I can’t wait to see the Celtics fans turn on Zinger tho.
Because they will.

The Show should and I believe will, but it's up to Dallas to see how much they're going to give him.

Boston getting these picks and KP and still hasn’t addressed their problem of needing more playmaking. Meh. Porzingis is a great with Horford aging and adds more scoring punch but doesn’t really change my outlook on this team too much. I’ll probably be wrong though

Sure. It’s a stupid and meaningless comparison that someone came up with to get Internet likes.

I love the KP pickup for the Celtics. And they got 2 first rounders on top of that. Great GM work by Stevens.

Na I’m with you.
Is Tatum going to be a playmaker now?
Yea right.

KP deal is cool UNLESS they give KP an extension that he's asking for in the 120-140 M's range. There's no way that is the correct move when paying tatum 7 brown what they have to pay.

Without knowing what exactly went down, I agree that Washington should have gotten one or two of the picks. I can't totally slander it but I understand why folks would at face value.
You really think Washington had more leverage with Phoenix? What else would/could they have gotten back considering Phoenix doesn't have picks. I also don't think taking Ayton over Paul was the move either because it seems his trade value is damn near zero. As for a trade with Miami, IDK if that would have worked because I think Riles is banking on Dame making something happen.
I've admittedly been making OKC comparisons but I don't think that's totally accurate. This is more Sixers Process - From the time period I posted earlier with their 5 losing seasons they only had 6 FRPs! They were lotto falling at 11 (MCW), 3 and 10 (Embiid + Elfrid Payton), 3 (Okafor), 1, (Socialite SImmo), 1 (Fultz). Hella second rounders (18!!) doe.
Obviously trading for Jimmy, Tobi, Harden, etc. have helped throughout the years but they really only hit on two lotteries and are a perennial contender now. There is hope
Meanwhile the Thunder really only bottomed out for two years but they had 6 FRPs in that span (Giddey/Sengun (traded to HOU)/Tre Mann and Chet/Jalen Williams/Peyton Watson (traded to Denver).
So OKC is a different flavor but I think they were better positioned due to the assets they unloaded.

The draft picks were something I didn’t expect tho. Well done.
Also Brad Stevens still may not be finished. Maybe he does acquire some playmakers.
But as of right now. Not sold.

Is he actually a better defender than Dillon?Marcus Smart with Jaren anchoring your defense will be so good, it will almost be laughable. Not to mention Adams being out there.
Flawed player, but he's replacing Dillon so

He has been a playmaker. He’s not going to be getting triple doubles every night, but he generates wide open looks for everyone. Teammates being able to capitalize on those opportunities is another story.

We'll definitely see. I also don't see Portland wanting to rush anything as well. I think they'll wait patiently.tay1 apparently teams are waiting in the wings so we'll see what attractive offers they get soon. If all the talk is "they need to do right by Dame" then I would imagine he goes to a contender but we'll see.
