A few Floors Down from the Daily Grind
http://www.csnne.com/boston-celtics/grousbeck-celtics-unbelievable-offers-were-rejected

"We did try to move up. We try to move up hard for other players to be honest," said Grousbeck. "There was unbelievable offers made and rejected. So it was what it was. It was set in stone where people were drafting, there was one trade ahead of us. We threw in a lot of offers and a lot of assets.

"People were recharging their phones on the fly there were so many phone calls down there," said Grousbeck. "I think the draft has gotten so big and people realize that's the way you get better because guys really aren't moving around teams anymore… People fall in love with their picks and don't want to move them."

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
It's hard to say... They should be a playoff team but by no means are they a contender

There's a lot of shoes left to drop, any or all of smart, Bradley, Turner, ko, and sully could be gone. Plus a ton of draft picks and space to make an impact in free agency.

Within two weeks, we will know his plan.

They're pretty much in the same spot the Rockets were post-Yao pre-Harden. Have a bunch of solid players and future 1st's, but aren't good enough to contend and aren't bad enough to get a high pick in the draft. Just stockpiling young players and assets as they go hoping to be able to flip them into a star at some point.

this is unacceptable horseshyt. when kaminsky got picked at 9 instead of winslow i saw my soul leaving my body thinking charlotte was drafting for us

only smokescreens this fukkin team put out this offseason were from stink bombs. shytty ass disappointment team

ainge better be sure as fukk about aldridge love etc otherwise this was a fukking waste of assets. rozier at 16 and we keep him? :snoop: nothing against rozier but with other players on the board..not trading back for him at the very least is a fukking disgrace. fukk this shyt and fukk this team. if we dont sign someone big AND olynyk is still on the roster day 1 i am not watching ONE GOD DAMN GAME this year. NOT ONE

I had to reread the tweet about 8 times when I saw it said Terry Rozier

There's clearly a trade coming

at this point i dont even care

we'll fukk around and trade IT with all these PGs on the roster, riot status

with all the giants on philly and all our midgets youd think a trade is on deck but im starting to think that hinkie and ainge might just both be retarded

special olympics ass gm's fukk this shyt. ohhh bu bu bu "fireworks fireworks". just a gimmick from our FO to pacify the fan base. in reality no one wants to trade with his mosquito ass blowing up everyone's data plans and no one is going to sign with us because no one ever does. his mitt romney bytch ass has been saying this for 2 years and what do we fukkin have? a bunch of scrub bags that fall in our laps because no other team fukkin wants them. yeah theyre a gem to us ainge and were lucky they dropped to us "ohhh we had them super high on our draft boards and we love them" fukk that. reality is that hes one of the original snakes and agents only fukk with him because he takes distressed assets and gives them stats so they can make money elsewhere :trash:

I'm happy with the end result tbh

There was nobody at 16 I was really dying for

i was in my hotel depressed when kaminsky went 9 and winslow dropped to 10. that was damn near the only scenario that coulda happened that made me happy if the sully or bradley for 9 trade fell through. i had my phone and internet off and heard roziers name through my earmuffs..i literally looked up and said what the fukk? :what:

we coulda had him at like 25..we pass on portis/anderson/grant etc...then we get hunter and a bootleg of another legit name at PG later? hunter is okay but both picks signal a trade that im not going to be fond of or a logjam of trash that means lobo and sully are still on the squad..

if we got kaminsky and paired him with olynyk...:wow: :leon: the white hot intensity of a thousand suns in my head
