Time for Brad to cook. I think a young up and coming team that's still trying to learn how to win might trade for Jrue despite the contract and age. It's crazy how last year he was the guy that always made the right play to settle us and this year was the opposite. Porzingis' contract can be moved despite the health issues cuz he is the 7'3 unicorn when healthy, and only has one year left on his contract. Hauser is on the team to spread the floor for guys to drive or post up, but his defense and rebounding stinks. Al and Kornet are free agents but I would not overpay for them. Brad should get young wings to take the pressure off the Jay's, especially defensively and especially when Jayson comes back. We also need new big men with energy who can defend and rebound. Next year will be an audition for the young guys to see if they've learned anything.

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
His contract was always going to age horribly, that was obvious when it was given out

I completely disagree that he won’t have trade value. There will be teams interested in him and we will absolutely get positive value for him.

Hauser should fetch us something too.

Porzingis might end up being a straight salary dump but because he’s an expiring, somebody will take him.

I don’t think you trade White unless you get an insane overpay, which is not impossible.

Jaylen, idk…

But I don’t hate the idea of getting younger and developing them and seeing where it goes.

Tatum seems to think he can be back after the all star break.

I never said Jrue has no trade value, Bradley Beal has no trade value

But I don’t think there’s going to be a huge market for him bc of his contract

You’d be suprised, especially with Brad Stevens.

I’m very down on Coach Mozzerella but I have complete confidence in Stevens.

I’m not opposed to a bit of a reset. If Horford wants to retire a Celtic, you keep him

Hey, not the best way to end the season, but that's basketball :yeshrug:

Since this is the last time we'll see this team together, I'm proud of the guys. They brought the banner back last year, and I love them for that.


Moving forward tho...

I wouldn't be surprised if Horford retired. He ran it back this season for the B2B, but I think he's out. KP, Jrue, Hauser I'd put on the block. Try to upgrade those pieces and develop the young talent that's on the bench. It's there, for sure.

Cute injury gifted run is now done. Hopefully the nba doesn't hook you bums up for a bit. Let them rot like they did for most of the 90s. 🙏🏾

Miami Heat haven’t won a ring since Obama was president, lost their last 3 Finals appearances, have a senile old man running the team and are a treadmill team stuck in the play in
