Pitiiiiiinoooooooo!
he's got a year or 2 to get acclimated with the young guys we have, and maybe by then we will have picked up a top draft pick and he can build this team with danny.
i'm so glad danny didn't go with some del negro type retread, i'm very interested to see how this works out.
Holy shit indeed. I am sitting in a classroom at Butler as I write this and everyone is sort of freaking out.

I just watched DRose interview with Bulls interview, he said he is still going through stages for recovery. How long has it been 14 months?

LOL when Brad Stevens is a revolutionary NBA coach and gets his scrub roster to the 9th seed in the East. He is then immediately fired for not tanking.

Dwight's leaving for sure now. If he didn't learn to wear a condom after the 2nd child with a 2nd woman, no way he's going to allow Kobe Bryant to teach him to be a champion.
That's out of left field. Hope he likes tanks. Guess Ainge liked him because he's an analytics guy. Is they why they took Olynyk : (
then danny can say "see i told you i wasn't tanking!"
losing doc for a 1st and getting brad stevens? that could end up being a coup for the celtics.

Brad Stevens not a vs coach to rebuild with. No expectation for sucess.
I think he's in the acceptance stage now.

i'm baaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaack
Agreed.
I'm a little shocked. Clearly I was wrong, but he always seemed like someone who would stay in the college game. Crazy.

Rondo for Gordon Hayward. Who says no (aside from Rondo)?

diehard would internally combust.
do it stevens!
btw, Kidd is older than Stevens, hah.
I'm not sure why he would want to leave a more talented team.
The last Celtics coach did pretty well.

Hopefully the wiz can pry Shaka in a year
I feel like i'm the only person in the world that thinks Dallas is the best fit for Dwight, i mean:
a) he's already publicly stated he wants to play with a owner like Mark Cuban
b) When healthy, Dirk is a better superstar option than Harden. When it's time for the postseason and both are healthy, who would you depend on to come through in a big time, clutch moment in a tough series vs OKC, SAS, LAC, etc? Dirk. Plus he's won a title and knows what it takes to climb the mountain, he's like a less douchey version of Kobe.
c) Carlisle is a much better coach than either D'antoni or Mchale, so you won't have to clash with coaches who obviously don't know what the fuck they're doing and get them fired after one year.
If he wants to win a title, out of the 3 main teams he should come to Dallas. But whatever, i'm preparing for the worst.

Rose's knees were not good before the injury. I can understand him be cautious.

Story posting now WITH @GoodmanESPN: Sources say Kings RFA Tyreke Evans is ready for change of scenery and wants to wind up in New Orleans
He's like the reverse Eric Gordon.

Dirk is 35 and has slipped the last 2 years as well as those injury concerns. And other than Marion, they have no one of worth right now on the team.
if I was Howard, I'd choose Harden and houston over Dallas. I don't see the appeal regarding Dallas at all, really. Right now, that is. Love Dirk, but why would you choose him and Marion today over Harden, Parsons, Lin, + Asik's contract will get.

So you want Carmelo instead of LeBron?
Not like isnt the correct term.
Always knew the truth would be a better one.
Oh come on. Everyone knows it's true.
Wiggins will probably be drafted first overall and we haven't gotten a 1st overall draft pick in like 25 years.
did rondo's triple double bonanza a few postseasons ago kill you inside?
Ricky Davis had more legit triple doubles.
How is the guy that does pass translate into Melo?

Whats the truth?
That the Celtics were incapable of running anything resembling an offense without him?
But I do expect the Celtics to trade him now. Probably something crazy like to the Knicks for Tyson Chandler or whatever.
