Al Horford on if he wants to continue his career in Boston:

“That’s something I haven’t even stopped to think about, but yes.” #Celtics

OR does he really mean....are you crazy? I'm not giving up on 30 million dollars lol


End of the day, good to hear that he wants to return...   Danny has to go to work though, because you can't expect him to do most of the heavy lifting up front...  not sure if Time Lord is the answer, but this team needs a legit frontcourt presence to play with AL

Still think it's unfortunate the Celts didn't take a chance on Harry Giles (buy a pick, while he was dropping like a fly in the draft) =T

I watched a few Kings games. We didn’t miss anything by not taking Giles. Not sure what you’ve seen in him but he looks pretty awful to me.

I want Al back too. I would love it if he restructured his last year to a 3 year deal at a lower amount, that would give us some cap relief and also some team stability.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

Take the $30m Al! Financially I think that works out better for us. Now that we're a tax team the repeater tax is coming in a few years. I'd rather pay him more this year and look for a smaller contract next year than a medium one starting this summer

I really hope he means it.

In this market, I would imagine Horford opts out seeking his last big payday, something to the tune of 3 years/$75M.

Carris LaVert didn't recover overnight. I bet Danny would have taken MPJ too if he had the chance.

opt out, Al. 

Will make it easier for us to blow it up.

We have too much talent to totally blow it up.
