Boston’s future

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Tatum wasn’t looked at as some sure fire superstar. The Lakers were dumb as fuck to take Ball. I thought Fultz did look like the top prospect.

If Boston was smart, they’d trade Brown, Tatum, Rozier for either Kawhi or AD. A core of AD/Kawhi, Ky, and Hayward could be pretty devasting. With all the guys on the team that are capable to score, there won’t be enough shots for anyone. I hope they keep their team the way it is and lose Smart and Baynes this summer.

No way they would have to give up all of that for either of those guys. Holy shit. Don't they have the Sacramento pick next year? One of those guys (Brown or Tatum I mean) plus that pick, which is solid gold, would be enough. Throw in Rozier if need be.
 
I would never ever trade with Boston if I waa any team.

Who the hell knows if tatum and brown don't go Jae crowder or Isaiah Thomas?
 
I have to believe Tatum is untouchable. I bet he is a top 15/20 player going into next year on the second year of a rockie contract. Outside of maybe AD not sure there is anyone else you would move him for. I would have Haywood on the block before Tatum just bevause of the contract.
 
Danny Ainge is probably going to backstab someone like Hayward or Kyrie and trade them next season somewhere for someone like AD. Cause to Danny, they are all just pawns in his eyes.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ainge traded Kyrie between now and the deadline. Kyrie wanted a trade to get out of the shadow of LeBron. In Boston the spotlight won't be on him, it's going to be on Tatum and maybe Brown if he keeps developing like he has. With only one year left on his deal and Ainge knowing Kyrie wants to be the guy, I have a feeling they won't want to let this go to free agency.

Kyrie talked about all the things he wants to achieve in his career, if it was just about winning he would have stayed with the Cavs. I just can't see him getting the touches now to be in play for MVP or whatever else he wants to achieve.
 
Boston Carr reporting that Kyrie had surgery on a deviated septum yesterday and didn't want to be seen afterward. That's why he wasn't there.

Good. Fuck that asshole.

It would also make watching Bostons inevitable dynasty tolerable
 
Irving is damaged goods: staph in knee after multiple surgeries. Those lamenting the Cavs' trade results should keep this mind.

Ainge is too shrewd not to move him for another established star instead of agreeing to a massive extension next year.
 
I think people are seriously overrating Boston’s offensive abilities. They shit the bed on offense a number of times this series.

Not sure about top 15. Top 30 maybe.

Bron, KD, Harden, Russ, Steph (5)
Kawhi, Kyrie, Klay, Dray, AD (10)
CP3, Dame, Giannis, KAT, Butler (15)
Dipo, PG13, Porzingas, Embiid, Simmons (20)

I'll give you top 30 depending on how you rate guys like Boogie, Wall, Beal, CJ, Blake, Mitchell, Hayward, etc etc. Tatum in the 25-35 range seems about right. Great future that's for sure.

That’s so weird. That type of surgery is elective. Surely it could’ve waited until the Celtics season was over.
