Ainge - Major Team Announcement at 1:30pm today....

[The One]

If it's a press conference, where can we watch it?

Livestream??

[hwangjini_1]

My guy says Paul Pierce will be signed and retired to the rafters.

that sounds rather painful for him. 

[mef730]

The writers for the Boston Globe actually work in my building.*

Based on what he's read on CB, Danny is going to announce that Abdel Nader is going to be our starting power forward.

Mike

*True. Relevant? Of course not.

[Phantom255x]

So we're re-signing Sullinger at the veteran minimum?

Wow... 

[bellerephon]

It could just be the Morris trade, AB did his presser in Detroit the other day, makes sense the Celts would do theirs soon.

[dwlefty13]

99% certain it has to be the Hayward press conference featuring Morris and Baynes.

1% for Pierce signing and retiring a Celtic.

[Surferdad]

I sure hope it's a presser for all three -- Hayward, Morris, Baynes.  Tell the league we've come to play this year.

[Yoki_IsTheName]

Would this be streamed?

Would this be accessible in California?

[fairweatherfan]

Hiring Toine as a salary cap guru is a risky move, but I like that Ainge is still taking chances.

[mef730]

Has Hayward had his introductory press conference? Imagine it's to do with that otherwise

Not quite sure it can be.  I think they officially have to wait for Mickey to clear waivers before the cap room is available, and that occurs Saturday.  But maybe the NBA will be nice because everyone knows Hayward is a Celtic?

Didn't they have an introductory for Horford way before he actually put pen to paper? Or am I imagining stuff?

I was sleeping two hours a night due to a newborn when that occurred, so I have no recollection at all, but typically you're not allowed to talk about players under contract.

I've always said that anybody who could actually remember the pain of the first child would never have a second. But they're just so darned cute.

Scott Souza, who covers the Celts for the Providence Journal tweeted this pic. Doesn't look like a set up for a major announcement.

Apparently it will only be Danny Ainge speaking today at this thing. Hayward is not even  in town. Odd.

This is a little concerning. This is more of some one is stepping down, or getting a promotion? Maybe Peirce is coming to be a coach? Or is this an announcement for an other announcement.

Weird

Hopefully it's not Ainge stepping down as GM. He does look much older and less healthy lately though

[CelticSooner]

I'm a little nervous. Why announce a presser just by yourself?


Edit: Watch live here as Danny Ainge meets the media to talk about the Celtics' signing of Gordon Hayward and other moves.

Doesn't appear anything big.
