Danny : "I'm excited"

[Geo123]

The max cap space does no good unless you can actually attract max players to sign with you. Who out of the 2017 FA fits that bill? Reaching and overpaying Gordon Hayward??

Lol, he's just saying that. We'll try for George in 2018, I still think we have a good shot. Also, we're building through the draft. Been saying this on this board but people want to ignore reality.

People ignore it because building through the draft makes no sense when you're the #2 seed in the conference.

I'm just telling you what they're going to do. I would recommend listening to Wyc's interviews. He literally said he thinks they can win a championship with this team. He said there may be a chance they don't need a superstar to win...Ainge and the front office have been pretty transparent.

You aren't going to win a championship with this team.  I haven't heard Wyc say this is a Championship level team.  Please provide a link.  Nobody else in the league believes that either.  I have even heard Ainge say this team has faults.  You don't have the rebounding or rim protection to win it all. 

If you look at signing someone this summer (then you say goodbye to KO and maybe others).  Then if we get lucky and get the #1 pick and choose a PG I agree with Woj, IT will have issues with it, especially going into his contract year.  Both of the players you stashed this year form the draft want to come over next year.  Also, looking forward after next year you will lose either Bradley or IT because both are FA and both will want big contracts and someone will pay them.  You can't sign everyone.

We as fans better hope they don't believe that, because if they do, then this team has bigger problems than we realize.  You don't need a superstar to win?  Get out of here with that.  There's one team, literally one, in the last 50 years that you can definitively say "that team didn't have a true superstar" and they still won the title...and that was the 2004 Pistons.  So essentially, if you want to just build a team based on depth and not having true superstar talent, that gives you about a 5% chance of winning a championship.

I really hope Ainge and Wyc don't believe that.

In the interview last week, Wyc used the Piston's team as a comp, hahah. I wasn't exactly thrilled to hear it too, but was pretty confident nothing would happen during the deadline after hearing it.

DANNY SUX!!

that's why we're an 8th seed team with no assets!

there's nowhere to go! we're officially on the treadmill

Exactly, TP. I'm a bit disappointed about Tucker, because he was so cheap, but I'm relieved. I'm hopeful we'll land Terrence Jones or Bogut after buyouts.

TP back at ya

i didnt realy want a trade. even a small one

buyouts happen. we could be fortunate on that front. if not, no big deal. we aint winnin' this year without a great deal of luck

i'm just gonna sit back and enjoy this team

They can let Bradley walk right out of the door and let Fultz take his spot. I hope Danny does not waste a big deal on Bradley. Resign Thomas

And that is the problem. Not guarentee Bradley comes back healthy any time soon. Last 2 seasons he cannot be counted on

[fantankerous]

Watching the Danny haters hate is going to be awesome.  Keep it coming.

he could have made a minor move.. atleast admit that..

I have no problem with rationally criticizing DA for not acquiring Tucker or Cousins.  It's the hysteria that I find ridiculous and so entertaining. We

[CoachBo]

I'm not excited to waste IT's MVP-level season and one of Horford's last few seasons as an effective player.

This may be the most accurate statement on this board in months.

Ainge quit on this team.

Yeah I'm not providing you a link. Go google it. It was on Felger and Mazz last week. Listen and weep. Literally said he thinks there is a chance we can without a superstar.

It's called best of both worlds.

Let's see how excited we all are when Raptors crush us tomorrow!

[Csfan1984]

Excited to know he can get a ton for IT when he trades him and his emoj eyes on draft night.

Time to embrace the "Development".
