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

[blink]

I dunno why so many people are pessimistic about this.

Boston makes the most sense for Hayward.

Doesn't mean he signs here, but we have a good shot. Otherwise he wouldn't have bothered meeting us at all. We're in a good place.

Even if he doesn't sign, we have a solid young core anyways. We can build Warriors-style with good drafting and asset management.

It's a win-win.

Because people need to get a grip around here.  Your life is more than this blog yet the first negative reaction to your team and people lose their minds and get all defensive.  Get a life!  We're not entitled to anything because we're the Celtics.  If we get him, great, if not well then we move on with a youth movement instead of adding more clogs that slow the progression of our team and it's future.

Who pooped in your cheerios?

It's one thing to be realistic, it's an other to take something and turn it into false new just to get a rise out of people you have an issue with.

I mean I'll be bumbed if we don't get him, have a feeling we wont, but I'm not going around being a troll about it.

Yes life will go on, and we have some young guys to be excited about, but Hayward may be the last shot we have at an FA that makes a difference for a while. People have a right to be a little excited and hopeful about it.

lol I'm not spreading fake news.  I'm reporting what I've heard.  Just like any other rumor.  You guys choose your reactions

But where have you 'heard' this?  Seriously.

Rubio is fine but if that's who Hayward gets jacked up to play with, he deserves Utah.

Who would you rather play with a passing pg or a shoot first defensive liability pg?

Probably a downgrade from Hill. He's not that good.

Did Rubio get a defensive player vote this season?

Rubio's a huge liability on defense as well.

But he's actually pretty good defensively.

Is that the best description of each? Or does that fit your MO?

I could easily describe the latter as an All-NBA 29ppg scorer who led his team to the top seed and Conference Finals.

I'd rather play with that guy.

Waiters going to the Knicks
