Celtics Off-Season News

Certainly the 2 guys Brad has signed are defend first grinders. Would like at least one addition that can actually shoot and score.

Such as?

I like Terrance Davis. Just someone that can score. Maybe Hauser is that guy finally.

Davis is barely above league average in shooting, but he could be good. I believe in Hauser though. Just need Joe to believe too

Hauser could easily fit that role but he needs minutes that are regular. Like you said about Joe..

Davis is also more of a shot creator for himself than is Hauser, which is useful.  About half of his 2s were assisted, compared to almost 80% for Hauser.  But I’d also like Joe to believe in Hauser.  I think both of them could play here.

Agree, they’re different types of players. Hauser provides value almost entirely off-ball.

Hauser played in lots of games last season, but I think he can step up and play closer to 20MPG than 15. I rate him.

Davis could fit in too, and he’s shown some ability to be a quality player. He’s a very high level athlete, which we can’t have enough of

Watford cleared waivers according to Keith Smith's twitter

I'm surprised that he made it through waivers.  He was on a minimum, right?

At the very least, give the kid a two-way.

Chances are increasing that Grant signs the QO, every day this goes on, perhaps the C's will negotiate a 3-year deal with an ETO, that way in trade his bird rights remain (i think) and he will be off the books before they have to duck below the super apron.

I wonder if Walsh will go on a 2 way. If this happens they could still add a wing and a big, assuming they keep Davison and Kornet.  Ideally, for me, they would add T. Davis and Watford

Tatum definitely has the respect and influence around the league. That's not something I'd take for granted even during times of frustration. Haven't had that in a while in Boston besides maybe that brief period with Isaiah Thomas in the mid-2010s

It’s a video of MJ and Tatum goofing about at a (somewhat?) impromptu meeting in Paris

I think they’re there for a Nike Jordan Brand event. I think JB is in Paris too but for a different reason.

NBA sources on Twitter like Stein and Cato are saying that the Mavs are trying to work a S&T with the Celtics for Grant by possibly trading Tim  Hardaway jr to the Spurs.

What or who do we get in return?

That is interesting. So we'd get a big trade exception. Useful.

Spurs need a SG. They only really have Devin Vassell on their squad. The rest are PGs or forwards. Timmy Hardaway Jr could be a useful short term option for them. Help balance their team. Give them some perimeter scoring & shooting.

They could pay Grant well over the MLE if that’s the agreement that was worked out.
