Well that was classy, Brad Stevens and Celtics organization reached out to the Indiana Pacers after Haliburton sustained his Achilles injury. Telling them if there's anything they can do to help Haliburton since the C's got one on their own.

Celtics/Pacers bromance might be the new cool thing. Happily pulled for the Boston Pacers esp when they beat the Bucks, the Cavs, and curbstomped the Knicks (most satisfying). Really wished they shut SGA and the Thunder up

Happy 15 year anniversary to one of the more ill-advised PR stunts of all time to those who celebrate.

Looks like Nikola Jokic won't be signing a contract extension this season.

Does that mean Mark Walter in LA gonna get ready to offer him the big bucks in a couple years?

I?m sure plenty of teams will. But Jokic would be taking a pay cut for basically no reason if he signed that extension.

He can get more money next summer if he waits

Wonder if they will be doing the same for Jalen Williams. Those guys were from the same draft. Chet was 3rd overall. Jalen was 12th.

Pay him or trade him, because he earned it.

So this is gonna be the trend now? Max your guys and compete for 2-3 years. Then you choose which max guy to keep and who to trade when the taxes pile up? How many chips do you guys think will this OKC core get before the team is forced to break them up?

Are they not able to keep the 3 guys together?

I thought Hartenstein was the cap casualty. And maybe some of the highly paid role players like Dort & Caruso.
