2016-2017 Gordon Hayward Thread (We Did It Guys! Fireworks!!!)

[hodgy03038]

I read somewhere earlier that the meeting with Gordon was going to be a small grp of people from the Celtics side, so i highly any info about the meeting will be leaked.

Just heard he's telling his camp his wife and family love Miami.

Are you making this up?

Miami has always been the biggest challenger

I did hear last week that wife did not want to stay in Utah. This was on ESPN radio. I had not heard that about liking Miam

If he's going to file for divorce, wouldn't it be wise to do that before a new contract? 

Gordon has a bigger purpose in life... and it starts with Banner 18.  I'll take one for the team and live with Robyn in some remote location, like Miami.

I just looked all over the sports websites, Twitter, and Bleacher Report, and I didn't see a single shred of anything substantiating this, not even from unreliable sources and Heat sources. If this was true, it'd be all over the place by now, especially in the Heat circles.

I really think we shouldn't talk about this for 24 hours. Like how you don't talk to a pitcher during a no hitter. Don't do it. Nothing good can happen.

At least post the source

Let's see...Team with the best current roster and in position to contend? Advantage Boston. Team with the most promising future assets? Advantage Boston. Team that has a coach who has established rapport with Hayward and is considered to be one of the greatest basketball minds in the game today? Advantage Boston.

Professional basketball players get to retire in their mid to late thirties and can live wherever they want and enjoy life however they want at that point. Not to mention that players can spend summers wherever they want. If Hayward's priority is contending and sustained success, the choice is clear: Boston.

[incoherent]

I've pretty much considered Hayward a Celtic since the day our season ended.  At this point Im just curious what we do with Jae.

Or they just want the most money and stay near current friends and family. Griffin, Lowry, and Hayward come to mind here.

Miami has always been the biggest challenger

I always thought it was:

1A. Utah
1B. Boston


F. Miami

I'm sure that he was legit interested in Miami, particularly because of his Wife. I just don't see him choosing it considering the current state of affairs of that franchise. Nothing to offer there. But who knows. If they had a better team, then maybe, but I just don't see it even at his wife's insistence.

Basketball careers are relatively short, it's not a life long decision. They can go to live in Miami later.

Most people on here considered Fultz and Hayward Celtics since the all-star break. People shouldn't treat opinions as forgone conclusions.

NBA source on #Celtics-Hayward meeting: "Felt like the communication was excellent and the case was made for Gordon being a great fit.”

That's good!

And Hayward's wife posted a pic of her and Hayward having a good time, just a few hours ago, and I'm assuming it's right after the Boston meeting. She never did after Miami meeting.

That can't be a coincidence. Right? RIGHT?!?!
