KD would be exceptional in green. Especially with a coach like B-Stevens. He salvaged Turner from off the scrap heap & gave him options going forward. (Brad) would get the most out of KD's game & surround him with lineups of roleplayers & glue guys who play way above their talent level as a team greater than the sum of its parts. If he doesn't stay in OKC that's the only spot I (too) want him to land.
But the Celtics never get free agents. There needs to be a rapid magnetic pole shift to change around the world's climates for that to happen...and if it does then the coasts have far more to worry about than hoops.

As much as I would do backflips, there's fucking zero chance KD goes to Boston. NBA players don't care about fit, coaching, or anything else. They want sun and nightlife, ie they're dumb.

That being said, fuck Danny Ainge in his stupid smarmy ass. He should have taken that fucking Philly deal, and I'll never forgive him for hanging onto these worthless picks. Holding out for a better deal is stupid when you have no leverage and everyone knows you don't want the pick. It was the 3rd pick in a 2 man draft and we had no play other than take what we could get. Instead he sat on his stupid thumb and took a worthless player that will be yet another undersized forward who can't shoot. Not like we haven't had enough of those guys in Boston the last 7 or 8 years.

I may take the under on that one.

Noah and Rose and Melo don't have one good set of legs between em all
Gordon got into 65 games last year so he is the Ironman of that crew

I predicted during the middle of the playoffs that LA would max DeRozan and Biyombo as their BIG FREE AGENT SPLASH

and I was wrong but it's SO MUCH WORSE and it's hilarious

Lakers, Rockets, Bulls, Blazers. MAVS TOO :whoa: W T F is going on?
Knicks gonna Knick...but even they've made better moves than the aforementioned teams.
Something nobody could've predicted: The Kings actually having a better offseason than those teams.
I like Orlando better today than I did last week on draft night. And even though it doesn't do anything for shooting needs I actually like the Celtics taking Jaylen Brown at #3. I think he may have the highest ceiling/potential of anyone in the top 5. I suspect Brad Stevens & Celtic culture will get the most out of developing him.
The Suns may be winning right now, overall. Offseason on paper, anyway. But based on front office moves in recent years, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. My question is which guard do they move away from first, Bledsoe or Knight? Both are highly talented but do you really want either one running your offense?

First time we've had cap space to sign a free agent. Not that shocking if you ignore the hyperbole.

Also goddamn it KD to the Dubs.

KD seriously just trolled tf out of the NBA...but prob no one more than Lil B :eek:
I'm on Lil B's side here.

What a whack move though, least fav.
Warriors are going to be a great league pass team even more so but man that ruins the west.
So where does Russ get traded?
Dude imagine if it's to the Cs.
I might splode
