    I’m glad you are satisfied with mediocrity. You will be one of the only Rocket fans to enjoy our march to a first round exit and KD marching up the scoring ladder. You get mad and start ragging on anybody that doesn’t share your delusional love for KD and FVV. I’m not going to waste my time arguing with a kool-aid drinking casual like you.

    It’s probably just clickbait. It would have to be Fox, filler and draft picks for Brown which would basically doom the Celtics championship hopes. I think the Brown trade rumors are all bs. Both the FO and Brown have said they don’t have any problems. The Celtics are a decent center away from being favorites in the East next year and have the apron room to make it happen.

    Your notion of cause and effect is embarrassingly ignorant. . Real fans don't need to be dishonest about players.

    Again..... If Amen was able to lead the offense in a meaningful way.... he would have been doing it. Again..... Jalen Green would still be a Rocket if he could close out games but instead FVV had to play that role.

    It looks like Giannis will be in Miami.

    What are you going to do about the interior defense? Sengun?

    I can't blame him for wanting to be in Miami, although the easy connections to everywhere from Miami are marred by the worst airport ever.

    You realise Giannis goes to the Celtics in that scenario?

    Fox and picks to the Bucks. Spurs can throw a LOT of picks at them. Could even take Booker's salary - he'd be a great fit.

    Doesn't he probably just charter a private jet? Or maybe even own one at this point?

    I think Miami is a weird choice for him from a basketball perspective. Boston would make much more sense. I don't think Miami are contenders either way. Especially since they kinda have to send out Herro to get him, which means their spacing is going to suffer quite a bit. Maybe he doesn't care about winning another ring at this point and just wants to enjoy the beaches and nightlife. Shrug.

    It’s all moot. JB is not going anywhere.

    Yes, and I trust Pat Riley to make another move or two that puts the Heat roster right at the top of the Eastern Conference.

    What I question is can an aloof guy like Giannis fit into the Heat culture, both on and off the court. Spoelstra and Riley don't mess around.

    Hearing Spurs are interested and offering Fox Bryant picks.

    Brad Stevens is one of the smartest people in the NBA. Celtics are in "win now" mode and this proposal sounds like preposterous nonsense only a Spurs fan would dream up.

    Considering his extension kicks in next season, Spurs are stuck with Fox for at least two more years IMO.

    If we are getting players like Jaylan Brown, the ownership will absolutely want to pair them with KD and Amen (just feels like Sengun will be the center of any major trade deal).
