Hope it's a smoke screen or a three way...

Could he be using this to drive down Horford's price.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
The more important questions in this saga:

1) How badly does Morey want something for Howard before Howard opts out and other teams offer him big money?

2) Why doesn't Danny just wait for Dwight to opt out this offseason if he likes him so much?

I'm slightly worried that if Danny trades for him now it means he's willing to give Dwight some BIG money with his birdrights.
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

Not sure is anyone's posted this, but FWIW....

Durrant an't going to play there .   No coach,  sorry bench, stupid GM decsions galor , one demenionsional offense of watching Harden play ISO ball.  Ibaka and Westbrooke is better material than Harden and HowArd clown ball.
