So I currently have a Kyrie Irving Celtics Dri-Fit shirt (one of those "looser", polyester material-kind), and it's still in pretty good shape, although I've noticed that after a few laundry washes at a time the wording on the shirt fades a tiny bit and the stitching of the white words are also chipping off a bit. It's still fine and I can wear it, but I was thinking about buying another Celtics shirt from a sporting store.

And... there lies the problem. Who's jersey should I get  :P

Silly me brought an Evan Turner shirt like 3 months before his FA thinking we'd be able to keep him (lol), and then fast forward to about 2 months before the 2016-2017 playoffs when silly me brought an Isaiah Thomas shirt feeling very, very confident we'd re-sign him, and then he got traded almost 6 months later.

There's obviously no 100% guarantee of some of the young guys like Smart, Timelord, Brown, Tatum, etc. being on the team next year because of the endless AD trade rumors. I personally don't think we get Davis (feel the ship has sailed), but of course it's still a possibility and literally anyone could be in the potential package.

Irving of course is hitting FA (and I do have an Irving shirt currently too), and so are Morris + Rozier.

I guess I'd say Horford or Hayward, but then you have some folks making the claim of there being a chance (which is less than 1%, mind you) of dealing either in a S&T for Durant. And also, Horford's contract could be up as early as this summer, or next summer if he opts-in, and Hayward in 2 years, so even they may not be long term options.

Like I said, it's a conundrum. What do you guys think? Should I just order a Yabusele jersey  :P

Hayward jersey should be good for a few more years if you actually want to wear it (just kidding).

If it makes you feel any better, I ordered a brand new Rajon Rondo white-colored shirt back in December 2014. I still haven't taken off the tag yet.

Hayward.

Gotta be the hardest player to trade on the team.

I got Gordie's shirt over Thanksgiving because it was the only one on sale that was still available in medium  :laugh:

I guess it wasn't very popular compared to Kyrie, Jayson, Jaylen or even Smart  :angel:

None of them, I think we could be in for a full rebuild.

I have an autographed Kyrie jersey. I’m all in. My thought process is come July whoever has a problem with Kyrie will get shipped to NO.
