Making Marcus a restricted free agent was a risky deal.
Does anybody think Wyck will match offers?
Does it really matter, why not let the market set the price then pay Marcus and the team could at least trade him rather than lose him for nothing.
Mark Cuban just said that the new gambling ruling makes clubs more valuable
So does winning a title
The idea of trading Kyrie because of Roziers improvement-Kyrie is imminently better than Rozier and Kyrie was a prodigy from the time he entered the league
These are the caliber that the team needs to win it all. Kyrie is relatively young and cleaning out his knee should free him from the pain that he played through .Rozier should use his time being tutored by the best
Kyrie claimed he just scratched the surface and i believe him when it comes to basketball.
And i have experience with a balky knee but it is not structurally sound .So if Kyrie was having pain soreness it may have inhibited freedom of motion and movement .And taken some of the FUN away.

All depends on what smart is offered.  If it's reasonable, then I think he matches.  If it isn't, then bye Marcus. 

I think ownership will pay for a winner but that does not mean giving dumb contracts.

Smart should be kept on but there might be other financial considerations. If we get the 2nd pick tonight or if we want sign a free agent in the off season, Tyreke Evans comes to mind. Money for Rozier and then down the road for Brown and Tatum. There are a lot of moving parts financially for these Celtics. Having some middle sized contracts, in the 10-15 million area, could be key to a trade for another star. I'm sure Danny is keeping all these things and much more straight.

What about the sign and trade scenario during the season-it just seems criminal to have to let go these groomed projects that are rarities.
Did you see that clip of Marcus defending Hill one on one -it was beautiful.

Doing a sign and trade for Smart is an option but if we can't afford Smart at whatever he ends up signing for, how are we going to be able to afford what we have to take back in salary?  Why not just pay Marcus if that is the case?

I just don't see an offer significantly bigger than the non-tax MLE sitting out there for Smart. There are only a couple of teams with real cap space in a rich free agent market and Smart has to br used correctly or he can wind up hurting you. I'm like 90% confident Smart either comes back on a cheap one-year QO or signs a new contract of 3/4 years at a little above the mid-level (which would still have him making $10ish million a year, so don't feel too bad for him).

With sports gambling being legalized the value of all sports franchises is gonna double so Wyc had better be okay with steep luxury tax payments.

Jackie MacMullen on a recent podcast was saying that the $$ put up to buy Celtics is Wyc's father's, not his.  He just lets Wyc make all the decisions.  Don't know what that means as far as luxury tax issues that are bound to come up the next few years.

The Bulls can pay him what ever they want but a backcourt of Dunn and Smart might be very challenged offensively.

Well, Wyc is the governor/lead owner recognized by the league, so no one "lets him" make the decisions.

He has said this before too.

Wyc's group bought the Cs for $360 million in 2002. They're worth $2.5 billion now according to Forbes in February. Presumably, Wyc's dad is very happy with that.

Sorry for sounding clueless, but is luxury tax ONLY payed for by owner? Or is it also payed by the entire front office (each pays a share)? I imagine profits/revenues also play a part too.

The tax is paid by whoever cuts the checks.
