Why? Jaylen is legit.

Seems unlikely Celts would max Kawhi, Kyrie while already paying Hayward/Horford and then having to pay Smart, Rozier in the next few years.

I'd like to see Celts get Kawhi but I wouldn't want to gut the team for him.

Jaylen isn't going to be more than a 6th man type, sell while they can

Yeah if they get kawhi lol at them keeping scrub ass smart and rozier, I’d dump those two guys in a second. They have extremely valuable high picks that can fill those voids. Both smart and rozier don’t want **** money.

I'd rather keep 1 of them+Brown+Kyrie than lose all of them and get Kawhi+something else if it shakes out like that though.

If they're willing to spend that much on the team then make it happen I guess, but just seems unlikely they will roll out like a 145-150mill payroll for 4-5 years.

I think if Celts deal Kawhi then likely 1 of Hayward/Kyrie goes out.

if you can resign kyrie and kawhi a core of

Kyrie
Tatum
Kawhi

Al might opt out after next year, Hayward has a few left to bridge

fill in the rest on your own time

Why would they keep Smart for 10+mill a year when they can draft Grayson Allen at #27 and pay him $1.2mill for being a solid defender, solid ball handler & good shooter. Allen probably does better than Smart at his current role for 1/10th the price, paying smart 8 figures is a mistake for the Celtics.

Because Grayson Allen isn't good and comparing his defense to Smart is absurd

Wonder if Phily or Boston would make moves without a commitment from Kawhi?

Cov/Fultz/10 or Hayward or Kyrie and kings pick is a lot to give up for a guy that might not re-sign.

Jaylen Brown is already better than a 6th man. He would start on at least 1/2 the teams in the NBA right now: Orl, Atl, Dallas, BKN, NYK, Por, Mia, Mem, NO, IND, TOR, CLE, SAC, LAC, LAL, DET, CHI etc

I am massively down on Fultz but would LOL at that. The 76ers have Covington locked up for 4 years, Fultz 7 years and #10 for 8 years.

Kawhi is locked up for 1 more year and will make 2x what those guys will make conbined at the start of the 19-20 season.

That would be disastrous for the 76ers even if it went perfectly

The 76ers would do Fultz+10th pick+ 26th pick+ TLC+Korkmaz+Bayless for Kawhi and Aldridge

How does Julius Randle factor into all of this in a Lakers/SA deal?

He can't just re-sign for like 3/70 and be put in the deal, right?

If he could then I could see like Randle/Ingram for Kawhi/D Green then use Kuzma/picks to get rid of Deng's deal.

Wiggins + Tyus for Kiwi imo

Butler + Gorgui for Kiwi + Pau + picks then we fire Thibs. Jimmy is from Texas and would be way the best player they could get.

I don't understand how the Celts could even deal Jaylen for Kawhi without giving up 1 of their higher priced players.

I guess throw in Yaba/Morris/Nader/Theis and it works cap wise.

Yesterday Cleveland Native Earl Boykins said there was a "30-40%" chance that Bron goes to Denver on a radio show. Today he came back and doubled-down on that.... Also said there is no chance he goes to New York.

We certainly can debate what Smart is worth, but assuming Smart is expendable because the Celtics might draft Grayson Allen is ridiculous.

I guess i'm the only one high on Grayson Allen being a good 20-25min a game 3rd guard on a winning team. Don't see how he fails at that role, i see him being too athletic, too big of a dog & a pretty good shooter to fail in the nba but okay.

easy, just type "lebron, Denver"

He's obviously enjoying the legal weed now, but I wouldn't be shocked if they get a meeting.

Not true, PHI can go Fultz + 10 for Kawh, and I believe, give the SAS a trade exception for his full salary

They punt Bayless contract and can max lebron anyway he chooses

Simmons, Kawhi, Lebron, Roco, Saric, Embiid top 6, gg league
