    Boston might have called …. Tilman told Morey to hang up - unless they were sending C3P0 out in exchange.

    What part of I'm not paying the tax do you not understand Daryl ?!.

    This stuff sounds eerily familiar:


    Risk is too high. If he recovers, it could be great. If he doesn't, we are DONE for years. Chances are, Ainge wouldn't be offering if he were optimistic about recovery this season.

    Knight/Chriss/Zhou/Nene and the 2.5 million Ryno TE doesn't work?

    If Ainge wants to trade with you then you most likely lost the trade even before it happened.

    Don't need him, can't afford him. DO NOT WANT. Wouldn't be prudent. Even if Ainge accepts Knight/Chriss/Zhou/Nene and the 2.5 million Ryno TE, because Knight and Nene might give us something late in this season-- and our window is closing soon.

    He wouldn't. He's just trying to dump Hayward and get the most he can while the season is still young.

    IIRC, it's against league rules to combine trade exceptions with players in attempting to increase the salary you're trying to take back.

    Gets rid of one white guy contract of 20 million.
    Answers phone call for new white guy contract of 30 million.

    queue I have grown to hate Hayward threads.

    I love Hayward. One of my favorite players before his injury.

    Zero interest

    Who knows if he can return to his former self. He's been pretty bad this year and has a lot of years/money left on his deal. I'd stay away unless we literally only have to give up scraps.

    Jaylen has other issues that will finally surface. I said he's got skills and he's got talent, and he's got athleticism. But there's a reason Ainge makes him available.

    Morey doesn't fear rejection. He can be rejected 10 times in a row but will keep going

    You miss 100% of the shots you don't take

    Ainge fu***ed up and now he's calling his old pal D-Mo for some lovin.

    I say let those MFs burn with the house they built. No reason to bail them out now.
