If Boston can’t get a big in free agency then a trade has to be coming. Front court is the worst in the NBA right now
We are prone to our exaggerations on Celticsblog, but I actually don't think this is an exaggeration.

Not a lot of value left as we sit and wait to open up more money.

Man, I really wanted Robin Lopez...

How did the Bucks sign Lopez? These other teams seem to have more money than us.

Boston NEVER seems to have enough money. What is Danny and his son doing with Wyc's money?

They only had to lose key guys like Brogdon and Mirotic. Looks like he will sign for MLE or somewhere close.

Danny Ainge better have a plan to acquire bigs, or Kemba Walker might opt to sit out for the whole season and request a trade.

Might be a reason why Celtics players are leaving this team left and right- can't stand Danny Ainge and his weird business practices.

Yeah. Parting with Smart or Brown might have to be done unfortunately.

Seems like Danny is really hampered by this uncertainty about the exception. Letting a lot of potential stopgap big options go at the moment.

They used the room MLE apparently. I'm not sure if we had that available to us. I thought we had the full MLE due to the Rozier S&T but I also don't know what I'm talking about.

No, we definitely AT LEAST have the Room Exception, though we're trying to get the full MLE.

That said, it doesn't matter. He can go play on a contending team with his twin brother in Milwaukee for the same price as playing in Boston. Pretty easy choice for him lol
