Also just laughing at how bad the Celtics have botched this treasure trove they stole from Brooklyn. You ended up with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown from the #1 and #3 overall picks in consecutive years. That's a fucking disaster. Another Woj Bomb: An imminent trade: Paul George heading to Boston! So may be not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that less, but still not high on it. Especially if he goes to the Lakers like everyone thinks he will. They must have heard no from Hayward.

They didn't get anything for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briantw Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Smart move by the Wolves, though. They traded a couple of mediocre players and an uncertain mid-lottery pick for one of the twenty best players in the NBA and a guy who is already used to playing for their coach. I like that deal a lot less for the Bulls, though. At least it means Wade will probably be seeing a buy-out, though, because that team is going nowhere.

sperry Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Seems like these sharpshooters fall in the draft every year, and turn out to be among the most valuable players in the draft. Monk to Charlotte is a great pick at 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime L Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 T'Wolves and 76ers just became the must watch teams next season each now with 3 freakish young stars. I remain really curious how this all works out for the Celtics. It's really fucking bold to pass up their chance to get either Fultz or Ball, the guys who were the consensus top two all season. I get they double-downed on Isaiah Thomas but you don't pass on elite talent out of positional concerns. They must really believe Tatum could be better than both. They better be right. Also Paul George is a really nice piece, but if they get him, are they sure they can re-sign him? Felt like everything lined up for them to become an elite contender for the next decade but the path is getting riskier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
