 According to CB staff on the main page. I'm all for it, what else are we going to do with all this cap room, stuff it in the owners pockets.

 I feel it's important to give this big money to a quality person. Giving Whiteside that much money would leave a sour taste in the blue collar people's mouth. Al's a good dude. And we could really use his skill set.

 Horford should pick up the tab of 80% of all team dinner's. Over 28 million per year for a declining 30 year old Horford. Unreal!

They can. Doesn't mean they will.

They can but the issue seems to be do they want to.

Thomas Bradley Smart Brown and Crowder will make a combined 28 mil next season.

I started another thread about this, but Al Horford is truly terrible rebounder.  His defensive rebounding rate is 144th among all NBA players:

Who can play alongside him to compensate?  Certainly not Sullinger or Amir.  We'd be slow as molasses.

Thats what his number is because there are a number of teams that desire him. If you want Horford, thats what it is going to cost. Horford is a major upgrade over Sully and fits perfectly in our system. Would love to hear the news tonight after the Celtics meefing with him that he has decided to sign in Boston.

His name rhymes with Tight Flowered.
