There goes one of the 2024 free agents
Yeah that FA class that everyone keeps talking about if harden walks is looking real cash money
A very good player who is absolutely positively not worth that contract
Wonder if they added a clause that requires him to learn to dribble with his left hand
The Celtics didn’t have a choice and this is just the way the contracts are going, but good lord that’s a lot of money for a guy that struggles to dribble and can disappear for large stretches of games.
Imma keep using these streams to watch next season. Because clearly, the NBA doesn’t need my money. Is ANYONE actually worth 60 mil a season!? Gawd damn. Yet how somehow that’s not even the most ridiculous offer in sports this week…
it’s 35% of the salary cap. Combined with Tatum’s big deal that only has 2 more years before he can opt out for his 35%….Celtics are looking at cap hell
FTC
Brown + Tatum is going to strangle their roster building IF their owners don’t want to pay the double apron tax penalties. Finally a piece of positive news for 76ers fans this summer.
Even though we had no chance at him that free agency we using this gap year for is atrocious. Might as well gave harden the max
it’s non-guaranteed if he doesn’t learn how to dribble this summer
This doesn’t seem like smart business for Boston.
That’s fucking absurd lmao
Celtics won’t be able to sign anyone else lmao
Well, there goes the best FA from next year’s class.
Best news possible for Sixers fans
Lmao. Maxey finna abuse that clown for years to come. Celtics overpaying shitty players
Good news.
That’s a lot of bread
Him and Tatum are gonna torture us for years to come.
Holy overpay Batman
