Doesn't it kinda feel like positioning the team to maybe get the privilege of getting swept by the Warriors in the Finals in a year or two?

I love the move. The Celtics won their offseason regardless of the KD. They attracted a major free agent and kept all their assets.

I still like it.  Horford is a great fit and moves us along to building a contender.  Stay the course, bring in some more talent, believe in Brad and the system and we can beat that team with depth and real basketball.

No, not really.  Depending on how his contract is structured, he may not even be there (could be a 1+1)

Absolutely love it.

We are on a treadmill to nowhere if it doesn't happen.

Durant isn't the only piece out there.

Good. It stinks of course. On the bright side, if we faced them in the Finals, we can guard 1-4 pretty well.

It makes us better. So it's still a great move.

Nothing's changed in that regard. We needed an upgrade in talent.

Durant was always a long shot, but we'd were closer to getting him than at least 27 other teams in the league.

Eastern conference contender. I can live with that. Go all in on Westbrook next year.

We got an awesome player. We'll be more fun to watch. Sure, the Warriors are going to win the next 3-5 titles, but we'll be enjoyable.

With Durant's foot and Curry's legs, nothing is a given.

Love the Horford signing.  I think he'll help make the Celtics better.  50+ wins is a very attainable goal for next season.  Maybe even 55?

That would be awesome.

Yes, it sucks that Durant chose OKC, but I still want to see Celtics management continue in their efforts to improve our team.

Still a great move. We still have cap space. I hope DA has a Plan B.

Still a great move.  Have to get to the Finals before worrying about the Warriors.

2017 free agent class - Westbrook, Griffin, Chris Paul, Haywood, all desperate to get out of the West.
