I think Ainge needs to go ahead and make that move. I believe he fits into the criteria...under $8M, FA next year. He would give us a defensive presence at the rim and would take some pressure off Horford. He's long and doesn't need many shots. You could play more combo's...Theis\McGee would be a good combo when we have scorers on the floor.

He's at $1M and the Warriors save on lux tax. Two 2nd rounders might get it done since they may not want to take on salary.

there is a reason he is paid what he is and gets the small number of minutes he does.

this season he gets 8 minutes a game on average. assuming he would get similar time with the celtics, i dont see what he adds that helps this team improve substantially.

i would rather the celtics get a scorer who can shoot. that is what the second team needs most of all right now.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Plane for China is waiting for him. Money does not buy basketball IQ. I wouldn't take him for free and he would never see playing time with our cerebral coach.

According to Kerr, Durant and Curry, and his mom-
that's not true!

He's not playing due to the depth the Warriors have and their tendency to go small.
But they want him there.

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
I am waiting on the suns to buy out a center. Tyson Chandler would be awesome. Javale McGee is a min contract at best.

McGee has been replaced by Bell, whom we should have drafted.

Semi is a good pick but Bell was the one.
