Just saw a couple reports off of instagram from Steve Kyler that the C's may be going after him.

Sign and trade with Rozier was one guess.

I think this would be plan B if the AD price is too high. Or maybe Stevens and DA have a new idea about how to build the team going into next season we haven't caught wind of yet.

This wouldn't be a bad thing, I know people will crap all over it, but at least Capela is locked for an other 4 years with out breaking the bank.

I like this more than AD. Capela would fit nicely next to Horford and we wouldn’t have to give up the farm like we would for AD. Also, I don’t think we can S&T Rozier can we? Or we can but we only get partial salary credit?

Haven't you heard? Some Celtics fans are complaining that he can't shoot 3s and is worth too much and would not be a good fit  ::)

Sign and trade Morris plus Yabu plus pick 20?
Not a bad idea to consolidate a little bit

Boo! Name one normal big who played well under CBS. Don't say baynes because he can actually shoot and CBS didn't have him playing anything close to how cap plays! Gonna be a waste of money and assets.  :( Williams could be cappella but CBS doesn't have time for players like that. I get cap is already good at the defensive things Williams isn't but offensively, yuck! Name one guy who is good at lobs on this team... gonna be ugly.

All of which is true. Unless the coach is changing.


S/N: this is probably not even close to reality. Celtics rumors are never true or never come to fruition.

If we are over cap we can only get 50% of salary back.

But sending them baynes, rozier sign and trade at 15 mill per and yabuselle works.

Very difficult to imagine a sign and trade that works for Houston. They aren't taking our junk..

Houston want another star to go all in on Harden. Remember that when you consider what goes to them...

Houston fans seem pretty convinced that Horford would be traded as part of the deal.

It does make sense for both teams, Capela fits our timeline if we choose to build around the Brown and Tatum. The top of the Eadt is now loaded with high quality big man depth and you could argue Capela might be better suited to hold things down in the middle than Horford.

Horford gives Houston a floor stretching presence that can unlock some sets that I'm sure D'antoni's been wishing he could run. Horford is close to Chris Paul in age and game and could be a benefit to their locker room.

Don't know if I'd do it but I do think Capela would work well here. Time will tell.

This would be a rather bizarre move with or without Kyrie resigning.

Can’t see this coming to fruition.

AD makes sense, this one doesn’t IMO.

Sure, but we've also seen that Brad Stevens' coaching philosophy has not panned out either (if this season is any big indication) so that's gotta change!

This is what came to my mind as well... makes sense for both parties... but I think it would also include Williams and a pick from their side

What... how does this make sense? Horford can do everything that Capela can do, but Capela can’t do much of what Horford can... y’all need to watch a Capela game I’m not at all sure why y’all want him. It’s not like he’s going to progress. He is what he is, there is no like potential there. A big who can’t shoot will kill us, this is legit a step alll the way back.
