I am growing increasingly convinced that Boston gave Al the ability to test free agency and said come back to our offer which will remain standing once the free agency dust clears. I don't believe Al was offered 4 years by the Celtics. Maybe a 3 year offer with team option for 4th year.

Call it wishful thinking but my gut tells me he returns (you know what I voted). Plus this article dispelled the Dallas $112m rumor:

What are your thoughts on final destination for Al Horford?

You should add the Clippers to the poll since he's been linked there.

He’s going to Clippers with Leonard. And Clippers will be really really good. Rivers will no doubt be pumped coaching those guys.

By popular demand, the Clippers have been added.

I think Horford goes to Sacramento. Perfect fit with his experience and versatility on offense and defense to Fox/Hield/Barnes/Bagley.

A couple of the analysts on NBA TV thought that NOP may be a possibility.

I think he ends up in Dallas still.

I'd say the Clippers if I was more certain Kawhi was going there.

I went mystery team.  I think he might go back to Atlanta.  Gets a big contract from them that will expire when they have to re-up all of their young guys and gets to ride the young guys growth.  After his big contract is up, he can re-up again when Atlanta should project as a real contender.
2023 Historical Draft - Brooklyn Nets - 9th pick

Bigs - Pau, Amar'e, Issel, McGinnis, Roundfield
Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson
Guards - Cheeks, Petrovic, Buse, Rip

I hope Al goes to a team That can compete for a title.  He deserves a shot, he was true professional in his time with Boston.  I wish him the best.

I want it to be the Clippers if he is leaving.   

I would love if the Lakers still end up as the 2nd best team in LA.
