    Oh boy
     
  3. I mean, we can talk about Ainge being dumb for spooking those young guys when there's evidence they're spooked. I haven't seen any, definitely not of the sort we've seen from LA
     
  4. Haha, ok, but it's not like this very NBA thread of Boston fans weren't pretty much on that same bandwagon! Heh ...

    I just can't believe it went from "holy shit this guy" to "oh look over there" ...

    <insert guy looking at girl passing meme here>

    I can't stand to see Lillard in any trade rumors. He's my guy! I'm terrified he'll leave. It's irrational, but true. And the Celtics are basically packing Tatum's bags for AD -- a guy that doesn't really wanna be there, has injury issues, and I dunno. It's just a little shocking.
     
  5. My post about Daniel Theis being Dirk was clearly very serious

  8. Always was gonna happen after Paul's death. I think the contract says they'll be here until 2023 no matter what. I'd expect any sell to include new language to keep them here too. Or, we riot.
     
  9. Don’t. It’s a better idea to go on Reddit and sort by new to read shitty hot takes on Basketball

  10. I don't feel like I'm packing Tatum's bags, I love him, and the idea of losing Smart makes me sadder than almost any other sports thing I can think of. I'm just trying to be realistic about what it takes to get a player like AD and how good AD is
     
  11. What's the LA evidence? They sucked before the trade talks ... and they sucked the game after.
     
  12. Just think if Ainge didn't back up the truck of money for Hayward ... you could have him without giving up Tatum and Smart.

    Ainge is soooo good imagine murdering the Nets the way they did and ending up having half a Gordon Hayward, Marcus Smart and Terry Rozier to show for it in two years after Kyrie leaves and AD refuses to re-sign
     
  14. Could we? Presumably we still wanna be paying Kyrie and Al, and isn't JB RFA the same year AD is UFA? idk if the cap works here

    That Thrice thread was very bad btw. I went. I knew I shouldn't have, but i did.
     
  16. You're right, this is the current situation that Ainge should be judged on

    It’s a pre-judge I’m gonna hold onto tightly until he pulls it off and then I just have to be a hater

  21. Ainge is unfortunately (and fortunately for Boston fans) Ainge.

    I don’t know if I buy the whole AD doesn’t wanna re-sign there if he gets traded thing. I don’t even know if AD knows what he wants right now. It seems like the dude just doesn’t want to sit out all year and not play.

    Things will make more sense when everyone knows what Kyrie is doing.

    But the Bill Simmons tweets along the way is what’s really worth it.
     
  22. You guys made me late leaving work smh
