Raptors already got too many forwards, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to take Porzingis and cut Detroit out

Y’all do realize that we can’t get anyone for Porzingis right now, don’t you? He is damaged goods. Nobody is taking a respiratory system compromised player for that contract. I don’t care if it is expiring. This condition might linger for the rest of his life if he’s suffering post COVID symptoms like many are suspecting. May never be the same again.

We are stuck with a lemon now. If he’s fully healthy, we win that Knicks series with ease. Everyone is rightfully killing Mazzulla, but Porzingis is the key that unlocks everything. Sad to see him go out like this. Maybe we can get a medical exemption if he still can’t breathe next year?

The way I see it, trading Porzingis will be addition by subtraction. If we manage to get a rotation player out of that’s just a bonus

Did ya'll hear the Al Horford exit interview?

Sounds non-committal and also sounds like he's looking for more money and/or wants to go to a contender

Definitely time for Uncle Al to go somewhere and be a role player for a team that needs veteran guidance

I mentioned it in the random thoughts thread, but the Celtics have a problem on their hands.

Next years first round pick just got more valuable with JB/Tatum both looking at major injuries and with what we just saw with the Mavericks, a team can easily move up to #1 if the chips fall in their favor.

Unfortunately for them, teams are going to ask for that pick in exchange of moving of salary for someone like Jrue.

The east is so bad, it’d really be impossible for the Celtics to not be a playoff team even without Tatum for the year

Tatum seems to think he will be back after the all star break next year tho

He’s an expiring, they’ll be able to move him. I don’t expect a haul back for him but we traded marcus smart for him and got a pick back so we are playing with house money
