Adrian Wojnarowski: Boston Celtics Are In for Blake Griffin

[William F. Russell]

Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical Podcast with Woj:
I think the Clippers may think this too, and certainly some other teams. Boston is really the danger for Blake Griffin.

I think Boston’s two primary free-agent targets right now are Gordon Hayward and Blake Griffin. Now they’re not going to get both of them, but they’re both players who would potentially have interest there and who Boston I think looks at in different ways with their future.


Adrian Wojnarowski: Celtics ‘really the danger’ to sign Blake Griffin from Clippers

I'll be straight up, I wouldn't be a fan of the move. As a matter of fact, I'd hate it.

And, yes, I understand that Griffin is a freak of an athlete and has proven to be a really good No. 1 option in CP3's absence but dude's injury record is suspect as all hell.

Thoughts?

I dont see how that helps them beat Cleveland forget about Golden State.

 

[Rosecrans]

It would make them become a faux super team :umadcac:

Like I said, I think with Hayward you at least have a guy who is up and coming and who Stevens knows well. I just don't think he's worth the max. Blake is always injured or something going on with him, I don't think you can win a title if Blake is your best player.

Why though? Waste of money

 

[Jplaya2023]

they need wing players, having blake is stupid when you have AL. they play the same position blake is more athletic al is a better shooter

 

[jdubnyce]

Gordon > Blake

 

[I AM WARHOL]

It helps them but not much. Better rebounding. More scoring. Another playmaker. Wouldnt hurt

 

[Scruffy]

They need additional play makers

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

They need a wing, not another 4.

 

[Lootpack]

No fireworks.

 

[Turk]

Bad idea

 

[Paradise50]

Bill Simmons threw this rumor out a good 1-2 weeks ago.
