[SparzWizard]

The Boston #Celtics are indeed interested in a reunion with point guard Isaiah Thomas and there have been talks about a potential deal, a league source tells @HoopAnalysisNet.

Are we giving him the brinks truck this time?

I guess if PBS waits long enough eventually the money around the league will be gone and there will be a few decent vets who will have no choice but to take a 1 yr vet min deal with the cs.

Maybe he will pull out another decent european vet like Theis or Wanamaker out of his butt at the last minute? We can hope can't we?

That’s probably the plan?

Auguste is on the summer league roster. Hayes is not.

Are there any updates on what is happening with the Tristan Thompson trade?

I vaguely remember reading something about it having to be pushed back to August 6th. Not sure why

Kind hoping it falls through tbh.  Need all the depth we can get up front with the uncertainty around Horford and Rob Williams.  Moses was supposed to be that insurance but now hes gone.

Let’s just hope that we get a decent big in return with the trade being “expanded”. As many poster here have said, Marvin Bagley could be a possible piece coming back.

Patty Mills signs 2yr 12M with the Nets per Woj.

Sixers sign Drummond for the vet minimum.  Also sign Georges Niang 2yr/6.7M. 

Surprised Drummond couldn't get more than vet minimum.  Really surprised he's going to the Sixers.  Weird fit with Embiid and Simmons on court and then there's the history between Embiid and Drummond.  He will be a nice fill in when Embiid misses games.

Embiid and Drummond seems like an odd duo indeed. As does Gobert and Whiteside

I played against him in high school and when he was down at MSAC for some rec-league fun in the off-season. He absolutely smoked me, obviously. Love to see him get a shot.

Hahahaha - that must be awesome though. Playing against someone and then seeing them in the NBA.

I'm at MSAC 3 nights a week I play in the lowest of leagues though.

It’s pretty awesome! I’ll never forgive him for dunking on me when I was 17 though…

I only really get down on Monday’s to play with my brothers joke team that hound low leagues too. Haven’t been able to take it seriously with postgrad and work

That is a low key sneaky good signing for Philly.

Niang has shot 40% plus from three for 3 straight years and takes a large number. About one attempt every 4 minutes. He is a legit shooter.

Exactly the type of support player they need next to Embiid (and if he stays Ben Simmons).

Niang would've been great for the C's bench. Far better than any of our backup PFs - Grant Williams or Jabari Parker.
