- For the draft you have the 16, 28, 33, 45 picks.  Unable to trade up
- For the FA period (minus Aldrige, Jordan, Love, Monroe, Millsap, Butler, Leonard)
Example, Instead of signing Amir would you have overpaid for Caroll?
- No trade transactions

what is your starting lineup? 1st ones off the bench?

Instead of Rozier I would have taken a chance on Bobby Portis. I think he would be a versatile player for Boston.

Don't have a problem with the FA signings.

with drafting Portis, would you have skipped on signing Amir?

I realy liked Harrel, too bad he was chosen 1 spot above our Mickey pick

I think if Portis were drafted that would've been seen as the Bass replacement, so yes, I probably would've skipped on signing Amir.

If Amir weren't signed I would have targeted a perimeter shooting swingman since Celtics need improved 3 point shooting.

On drafting, I'll trust Ainge for now. We don't have the luxury of seeing these guys work out, so have to trust his judgement on that regard.

As for FA, well Monroe of course. He should've gone after him no doubt in my opinion. And we would've had him.

Monroe did not list Boston as one of the teams he would like to visit/speak to.

If he had a chance, cant believe he rather play for the Bucks vs Celtics

would have taken Portis at 16.  not knowing that Wood would have gone undrafted, probably taken him at 33 (if for no other reason than to see triboy freak out ;D ) .  knowing that Wood would slip past that point, take him at 45 instead of Thornton. 

Not figuring Portis to contribute right away, I have no issue with signing Amir (I like him as a player so probably a biased opinion there).  I think that would give the team a better balance and negate the need to resign Jonas. 

Would resign Crowder and probably really push for Harris.  not enamored with Harris but think he provides the scoring we could use and if that failed, would push Orlando to blow their money on him.

I would have taken Rondae Hollis-Jefferson at 16. I thought all the other picks were great.

As to free agents, I probably would have used our cap space to do the deal Philly did, which I believe could have been taken into our various TPE's. Then we could have went over the salary cap to bring back Crowder.

That being said, we are worse this year with my suggested path and we have less cap space next year, although we have even more quality draft picks.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

The issue with Harris is that the Magic will match any offer.  Harris and the agent need to openly say or communicate, he does not want to play for the Magic.  So instead, lets workout a sign and trade. 

Pretty quiet regarding Harris the past few days. I wonder if something is in the works

I saw it the other way around Ainge didn't make a call, and considering that David Falk is Monroe's agent, I'm quite confident that if Ainge wanted a meeting, he would've gotten it.

I think Harris is waiting for LMA and Jordan deals to get done.  I'd guess he ends up with the Lakers or the Knicks.
