Boston adds 2nd round pick to finalize the Kyrie Irving trade

[IllmaticDelta]

Approx. 1 year from now

 

[pimpineasy]

I mean....pure business stand point....your capped out while laying IT less than 7mil a year...he's spoken 40 times about wanting the max next year...when he's 30.

You can get a incredibly similar player who is 5 plus years younger and under contract for 2 more years at over $10 million less a year than you'll have to pay IT.

Tell me why Danny Ainge is stupid again for looking at this deal??

Dudes here are all emotional and forget there is a business aspect to this.
Both teams won but they got worse.
Danny gutted the team have to see chemistry and defense

Cavs getting it doesn't address their issue of defense. Scoring wasn't an issue. At least against gs. I like the pick and Crowder contract but I dont see the utilizing it like Stevens and celtics

 

[Flight]

Pull up

My dawg talking greasy like NY isn't busy hyping some kids up for some layups...

 

[chowism]

Celtics lawst

 

[Mad Good Dro]

Celtics won like how I called this a month ago and got negged haha fukk y'all Kyrie Hayward Handsome Horford run this shyt now

Celtics got worse

Lebron gon drop 35/11/11 on yall, who guarding him?

And yall gave these nikkas pontentially the #1 pick

 

[CarltonJunior]

Breh...them three ain't doin shyt breh.....Horford always been meh, and Heyward ain't dominant like that. Kyrie really has to take his game to another level for them to dominate and threat for ecf....they'll have a tough time against the wizards.....Cavs gotta be HEAVY favorite once again now.....don't forget K love still on deck too

If by on deck you mean the trade block then yeah..

How do you go from passing on crowder and a nets pick for jimmy butler to giving up ISAIAH THOMAS, crowder, and a nets pick for kyrie

Looks like a case of "having to do something" with all the assets etc. When you start the offseason with talks of PG or Butler and end up with Hayward, that's just not enough. TBH kind of reminds me whne the Knicks signed Amare in the summer of 2010, feeling was we HAD to do something. But here it's different because Ainge pumpfaked himself in this situation, and ends up helping his direct rival

 

[thashiek]

It feels like the Celtics have done everything in their power to sabotage themselves this off-season.

 

[PortCityProphet]

so they traded IT for a bigger version of himself and gave away a pick? I'm not a GM but even I know that's stupid

 

[tjax03]

Boston won


Cleveland dont have a legitimate number 2 anymore.

Who gonna score when lebron sitting?

IT was shut completely down in the playoffs. The celtics got better whem he got injured. Dude was a liability on the floor for them. Plus he got a bum hip.

 

[Eye Cue DA COLI GAWD]

Y'all really underrating Kyrie man


You'll see.

 

[tremonthustler1]

Pull up

*keak da sneak voice* tell me when to go

 

[Lootpack]

NBA fukkery just dont stop

We should've got that Nets pick.

 

[Miggs]

My dawg talking greasy like NY isn't busy hyping some kids up for some layups...

Ill have redemption when drew is an all star this year,im gonna be handing out negs like flyers outside the club...

 

[Stuntone]

Cleveland now has some good trade bait. I'd package, Love, Thomas, Shumpert for a good big man and defender.
