Hauser makes a lot of sense to move.  Decent contract size, has good value, etc.  Would open up more trade avenues.

If we were going to keep Simons, Hauser would be a logical piece to move.

If we expect to move on from Simons, I think we need Hauser's shooting off the bench.  His value is probably at a low right now, but in general having a guy who has a .600+ eFG% and plays solid defense is a plus.

Would moving Hauser still keep the Celtics above the luxury tax threshold? I know his AAV is only around $10 million and I thought I read somewhere that the Celtics are $12 million over.

If we traded Hauser without taking anything back we'd still be slightly over the tax.  We're $12,086,489 over.  Hauser makes $10,044,644, and we'd also need to sign a 14th player.

Hauser, Tillman, Boucher, 1st

For

Zubac

That works under the cap rules as it keeps Boston under 2nd apron and doesn't increase LA salary.  That is the type of trade that is available with Hauser that isn't available with Simons or the tpe or minimum guys.

It's gonna take multiple first rounders, but I would do that for sure.

Dolphins who haven't fired their coach apparently reached out to Harbaugh

Harbaugh probably wants a more stable QB situation. Unless he's in love with Ewers or MIA trades for someone, idk why he'd be interested in Miami.

I'm not sure he'd want to be dealing with Allen & Maye for the foreseeable future either.

I'm still predicting the Giants for him. They have some great individual talent on both sides of the ball, a big market, and Dart seems promising and has mobility too.

The Draft / Re: Early look at the 2026 draft

As a Michigan fan, I have seen a lot of Morez Johnson Jr. this year.  He is a high-ceiling, low-floor PF.  It is not a given he will be in the draft next year, as I think Michigan will pay him $2-3 million to stay, so I think he will need to get a promise in the top 20-25 to remain in the draft.  If his consistency improves, he could blow up into a lottery pick in 2027.  Very talented, but the one most likely to make low-IQ plays of Michigan?s 3 bigs.

Except they know how Hauser works with Tatum and they have him locked up on the good contract vs. Simon who they don't know how he will fit with Tatum and has a lot more uncertainty with future contracts.

Top 4?

This draft seems very deep with top level talent. Obviously you have the top 3 in Peterson, Dybantsa, and Boozer but after that there are 5 or 6 guys all in the same general range.  Guys like Brown, Wilson, Flemings, Quaintance, Peat, Ament.  Not to mention a guy like Cenac who is obviously talented but dropping some on draft boards and may be in play more near where Boston will pick.  This is a draft to get more picks in, if possible not fewer.
