Still hoping for the QO and then we can pay him next season when we assuredly go into the tax (assuming Kyrie stays), but if we have to match a realistic offer from a team like the Kings (or full MLE from someone else), does that mean we will use the MLE? Since we would be over, why not try to add someone for the $5.3M?

Is there anyone still out there worth grabbing?

We’d have Kyrie-Smart-Rozier-Brown for wings, Hayward-Tatum-Morris-Ojeleye swings, Horford-Baynes-Theis-Williams bigs.

Don’t see who would come that’s worth it with such little playing time to go around. Depth is a great thing to have but it can also become an issue.

Other than Semi and Williams, everyone deserves 20+ mpg. Six or seven deserve 30+.

None.  Smart can be a restricted free agent for the next decade if he never signs an NBA contract between now and then.

October first is the deadline for Marcus Smart to sign the QO unless it is extended by the Celtics.

I am sure Danny has a plan B if Smart walks and the Celtics do not match. Might be Bird, might be a role player FA

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
The globe said the Smart is meeting with some teams. Things are heating up now.
"People look at players, watch them dribble between their legs and they say, 'There's a superstar.'  Well John Havlicek is a superstar, and most of the others are figments of writers' imagination."

I dont know how someone passes up 40 plus million.   Look what happened to Noel.

Funny thing is that Noel's former agent is Smart's agent.   ;D

While its clearly a CYA issue that everyone would blame others the reports I've heard is that Happy advised Nerlens to take that contract and Nerlens said no thinking he was going to get a max offer.

wow.  i did not know that.    he seems to have zero idea of the market.   Smart should have taken the deal last year from the Celtics.  4 for 48 seems like a fair value but Marcus thinks he's worth 14 plus.

Sherrod is never right about anything.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Smart, according to source, would "consider" the four-year extension offer Celtics made last October, which was worth more annually than the three-year, $33 million deal just signed by Dante Exum.
