero.

IT deserves a max contract from the Celtics .

Then at the same time....

I'm not sure any other team would value him as a max .

Are we going to pay a max for a player who on an open market .....might not get any max offer.?

Drafting Fultz could allow us to replace IT or Bradley with PG max type big.

Why does it seem everyone is so dismissive of Avery Bradley and so willing to let him go via trade ?? He is maybe our best all-around player - when healthy. He is certainly more productive than Horford, though I hope Al will improve if we can put a better center next to him.

Avery Bradley - Celts best defender, 2nd best scorer and top rebounder most of the season.

Is the big question with Bradley his health ?
