D wade (has said he only wants to play for heat)
Rodney Hood (wants $9 mill from Cavs, offered 6-7)
Nick Young
Corey Brewer
Ramon sessions
Jarrett jack




I’m actually surprised nick young hasn’t signed anywhere. He isn’t an amazing player but having him as a 3rd string spark off the bench in case everyone else is cold can’t be the worst thing in the world right ?

6’7
He Shot 41% from field, 37% from 3 in 17 minutes per game.


The problem is he might be seeking a bigger role than 13-15th man... but no one has signed him so he might have to just put up with warming the bench for us

 Haven't we already signed 17 guys?  Bird just made the decision easier.

Only 15 are under NBA contract and on the roster.

Well, plus the two 2-way players they signed, so they do have 17 players under contract.

Cory Brewer would be an awesome addition to our second unit.
Rozier, Smart, Brewer, Morris, Baynes/Theis. Pure misery to play against.

Bird had a very nice summer league, if the Celtics cut him loose, I wouldn't be surprised if he signed with another NBA team.

Plus we’d be reuniting Al and Brewer! I’d be perfectly okay with picking him up

Who is the best pure 3 point shooter available? That would seem to be the one "need" for the bench.

Eh, given the reason he’d be cut, no team is touching him.

I see the Celtics trading his contract away to free up cap space. Send money to cover the salary and a 2nd rounder and dump him. Then do the same with Yabusele at the trade deadline. The Cs should then be under the luxury tax. If they need bodies in slots 14 and 15 after the deadline, use the 2-way players.

Sign Nick Young? Goodness no. Pure chucker, and he does nothing else.
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.

That's the fun part.  Did you not enjoy Gerald Green's takeover games that much more because he is so inconsistent and unpredictable? 

Edit: his hair, mannerisms, etc? Swaggy P offers all the same x2.
