Name a player you want the Celtics to sign!
Me
That's a pile of good players. Can the Celts actually afford one of these? Bruce Brown would be my choice.
Do a sign and trade, Grant williams for nets Dorian Finney smith
Yuta or Kelly oubre would be nice for the Celtics
Bruce Brown and Josh hart I would 🎯
GV
These guys have got none of the picks or trades correct 😭
Brad Stevens need sign Bruce Brown, get Royce O'Neal or Robert Covington another trade this offseason i think Boston big chance get #18 banner 2023/24 NBA season
Washington would be a nice target if he decides to leave Charlotte. If not, Oubre. Lakers ain’t letting go of Rui
Come on dude get real. Russel Westbrook is not a target
I wouldn’t take Westbrook for free
One of my favorite all-time is Derrick Rose when he was healthy from injury nobody could stop him
Pritchard is better than GV.
Sign Josh Richardson to the TPMLE! Great fit
3 and D player bruce brown and cam johnson to celtics
Careful about paying these guys who got hot in the playoffs
Rui & C. Wood 🍀🍀🍀
Grant Williams in Taiwan 🤣😂 he thinks he's worth 10m up cap 🤣🤣
Bro Russ 🤦🏾♂️😂 stop it bye no thank you please No value in Boston jus rushing the ball is not what we need
We only have the taxpayer MLE (5 million)
Tbh my eyes have been on curry. He fits joes system and a need. We trade Prichard and Williams bring in curry. The big ??? Is Prichard maybe ready to be that PG and the team seems really hesitant to let him for for what he makes. If we bring in a curry he needs to be attached to the sign and trade for Williams. Otherwise can brad task russ into coming for a vet minimum to win a ring? I think its possible. Have paul call for us or garnett someone he can respect. Id love to see russ come as the starting PG. We can really make sure he doesn't take to much load he would be able to find our bigs in spots they never have had before.
Nikola Vucevic nothing else needs to be said
Starting lineup
Point guard White
Shooting guard Brown
Small forward Tatum
Power forward, Porziņģis
Center Nikola Vukcevic
Horford
Williams
Brogdon
If we can get both bruce brown and hachi, id say thats an S tier off season. Gabe vincent is fine as well
Cam Reddish, PJ Washington or TJ Warren. Roll with Pritchard playing a bigger role to start the season
Rui need to reb. More for my liking id go after Wood to come in as the Grant replacement solid SF/PF or Brooks a knuckle head in his situation but here he's a Bench player behind brown and taytum that SHOULD humble him in a lesser role and on a more veteran respectful team his defensive grit is rite there with boston culture just keep that trap shut and hes a great role player for a smart defensive replacement low ball him since his stock has dropped drastically give him a 1- 2 yr prove yourself not to be a knuckle head type of deal i still like D.Rose since his rookie year lol would be nice to see him in green also 👌
Did he just say I don’t think Grant Williams would work but Christian wood would under the MLE? I just need some clarification on hoping he met saying that because Christian wood is cheaper and only that not because he’s a better fit then grant Williams for this team because if he meant that as well then there are more crazy Celtics fans then I thought. Ima Celtics fan but damn I rather overpay for grant then sign Christian wood on this team any day.
We don’t need to spend that money on Rui if we can get Grant back.. it’s either get grant back then go for Bruce brown or if you can get Bruce brown asap and if you can’t get Bruce brown or grant then Gabe Vincent is alright. That’s the only choice
no Westbrick please
Fine. I'll do it myself:
TOP 5 FAs BOSTON COULD ACTUALLY AFFORD AND WOULD FIT MAZZULA BALL:
1. damion lee- previous contract was 2M. 70th percentile wing defender with 45% 3pt shooting.
2. thomas bryant- 44% 3pt% stretch big. previous contract was 2M. 91st percentile rebounder.
3. jamychal green-38% 3pT% stretch big. previous contract was 2M. 76th percentile rebounder.
4. javonte green- 37% 3pt shooting. 84th percentile wing defender. tatum's friend. previous contract was 1M.
5. blake griffin- 35% 3pt% stretch big. bus 1 boys founding member. 81st percentile defender. previous contract was 2M.
FYI Will, we can only afford the TPMLE of 5M.
