And to top it off they've been doing it without the guys they even got from those deals soooo...
 
Also, Snoop can kick rocks. You guys shouldn’t even let him hop back on the wagon.

If anything that's reverse bandwagon hopping though :lol:
 
'They're only improving because of D'lo and oak'...5-6 since D'lo been out. Oak aint even got fitted for a jersey yet
 
Goalposts aren't moving anywhere. Marks (and Atkinson) have done a fantastic job by taking advantage of situations that shouldn't seemingly exist.

And no, every other team did not have as much opportunity if not moreso to make the DLo trade. Okafor, sure.

And that's just life. Playing politics and getting positions where other people are more deserving is just the way things are done in many places so situations like this will always exist. Sean has done a great job capitalizing on it. It take a certain level of creativity and business acumen to get deals like this done.

What he does well is that on paper, it always seems like a win win situation for everybody unlike Hinkie, who's done great moves, but his moves are almost always Win/ Lose where GMs will not want to deal with him in the future. That's kind of how we missed out on Porzingis...but at the same time, used our MCW chip to land Fultz.

Not sure what he means by this either. BKN picks led to a 25 year old MVP candidate and 2 of the brightest young wings in the league.

What else is new though.

I was told they had nothing but worthless assets, and Danny Ainge was clueless. They currently have the best record in the league, and only 2 guys on the roster are over 28 years old.
 
They had Lonzo above him tho :lol:
wrong on lonzo, right on melo. No list is perfect.

Snoop been had like 6 teams and he a Pittsburgh steelers fan.
F the process still tho.

I don't know tho that different jersey wearing ish don't mean much . You can catch me wearing a tmac Jersey ,a bd on the hornets Jersey or even chargers Lt Jersey today or back in my time. Doesn't mean I'm a fan of those teams or root for them.

I mean the Celtics did get lucky with Kyrie asking to be traded. Celtics fans wanted PG and they failed on that. They made some good moves though.

No, the Celtics were lucky that the Cavs were dumb enough to trade Kyrie to the second-best team in their own conference. A team they just played in the conference finals. Why not just trade him to the west and not have to worry about him?
