Good. Hopefully he gets to go somewhere where he can really contend.

I still like the Adams deal that was floated where we send Baynes to OKC and take the rest of Adams’ salary back in cap space. That’d work out for all parties involved.

That said - I wonder if we’re planning on making a run at a 7-9 year vet and that’s the reason to try and trade Baynes for cap space, but who would that be? The only names that come to mind that likely fit our current needs are Kemba, Russell, and Vuc.

The other benefit of moving Baynes - BRING ON MORE TIMELORD!  ;D

I am guessing if they can't find a good way to keep the team a contender this year, they are doing Baynes a favor in trying to find him a team that could.   



The reason I think that is most teams are offering 1st round picks (or some other compensation) to get teams to help clear the cap.   The Celtics are looking for assets coming back.

Only if the Celtics panic and use all the cap room on what ever near great player is left, no matter the fit or age.

You can’t tell ?

They’re giving the keys to Rozier, signing and trading for Durant, and ending up with a starting lineup of:

Rozier
Smart
Tatum
Durant
Capela

Makes sense.

If they plan on renouncing all the free agents, shedding Baynes is another $5 million off the books.

Believe it. They love Rozier and rightfully so. Both coach and GM truly believe he’s a full time starter at the point in this league, and he’s proven them right

Except both he and Smart are worse players than Brown.

Rozier is also worse than Hayward. In fact, Rozier is really just garbage
