How do you want this off season to go?

[celticpride1]

Look as fans we all want to win titles every year. With Kyrie and Al most likely gone. It’s opens up time for the kids to play more and lead. As a fan do you want the youth movement or would you rather try and get a Bradley Beal type player if you could and try and contend right away?

Posted this on another thread, but I'll post it here too:

Ship out Yabusele somehow. I admittedly don't know how exactly, but just do it. Salary dump him somewhere. Then we'll have about 38M in cap space to work with I believe.

1. Sign D'Angelo Russell to a near max deal (around ~4/104M). A max would be 4/117M with 1st year at 27M.

2. Sign 1 of Looney, Dedmon or Ed Davis. I personally wouldn't even be against taking a flyer on DeMarcus Cousins if he doesn't command much this summer either, but realistically I'd add one of those 3 guys. I don't assume either would cost more than 9M a year (maybe Looney gets 10M+)

3. Sign Nerlens Noel to a contract using room exception

PG: D'Angelo Russell/Marcus Smart/Wanamaker
SG: Jaylen Brown/Romeo Langford/Carson Edwards
SF: Jayson Tatum/Gordon Hayward/Semi Ojeyele
PF: Gordon Hayward/Grant Williams/Daniel Theis
C: 1 of Ed/Dedmon/Cousins/Looney + Nerlens Noel + Timelord

I'm going to assume Theis and Wanamaker stay but if not, then that'll be fine though I imagine we might need to add another cheap player for depth in a certain area.

How does this look to folks?

Would be fine with a near max or even full max for. Paying the 25% max for a guy in his age 23-26 seasons seems like it's likely to be a good, if not great value. But other than that I'd like to see us go for shorter term big money deal no longer than two year like say absorbing Steven Adams or Andre Drummond. Or using the space on a bad contract of no longer than 2 years like Nic Batums in exchange for draft assets. No Vuc, paying a center max for four years is gonna be a bad contract and I'd rather just see the Jays get those offensive touches.

[rondofan1255]

i have low expectations, not expecting a playoff team

let Morris and Rozier walk, i dont enjoy watching them play

no overpaying a good role player with the max just because the max is available

assemble an easier team to root for with any available roster spots, cliche but last year sucked even with a good team

[OHCeltic]

Since Al and Kyrie wants out of Boston the only way I listen to them is in a sign and trade deal. I wouldnt even resign them to the Celtics you made your bed so lye in it.  Lets go young and have fun.

[Who]

Compete.

Contending is not an option. Do not have the horses to get there with Kyrie and Horford leaving. I do not want to tank either. Ainge can put a quality team on the floor. Solid playoff team like Indiana. With upside for further growth in the future (from Jaylen / Tatum & Memphis pick). That gives the team a path to Contention further down the road.

But for now, just compete. Play hard. Build a team that plays together and builds good habits. Our young players (Tatum especially) need that.

[dreamgreen]

I want and expect Danny to bring in PF and Center and hopefully a PG or resign Rozier which I'm low on at the moment. I expect the C's to be competitive next year!

[Silky]

If Williams is as great as people are trying to make him out to be, then the pg lineup is set.

We need Thomas Bryant, and another PF to cone off the bench that can play well off of hayward. Thinking thad young here.

Then you add vet depth. A sg/pg, a sf/pf and a center. 

[Csfan1984]

Resign Irving and Theis.
Trade Bucks 1st, Smart, GWilliams and Yab for Turner.

Irving/Edwards
Brown/Langford
Hayward/Semi
Tatum/Theis
Turner/Timelord

[PAOBoston]

It’s apparent based off their picks that they want to have a mentality shift. All the guys they drafted are supposedly good character guys and grinders. I expect the plucky, over achieving Cs to be back next year.

Why they need to do is grab a big or two to solidify the rotation and some end of bench veterans because the roster is a little too young right now.

I would much rather keep Smart, Williams and the first than get Turner. People here would hate his inconsistency

[MichiganAdam]

2 decent front court players and a PG added.  2 fit in the cap space and third in exception.

While I would hate to give up Smart, I would be very much in favor of bringing in Turner. He is signed for several more years at an attractive salary, has DPOY potential, and can shoot from outside. He is the kind of player who would allow Hayward or Tatum to play at PF while also being a threat from deep.

Trading Smart and pieces also opens up the possibility of signing somebody like Russell to a max contract, as well as giving us several more million to maybe hold on to Rozier or sign another quality FA.

I agree that Turner is a good defender who can shoot, but he's not a good passer and is quite a bad rebounder. Think we can do better

[ManUp]

I want Julius Randle(4yrs/80m maybe)and a solid veteran center with range.

Randle put up 21/8/3 in just 30 minutes a night and shot a career high 34% from three last season. His defense against centers is bad, but if you play him at PF he's solid. Randle needs guys who will space the floor for him to really succeed on offense so we would need a stretch 5(Gasol or Lopez maybe) ideally.
