Saw one report that Otto Porter will be bought out & C's top of the list to sign him.  Does Otto have anything left?

Was once talented.

What happened to Porter the past two years? Was it a big injury? His trajectory was looking good. He can still shoot the 3 very well. As far as bench goes, he would be a no brainer.

Windy said Celtics fans going to be in their feelings for how little Denver pays for AG.

Yuck

An equivalent deal for Boston would be Thompson, Nesmith and a first.  I had said before I didn't think Danny would pay that much for Gordon.  I am disappointed that we did not get Gordon but Denver paid a lot for kind of a middle of the road player who doesn't really have a position.  It makes more sense for Denver to stretch some to get  Gordon.  They are closer to it than we are.

I hope Danny is not done.  Still love to see Collins or Markkanen or someone like that.

I would've done that deal in a heartbeat and I like Nesmith quite a lot. Thompson gone opens up things for Timelord, Nesmith likely isn't getting on the court ever with Fournier here, and hat 1st would've ended up being another bench warmer.

The question is would you rather have Gordon for Thompson, Nesmith, and a 1st, or Fournier for two 2nds.  Due to the tax/cap we weren't able to make both deals.

The Oklahoma City Thunder are finalizing trading George Hill to the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell

Which essential means that Danny will do nothing now that Philadelphia has loaded up too.

He’d be a great fit here.  Really good all around player.  I hope we get him.

It means to me that Lowry probably isn't going to Philly.  Much rather see Hill there than Lowry.

I'd far, far prefer Gordon for Thompson, Nesmith and a 1st if that was a remote possibility.

I'm not impressed at all with the Fournier deal. It's essentially the bandaid move for an expiring contract that Ainge claimed he wouldn't make.

I still want to see another deal.  We need a power forward.  If it’s just this deal alone, I don’t get it.  We’re better, but not enough and Fournier is a free agent after the season.
