Celtics/NBA Jeff Bezos reportedly has no interest in buying the Celtics

[EverettMike]

FSG will absolutely destroy the Celtics. Every time they buy another team they care less and less about any of them winning a title. When they only owned the Sox that's all they cared about. Then they went hard to get Liverpool its championship.

Now they don't even call the teams "teams," they call them "assets."

FSG would never, not once, as NBA owners cross the second luxury tax threshold. I'm not even confident they'd cross the first.

I'm waiting for Jeremy Jacobs buying the Celtics followed by an extended NBA lockout resulting in the closing of the Bird Rule and Trade Exceptions and a hardening of the soft cap

Deleware North, isn't even based here and there's no truth to any labor contract issues in the NBA.....

As Boston Celtic Fans we are fortunate to have the owners we have. They are willing to pay the price for us to enjoy the best basketball in the World.

Because of these owners and their willingness to spend their money, we have, in my opinion, one of the best GMs in the sports business, Brad Stevens, along with his staff, the best NBA Head Coach, Joe Mazzulla, along with his staff, and then add to that group the best group of players available today. We are so fortunate.

Read what is being written about our Boston Celtics in The Athletic by Jared Weiss:


"Stevens has been smart in his roster construction. He moved to build a juggernaut before the new CBA kicked in and then spent this summer extending the Celtics' top stars for multiple years, thus keeping their window open. Unfortunately for the Celtics ownership group, that means there will be some heavy fines heading their way.

According to The Athletic's Jared Weiss, all indications are that Boston's ownership will eat the additional outlay for as long as the team remains a genuine contender."


I am so lucky to be a fan of this team. Any negatives I post are due to my frustration, my lack of knowledge about the subject or just plain stupidity on my part.

Brad Stevens, as Danny and the legend of Red before him, is President of Basketball Operations.... there is no 'GM' like you see on the hockey side of Delaware North w/ Sweeney.... Neely is as equivalent to what Stevens and Ainge are/were in the hiearchy.... also, Austin Ainge never left Boston when Danny went to Utah.... also of note the full 2024/2025 schedule outside of the IST/NBA Cup will be launched/released at 7 pm on NBA TV

Sure seems like the Sixers are loading up and going all-in.

 

[Mione134]

I wanted him back

 

[CHRDANHUTCH]

I wanted him back

no room on the the current roster after the 2 way contracts and Harper, Jr. and the Exhibit 10 contracts the team already has already committed to.... Yabusele is past the stage of an E-10 deal.... and you want Yabusele over Brissett, is that what you're saying.....

Before Harper was signed, I wanted the dancing bear back. He wanted to come back too. Thought he be a good fit for us.

Harper, Jr ISN'T A guaranteed deal to even be in the organization, either in Boston or Portland.... it's a training camp invitation

We have one spot left right? I would have given it to Yabu

the open spot is an Exhibit 10 contract, which is what Spann is.... NOBODY thought Utah was signing Mykhailuk as FA

Oh well.

Mykhailuk isn't a loss for this team.

FWIW, on his latest podcast, Bill Simmons said that there is legitimate buzz around Amazon's Jeff Bezos buying the Celtics and then building a new basketball and concert venue in Boston.
