Celtics/NBA Off-Season/Draft - Celtics complete sign-and-trade, send Gordon Hayward to Hornets

[Smitty93]

L-O-L. Feels like a classic Ainge pick.

Loved watching Pritchard in college, but I think he's Aaron Craft. He plays really hard, but I'm not sure he's an NBA player. I guess we'll see.

From the mean streets of West Linn, home of Uncle Chael Sonnen

4 year player, was great as a senior. Backup PG

Almost two thirds of the players Danny has selected have washed out of the NBA.

 

[Troublesome 85]

And there is no summer league so when will someone like this dude get in any sort of playing time?

 

[Johnnyduke]

I really couldn't care less about these two picks

Pfffft. Yeah...I'm sure he will be for the Red Claws in Maine. But in the NBA? He won't beat out Brad Wanamaker and he won't even beat out Carsen Edwards and Tremont Waters.

PAC-12 Player of the Year. Another shooter.

Nesmith and Pritchard are good picks though.

Nesmith and Pritchard are good picks though.

For the Maine Red Claws? Yes. Both of them will be integral for the Red Claws' G League title run. For the Celtics? Nesmith has the only real chance of sniffing any real minutes. Pritchard will be lucky if he even has a spot on the bench.

They wont match Brad's contract. Best believe.

I meant 26 and 30. I am fine with Nesmith. Celtics needed a shooter.

I guarantee Pritchard and Nesmith both make the roster and have roles. You and underestimating these picks.

 

[GloveSave1]

Projected late 2nd round pick.

I think Donny and Danny are the same guy. Heh

“...and I would have gotten away with it if it wasn’t for you meddling kids!”

 

[Gordoff]

Sixers trade Al Horford and two draft picks to Oklahoma City in exchange for Danny Green.

My guess is that Al - who I legitimately like - is not unhappy.

See now, this is what hockey is missing!

No. I am valuing them at what they are. Surplus players to requirements that do nothing to help elevate this team in the here and now. The Celtics should have flipped those picks for a real player like Myles Turner or Andre Drummond. But nope. Danny got cold feet again and became Hoarder Danny and bite the bullet on picks of players that will do diddly squat only to piss off their one true superstar in Jayson Tatum who will bounce out of Boston the first second he gets a crack at being a UFA.

Bogdanovic tanked the trade to the Bucks, he wants to try his RFA status on the open market

Payton Pritchard: 'Everybody likes to win. I separate myself because I hate to lose'

This kid reminds me of Smart. Just a pure dog willing to do anything to get better and win. Hates to lose.

The drama of it all!

shhhhhhhh. Don't reveal the secret.

Danny made a trade? He remembered how to make a trade? Well I'll be damned.

 

[GloveSave1]

Edwards last year, Pritchard his year, who will be the little PG shooter next year? We buy in bulk.

 

[EvilDead]

All the Maine Red Claws fans are disappointed about this trade. All 5 of em.
