Horford with his demeanor  that can express what he found here in Boston and isaiah elevated to legendary status in two years .Horford with his all around game and a passing big in need of another target .The chemistry and direction and the reception/results these two got as well as Danny , Brad and Wyck -all very smart,gifted individuals----and then the banners ,the legends that are made here-Miami sports are not a passion but just part of lifestyle
You want a legacy  come get banner 18,  there is youth and draft picks ,no toiling in the obscurity of Utah-
Cleveland is self destructing-you can be here with multiple opportunities to knock off the Warriors while still in prime

Not sure it's a brilliant move, it was the logical move... already a given.

Couldn't bring Kelly this year (likely gone as FA) and with Crowder, Bradley, and Smart's name being floated around in trade rumors that might have been awkward.

Isaiah sends message that he is sticking around after next season and they both say how much his game will fit into the team offense and defense.

By the way what do the scouting reportsssy about Hayward's defense?

Agreed.  The posse that came along for the Durant meeting was over the top, IMO. Hayward is not a Brady fan either. 

Only bring the people that matter and focus the discussion on what really counts from a basketball perspective.  Hayward is no dummy.

InvitingIT and horford might also be an indicator of who is in danger of exiting the team. IT and horford are the team foundation going forward. They meet Hayward.

Olly was there for Durant. Now? Not invited. Why invite someone you think won't be there in the fall? Smart? Bradley? They may not be there either.

Brown and Tatum will probably be there in the fall, but they don't represent the team well due to their youth in my thinking.

Yeah, it's a smart move having a guy in Horford who had played all his career in one city to explain the difference between the cities, and how great it was to come over.

A brilliant move would be getting KG in on the meeting and every time DA or Stevens said "we plan on doing ...." KG yells "It is POOOOSSSSIBLEEEEE!!!!!!!"

Not really anything out of the ordinary though. As a matter of fact, I would've been surprised if IT and Horford weren't in the meeting.

I think that PP34 should have been included in the meeting so he could talk about himself and being a lifetime Laker fan and then being drafted by the Celts and how he LOVES the city and it's fans and how if you play right you will be loved by the fans forever.

I don't think the Miami thing is that big of a draw, could be, but most likely not since it's rumored they stay in INDY for the summer. He can afford a summer home in Miami.

Ingles does hurt, Horford and IT need to bring their wives in on the meeting and have them take her out around the town.

But if Hayward is as basketball minded as they say, it should come down to basketball reasons. Adding Rubio and signing Ingles doesn't move the need compared to what other teams have done. Some one pointed out 12 teams in the west should be fighting for the end to middle of the playoff pack. While in the East it's the Cavs,C's,Wizards, and then who knows.

Golbert is their only really nice shinning spot for young talent right now. Exum hasn't shown is potential that was all the buzz a few years ago. Hoods decent, but most likely a role player. I think Smart/Brown/Tatum/Rozier and maybe Ojeleye are a stronger core of young guys coming off the bench, and still have a shot at a possible two top 5 next year.

I still have a feeling that he goes back to Utah with the Ingles signing, not sure if they talked and thats a sign, or Ingles just got more money with Utah. But Utah is also didn't want to spend the money on Hill because they like to keep it under the cap so they don't get taxed. Having family out there and learning how they run their city, it's not surprising they are very conservative with their money(not a bad thing,smart really) but building a championship team, they need to go over a bit and thats what separates Boston from Utah.

So if it's a Family and Friends decision- Utah

A weather decision-Miami

Basketball decision-Boston

Or the way things have been going in the last couple days-SAC

Yep, it's a standard move.
