Just like Brad said, looks like Al is moving on from Boston. He has taken out the Celtics in his X bio. All reports have him going to the Warriors. I was hoping he?d retire a Celtic. He truly embodied what being a Celtic is, but leaving the team twice just leaves some bitterness in my mouth. I know he wants a shot at another ring, and that he?d probably stay if JT didn?t get injured, but still. It just doesn?t seem right that he?s not retiring as a Celtic.

As long as it?s GSW and not LAL I?m good with it.

nothing to be bitter about.  why throw away what may be his last season on a team that will struggle to even make the play-in.  if Tatum were healthy or Jrue and Zinger were kept, Al would likely have stayed.

I understand Al?s decision 100%. I?m just bitter with how the circumstances played out. Injuries, the 2nd apron?.it just sucks.

Al could've hung up it after 2022, but he stayed for a few more rides. Lived through the bizarre ending of 2023, celebrated a champion in 2024, and getting a second-round exit in 2025.

I thought if he were to go to a contender, it would be with another team in the East or a top 3 team in the West. The Warriors, albeit old, probably aren't strong contenders.

I'm cool with Al leaving he doesnt have much left to offer anyways. However he has left twice during retool years.

I wonder, how many players in Celtics history would have turned down that offer from Philly.

Al takes the bag. I'm not hating just pointing out the obvious.
