    I have so much faith in Ainge, I'm not even worried. The guy is great at what he does.

    I'd like to see Cousins, Love, and obviously my favorite player of all time, Paul Pierce, in Boston.

    Definitely not championship contenders, but I like the direction they're going in, and obviously Danny is stockpiling talent, so he can trade for a stud, so he can entice free agents to come to Boston, to play for Stevens, and talent...

    I'm confident the Celtics will be title contenders again, within 5 years. Overly confident about it too. Mostly because of Stevens.

    I think that Batum trade was great for Portland. Henderson can do almost everything Batum can, minus the playmaking, and for about $4 million cheaper, and they were somehow able to snag Vonleh as well. It gives them some cap space to resign LA, Wes, and Afflalo if they want, while also getting a potential long term replacement for LA. Idk what the h--- Charlotte is thinking, giving away a #9 pick in the lottery last season for a player on a 1 year deal who probably won't resign next unless you overpay him.

    Depends what Batum Charlotte gets. Last year he took a pretty significant step back, but if they get the guy from the three previous years then they get significantly better short term. Cap goes up next year too so maybe they can re-sign him.

    Vonleh is a bit of a project and maybe Charlotte didnt think it would work out.

    So excited for the draft. Hearing a bunch of rumors, but I think Towns will go 1, Russell 2, and who the f--- knows after that. Heard the Celtics are prepared to offer a significant trade package to the 76ers if Jahlil is still on the board at 3. Regardless of what happens I can't wait!!!!

    Ya the Celtics are involved in so many trades. Seems like Smart involved in a lot of potential deals, which is too bad because i like him a lot.

    Yeah seems like he could be a good player, but can't fault Ainge on swinging for the fences especially if Jahlil is on the board.

    Lakers must be confident in getting Aldridge or Love because Julius Randle is not a reason to skip out on Okafor.
