OT: 2016-2017 Boston Celtics/NBA Thread

[JRull86]

Read a rumor of the C's being the third team involved in a 3-team deal that sends Melo to the Clippers.

JJ Redick, Paul Pierce, L. Mbah a Moute to Celtics
Amir Johnson, Austin Rivers, Jonas Jerebko to Knicks
Carmelo to Clippers

Not sure how that makes the team any better. if anything it's par for the course.

Another rumor had Courtney Lee coming back from the Knicks with Avery bradley going to the Knicks.

A fake contender would make a big trade to fill a short-term need. This team isn't a fake contender. Just not a contender. Never pretended to be.

Can't think of a single reason why I'd make that trade.

Also, we're not even really getting beaten on the boards. Just missing more shots.

I stand by they need a rebounder added.But big comeback.They need a win vs this team to prove they are legit .To themselves to not just us. Thomas is deadly.Some comback down 17

 

[22Brad Park]

Big rebound missed there on Lowry miss

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

109-104 F NO Derozan, Bradley, Olynik, or Rozier who was ejected off a Smart dunk;

#3252, as the C's pass the Lakers for career franchise wins

Big win.But man I wish Ainge would add some help for them.

Nets blew a 10-pt 4th quarter lead to lose by 5 to NY.

Good news for Celt s..250 combos out of 1000 I believe is odds of best chance at 1st pick.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

Los Angeles coming to spend the weekend

Lakers tonight, the Clippers Sunday, and the last Boston appearance for Paul Pierce.

 

[EverettMike]

Danny Ainge is the best GM in basketball.

Those Brooklyn picks are so sexy there should be an M rating attached to the NBA standings.

.Hearing that 1st pick from Nets they have option to switch and or next years unprotected first are in play.Bulls sniffing around with Butler maybe the piece.See today Varejo was waived.He be an interesting pickup too.Add size under hoop.I fully expect Celtics are going to make a deal.

Paul Pierce is such a great guy !!

 

[Alicat]

I'm not ready to say goodbye to Paul.

18 years after he made his debut with the Celtics, he makes his final start against them.

Can't wait to see his number up in the rafters next to Bird, Parish and McHale.

Man, Jaylen Brown looks pretty solid filling in for Avery Bradley. I've been pretty satisfied with the pick.

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

NOW COMES the real test 4 out West beginning in Sacramento Wednesday, but who after last night, is paying attention

Hey, I still am. I don't know if the Sacramento game is a big test, but definitely at Utah.
