Nah Gordon the White Alan Houston don't disrespect PG like dat

OFF SEASON IS TOO LIT

David Aldridge @daldridgetnt

Okay. Strap in. Told by a source w/knowledge of the process that Gordon Hayward has NOT made a decision yet & is still in the process. FWIW


Kd to Celtics all over again

 

[casper90403]

George and Gordon are nothing alike.

i don't think its meant to make sense. Some things are best left alone. I didn't even bother to ask about the comparisons.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Bingo

But hindsight

Nah he's worth it
Been hitting the gym

Giving a 5'9" shoot first PG who doesn't defend 20+ mil is worth it ?

He averaged 29 on the second best team in the conference. Look at the money Kyle Lowry got.

Zeke being 5'9" is wildly overblown

Cause Toronto is in the same position going forward as Boston ?

They had to give Lowry the bag, they also gave Ibaka a big too to remain relevant

Don't think Boston has that problem
Could've had Fultz on a team friendly deal and forgotten IT by the end of the year

You don't let your best player walk after you've had your best season in 6 years.

It would have been a tougher sell for Boston to get WPG to play alongside an unproven rookie and al horford.

Imagine if he didn't sign with Boston with everyone jumping the gun...PRICELESS.

Please please please please please please please please

Boston got enough for the Cavs now?

 

[gaseousfashion]

Would Boston pull the trigger on a deal for Melo if they end up with Hayward?

 

[B Sox]

Isaiah going to end up getting the same kind of deal as Lowry next summer. I don't have any problem with it. He's one of the best scorers in the league.

 

[gaiiige]

Boston got enough for the Cavs now?

nope 

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Would Boston pull the trigger on a deal for Melo if they end up with Hayward?

I'm sure they wouldn't mind. Depends on if Anthony accepts to play there which he wouldn't most likely

 

[B Sox]

Would Boston pull the trigger on a deal for Melo if they end up with Hayward?

No. They would have to match salary and can't do it.

Melo only wants Rockets or Cavs, to go to the finals for the first time in his life, so better chose Cavs.

Goddamn how many wings you need

Hayward's agent Mark Bartelstein on whether final word is coming today: "That was the goal, but now we've got to kind of regroup here a bit"

They need all the wings . They need to consolidate their assets into a star already.

Gordon pls

Man chill out this shouldn't have any bearing on the decision making process

Melo aint no damn star 

 still a great player though in the right situation 

 

[Moheezy]

Their SF spot = Hayward, Tatum, Brown, and Crowder :x

they need to make a move to get a big back. This team is too small to make any real damage in the playoff (which only starts in the conference finals)

Positions 2-4 are all interchangeable. Plenty of minutes for everybody.

I'd say 3-4 are interchangeable, can't really see any of the SFs effectively play the 2 plus they don't need to. I still think rebounding and rim protection will be their kryptonite. Don't forget that Horford is not a good rebounder nor is he a threat with rim protection.

White Gordon can't play the 2? Zizic will hopefully provide the interior presence that Horford cannot
