Anthony Davis is asked about the Boston Celtics not being on his list. “They are on my list.”


I'm just so happy....I dont know what to do with my hands right now. He also said Boston was never not on his list.

Well well well who didn’t see this coming? Nice try Rich Paul with the bs stories prior to the deadline. If I was AD I’d fire this guy ASAP; find someone who actually cares about my best interests.

Unless Rich Paul said, "the Celtics and other teams can't make a serious offer until the summer, are you sure that you want to try this now?  It basically means that we have to force you to the Lakers, but it could absolutely fall through"

Boy that's really magnanimous of him, given the trade deadline debacle. He has one more year on his contract. All he is doing is stating the obvious.

BFD....and I don't mean Boston Fire Dept.

  • A true Celtic plays with heart.
4 picks,  Jaylen, Williams and some filler.  We keep Smart and Tatum.

I can't imagine winning a title without Smart.   That will be awful.

I can't imagine that the Pelicans would've been willing to wait... For Jaylen Brown after all this time.

That being said, I still think Jaylen Brown's potential versus Tatum is relatively almost the same. His defensive potential as a two way player cannot be underestimated.

If I were the Pelicans, I'd be asking for Tatum and Smart. Tatum has the talent to be a franchise player and Smart is a very good combo guard who could form a good backcourt with Jrue Holiday.

How exactly did what Davis said today make it better for the Celtics? The Pels are going to ask for who they want regardless of anything Davis has to say.

Tatum, Brown, MLE, Yabu, Williams, picks for Davis
Gordie Sign-and-trade for Durant (assuming he tells then he is leaving anyway)

Resign Rozier to anything less thatn 15 million a year (Dinwiddie, Exum, and Van Fleet have set the market well less than that). Resign Morris to a long-term contract. Resign Wanamaker.

Irving-Smart-Durant-Davis-Horford with Baynes-Rozier-Ojeleye-Wanamaker-Morris-Vetmin-Vetmin-19draftpick.

That's a really good basketball team.

I’d just roll with AD/Kyrie/Hayward if Durant is leaving anyways. I think it’s a more balanced core as well.

I really dont see AD being a good move at this point in time.

I dont think he is going to stay, and I think Kyrie knows it...I dont think Kyrie cares though.

Team definitely needs a bigman, but do not sell farm on Davis.

Does Danny still go after AD if Kyrie leaves in free agency?

Yes but I'm not sure he moves Tatum in that situation.

Rozier does not want to be a back up PG.
