(UNVERIFIABLE) Elvis74 on Twitter: “I mentioned So Derrick White is our PG, with a smirk he said for now! I looked at him & said for now? He smirked again & left. Not trying to start any rumors but I took it as something is coming.”



Joe was at UFC this past weekend as well as appearing at NBA Con. Linked in the tweet is a picture of Joe shaking some hands so it is very possible that this brief conversation occurred. Obviously we can’t just take a random twitter user’s claims of a conversation as gospel, but considering the picture attached, again, it is possible it happened.

    …but even if this conversation did happen it could be Joe trying to fuck with fans. We all know about his extremely dry and matter of fact sense of “humor”.

    Not to mention I imagine Brad would not like anyone tipping his hand even in a joking manner. I wouldn’t think that’d be a smart business move, conversation with a random fan or otherwise.

    This could also mean Brogdon is starting at Point.

    But if Dame Time becomes a Celtic this would be a hilarious Tweet to come back to.

    I know most of us, myself included, have assumed it’s going to be double big with Porzingis and Rob/Al. But I guess they could go the other way and go Brogdon and White starting.

    Hmm seems like they are gunning for another guard. I maybe wrong

    My top 4 explanations for this, in order of likelihood:

    1. bullshit (95%)

    2. he was fucking with this person (4%)

    3. he doesn’t know who the starting PG with the FO making all these crazy moves and he’s even a little frustrated about that (1%)

    4. he is hinting to this person about another trade (0%)

    I’m just changing this to the `Rumor` flag, don’t mind me.

    Dwhite will eventually be traded or retire a Celtic so Joe is right. I see things similar to Joe. This subs sees things similar to whoever this dumbass is

    The something could easily be John Wall which isn’t exactly something worth getting excited about at this stage in his career.

    Until SAS is capped out, I’m buying this rumor.

    SAS has a clear need for a veteran PG. The Celtics, per Brian Robb, have had talks with SAS about Brogdon. But SAS doesn’t want Malcolm Brogdon from the Celtics.

    Brad and RC Buford probably have a daily scheduled call in which RC asks if Brad is ready to talk about DWhite and Brad asks if RC wants Brogdon. They both say not today and promise to talk tomorrow.

    John Wall come on down!

    His FT% and 3pt% is gross for a pointguard but 5 assists per game is pretty solid.
