I hipe hayward reallllly wamts to go to indiana.

I know they bought a home there, i know he and his woman os from there.



I reaaaaaly hope indy does NOT wamt him

Why would anyone want to leave with such supportive fans!

Signing with the Knicks or hawks over staying in Boston? Can’t see it. Has to be something else

If either of those two give him a 4 year deal at the max that they can offer thats incentive enough, he won out. Same situation as Horford, you go for the money if someone throws it at you.

That contract would be toxic in a year

I just don't see how he fits (what should be) the timeline for ATL or NYK, if they are building properly that is.

If he does walk for nothing...use MLE and company for vets

Shop Kemba. Not sure what your can get but explore it

Until Giannis is completely off the table next offseason, I think teams like Miami and Dallas are holding off on longterm deals.

As others have said, he can go to Atlanta or NYK and yes, we get nothing.

He's going to talk to other teams he wants to play for more, because nothing is stopping him. If any of them want him, it's the same situation as before 5:00. They need us to cooperate.

The longer this takes, the more likely it is we might get something we want.  Its a form of fan torture, really.

Forget about Hayward

If the Celts get a brand new basketball for him = better than nothing

Lineup next season is

Timelord
Tatum
Brown
Smart
Walker

Gwill/Kanter
Nesmith
Langford
Edwards
Pritchard

Sign UFA - Tatum bestie Giles

Atlanta was going after Rondo and Galinari so I guess they dont care about timelines, and the Knicks are the Knicks...

He made about $750k per game in Boston.

Exactly. He and the Celtics could be easily using NY and Atlanta for leverage to get a good sign and trade with the Pacers.

This has the potential to be Horford redux: player entering the back-nine of his career signs for silly money somewhere else, while the team feels it’s dodged a bullet a year later. If some team is willing to pay Hayward $100m+ over four years, then so be it. Hurts, but that’s the right move.

Per Murphy:

Hayward's opt-out viewed more as a formality. League source said it's still possible he returns to C's in restructured deal, unless, ala Al Horford, he receives home run offer from Atlanta or New York. "Gordon doesn't even know right now."

No chance

Celts cant afford everyone. Tatum max around the corner

A team of:
Trae Young / Rajon Rondo
Kevin Huerter / Cam Reddish
Gordon Hayward / De'Andre Hunter
John Collins / Danilo Gallinari
Clint Capela / Onyeka Okongw

Is actually a cool team. I'd like to watch them
