Sporting News: C's targeting Griffin, will make major deal soon

[DefenseWinsChamps]

If the Brooklyn picks are what's holding up this trade than good. I don't wwmt doc rivers anywhere near those picks. If he wanted them so bad he should of stayed the course of our rebuild. Luckily for us we have a much better coach in brad Stevens and wouldn't be anywhere near where we are today if we still had doc running the ship

Reading deadmik3's posts the last 24 hrs, the deal will go down because Ainge finally threw in the Nets18. Doc didn't want to do the deal with just Johnson and Bradley. He wanted the Nets pick. From the timing, it looks like Danny finally caved on the pick the last few hours. He also says it's likely there is verbal agreement Griffin will sign with the Celtics.

who the hell is deadmilk3?

deadmau5's cousin.

Who is that?

How to spot a bogus twitter account and someone who is just looking to 'report' false information?

• look at their username - if it seems weird its bogus
• look at who they are referring to on Twitter if that person has a few followers (<500)- its bogus
• if they don't have a profile and/or nudes on their timeline  - its bogus
• MOST IMPORTANTLY - if they have less than 500 CB posts - its bogus

Any one else care to jump in on the false reporting???

how about if i dont like the rumor? can i consider it false then?

not sure that qualifies.

Doc must want Bradley to help stop Curry. And Ainge is talking up Rozier today.  Bradley wasn't one of those who met either Horford or Durant.

Bingo......Danny keeps Smart and KO by his side .    Favorite sons.

AB may still be sore over missing the huge payday.

FWIW Deadmik3 on twitter at 1:12 pm  says deal for Griffin is Bradley, Johnson and Nets '18 pick. "Announcement soon."

Straight up? No Sac involvement? I think that's a fair deal. It's essentially what people were saying for Love + a Nets pick. One thing is though, with the talk about why we got the Clippers pick would that not be involved?

No Sac here. This deal is a steal for the Celtics if Griffin is healthy and willing to sign here. I would guess they would have his assurance of that. It figures Doc-Danny would be in the best position to make a deal. Griffin has become available.

I think it's fair for both actually. Bradley would be huge in the Western conference. We are lucky that we are in the position that we can help mitigate his loss in a deal. Sometimes depth is a beter asset than a star but for them I guess you need fair value regardless

I can totally see this. Doc being like "if only I had AB again, we could totally stop Curry!"

Could see some sort of arrangement where LAC ends up with Gay, Bradley and picks.

I think that this is just a smokescreen for a Butler and Anthony Davis blockbuster deal to Boston. Jerebko, Olynyk, Amir and the Memphis 2019.

The proposed deals - and I'll believe them when I see them, since Ainge doesn't like to give up value anymore, apparently - are a lot more believable than some of the posted ideas on this board, where we give up nothing and get Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain in return.

Must mean Ainge wants him gone. Or that taking Smart and Olynyk was Ainge propping them up. Or something in between. One of those.

A Sherrod just tweeted that there is no trade.

Phew! Thank god. Now I've got REAL clarity.

What's funny about all these rumors is this:

American society started slipping

coach bo=donald trump confirmed

I saw a tweet about it

But Trump is the guy who said "All I know is what's on internet."

Is he the guy who is always wrong?
