Official 2017 NBA Offseason Thread: Media Days begin

Yes and it happened 24hrs before game 1 of the first round :\

Did they beat the Bulls? What about the Wizards?

You want props for beating an 8 seed and a 4 seed then getting smoked by a 2 seed? How do you want me to respond here?

You want me to say it affected him a month after it happened versus the Cavs? Who the hell knows. Maybe it did maybe it didnt. Who is to say he ever gets over it then?

Almost won Game 4 too

I was referring to Bulls vs Celtics

Gordon Hayward is being overvalued a bit, is he any better than any of the east all stars from last season? And did he go to a team with a distributor at point guard? All that and they're forced to gut their depth a bit just to afford him when they were already undersized as it is

I think Celtics fans are more hyped about years down the line than being realistic about next season. IT's sisters death alone ain't to blame for that big *** margin of loss against the Cavs

He's definitely being overvauled. He's a nice player but he ain't even top 20. Yesterday I thought this was a real good signing for Boston but if they just killed their chances to keep Crawder and Smart this team won't that much better than last year. They still getting smacked by Cleveland.

You originally implied that it had an effect on the Cavs vs. Boston series......

Literally only way the C's get to the ECF is if Wiz and Cavs have major injuries. Outside of that Celtics fans ain't even betting on getting to the Finals. If so, 

This is you watching what's going on in Boston

Excuse?

That's cold.

Spoken like someone who hasn't dealt with much loss in life.

Crowder is under contract for two years after this year and Smart is a RFA next year so there is a good shot the could keep him with his Bird Rights.

What have the Celtics really done to make themselves better than the Cavs?

Lebron is still better than anyone on the cavs.

At this point im taking Kyrie over IT.

The Celtics drafted another SF to play the minutes of the SF they drafted last year and signed another SF.

The celtics are still weak as hell down low.

The celtics still arent better than the Cavs.  It took a lucky *** shot to win one game last year.  Gordon Hayward isnt single handedly closing that gap.  Not to mention that Cetlics team probably would have gotten washed by the bulls had Rondo not gotten hurt.

So the tragedy of IT's sister had no affect on the team?

You could have just quoted the one sentence then, damn.  The entire ******* post was about the Cavs still beating the Celtics.

I keep seeing they might trade Crowder to shed salary.

Maybe to get another Star.  I doubt they trade him just to trade him.

I stand corrected.  Not sure why they wouldnt try to move crowder instead.  They already have 2 other SFs who can take his minutes.

I'm not buying it with the cavs. That defense was legit god awful, and they've only gotten older this offseason.

Playing LBJ that many regular season minutes shouldn't work this time around.

The cavs are vulnerable. If LBJ comes back to the field just a little bit, and isn't Supernova GOAT type, the C's definitely can get em'.

The trade market for stars has momentarily dried up. One player worth keeping an eye on, two league executives told The Vertical: Memphis’ Marc Gasol.


That's not a good fit at all. They need someone like Deandre Jordan.

 

[shotsrangout]

Y'all gotta be kidding me with it's sister. RIP but give me a break.

 

[shotsrangout]

Oh okay so Boston didn't have a 16pt lead without IT in Game 4...

Ok, so they didn't lose by 13?

Y'all sounding like Paul walker in the fast and the furious

Boston fans really feeling themselves after signing an overrated small forward

But you're a Knicks fan

I'm a cavs fan. My uncles 4th cousin was born in Cleveland

What are you going to be next year if he leaves?

The only thing I found odd about his loss, was that he chose to play through it, rather than not play.
