OKC rues the day they traded or let Harden walk.

The Celtics are so weak man this sucks every team ties up and we go down 3-1 on our home floor I blame Danny and Stevens giving Hayward 30m+ was the dumbest move in Celtic history.

If your not KD, Kawhi, LeBron, Harden, Curry, or Gianiss you have no business making 30m+ a year.

ya ok

All of the series are tied 2 apiece, except the Celtics.

It's really funny when people who have no idea how the NBA salary cap works say things like this.

Ummm you misunderstood, I do know how the salary cap works.

I'm simply stating my opinion that those are the only players deserving of such money.

Everyone else is inconsistent

Lowry had a 0 point game 33 mil
Hayward 2 pts in 27 mins game 4 playoffs 30mil


At least Lowry is expiring after this run Haywards contract is like one of the worst in the league.

If the Rockets get passed the Warriors then maybe Chris Paul's contract is justified for back to back conference finals.

If there wasn't such thing as a max contract and a super-max contract then yeah, you might be right. But with the way players are empowered in contract talks then there's no way that only the top 5 players are making $30m.

Lowry doesn't expire until 2020, so no idea what you mean there. Plus he's 33.

There is absolutely no justification for Chris Paul unless they win at least one title. He's going to earn $44m in his final year, at age 36!!

John Wall is an obviously worse contract too

C'mon Toronto spank this Philly team back to training camp.

Embiid is not looking good tonight so far

[jpotter33]

If we don’t make it, would love to see a Milwaukee/Toronto ECF. Both teams are very likable (outside of being our rivals), certainly more so than GS or Houston, and I could see either team winning it all.

I guess it probably benefits us to have Milwaukee win, though, as that could get Kawhi to LAC and out of the East.

I think he low key loves Toronto, they worship him like a god there coming from San Antonio he must be loving it... Getting the SUPERSTAR treatment he deserves.

That could turn into a high key headache for us if he stays. I think there's too much smoke, considering it's not just Lakers smoke, for there not to be fire, but anything is possible.

They would be a nightmare if he stays

Man is Simmons benched? Embiid seems to have a to. Of turnovers already without looking

Simmons is already in foul trouble. Same with Harris

[celticsclay]

Simmons and embiid have 10 points 7 turnovers.

I was actually just hoping for a good game and we got this garbage
