League source: Celtics believe Horford may already have a good idea of where he's headed, after such a dramatic step back from negotiations.

So they basically know he was tampered with.

Serious question..... Is it tampering if the player initiates the contact.

Yeah I wonder if Clippers or someone else came over the top and the C's weren't willing to match. Or if it is a contender not willing to overpay above that.

I 100% believe we tampered with Gordon, so this is really an offseason of karma for us.

I'm so bummed. What a disaster this offseason's been and it hasn't even officially started yet.

Serious question..... Is it tampering if the player initiates the contact.

No players are allowed to reach out and recruit

this is a different question, Is a player that is under contract with one team allowed to reach out to another team?

Maybe we draft the next Clyde Drexler, Zydrunas and Reggie Lewis (RIP) with our picks. Those are the best number 14, 20 and 22 picks I can think of

Yes Spencer Dinwiddie recruited Kyrie to BKN, for example.

Hate to see you leave big fella - but he deserves a ring. He should go to a contender. No idea who would have enough cap space. I feel like he would do well on the Blazers for some reason.
