    Woj came off as someone who was trying to save face for Boston. Defended them against the “spin” that was going on with the negative comments. Didn’t really offer up anything new, just regurgitating the same spoon fed stuff Ainge has been giving him.
    Boston is ready to deal in the summer, have assets and young players.

    We have mid-teens draft picks + Brown and maybe Tatum. Best deal ever! Give me a break, people are too stupid to see that it’s not leaps and bounds better than others can bring. Boston has picks they have been saving for years for this, they have to be valuable even though we don’t know they actually aren’t!

    Remember last time Boston had a bunch of mid-teen picks? They got denied trying to trade up for Kaminsky or Winslow. So much value they couldn’t even get role players!

    Just looking at the current construction of the roster, it seems like a bunch of assets. 3 SFs that all need time, Hayward is crumbling under the pressure of those two guys wanting time and development. Even if Hayward was healthy, I don't know how it would work. We could barely split time between Nance and Randle. Ainge is hyper aggressive in stockpiling assets, I don't know how well at team construction. As a player, I would not like to feel like an asset, it and it's probably magnified in that locker room right now.

    Dude skates through that presser, making sure not to make the Pels look bad (needs to play nice with them to get this trade done) and didn't mention the Lakers at all (cause tampering, duh).

    I love how quiet they ALL are at BSPN ever since AD’s presser and what AD’s dad said.

    They literally have nothing now. F your sources.

    Oh the level of petty and bias will shock you.



    As a cap guy, I like and respect Bobby alot...but Espn really reaching deep into their bag like that for Boston/Ainge...unreal.

    Btw, a player's agent and a player's dad...totally the same thing.

    BSPN is on one...

    Completely agree. It’s just Incompetent management plus what appears to be a legit conspiracy to keep us down.

    Let’s see what Ainge does without his former teammate running the show with the other team.

    Still puzzled at why the C Bags keep getting brought up with 6 days left til the trade deadline when they can't do jack s***. Danny Ainge would trade 4 homeless midgets and his mother. This is not a surprise. The guy holds on to assets like they are attached balls. The hilarious thing about all this "genius" from him, is in 3 months, it isn't going to mean jack squat.

    I think his biggest mistake was when he decided not to unload some of those assets for Jimmy Butler as opposed to signing Gordon Hayward. Some of the trade proposals being rumored back before Jimmy was traded from the Bulls would have left the C Bags with a core of Butler, Irving, Horford, and Tatum. The Hayward signing will likely be his undoing.

    Yeah that Hayward contract has become one of the worst in the league.

    Shams tweet is weird. Why is he framing it like Rondo/Lance are the core of the proposal and the young kids are afterthoughts? If they’re being offered 2 out of 3 between BI, Kuz, and Lonzo, that’s the core. Rondo/Lance/Beasley would be filler.

    Feels like he’s pushing an agenda.

    That’s besides the point that these are weird offers. I don’t buy it.

    A second tier star is better than anyone on the C Bags not named Irving.

    Those are weird offers tbh. BOTH of our point guards? And hell, Rondo and Beasley/Lance?

    These might be Rob's deals instead of Magic's 5 later?

    Rondo and Stephenson? I'm a Laker fan and I would laugh at those two being in the deal. If true, who do the Lakers put at the point? Robinson Caruso?

    Only chance this deal happens is if a 3rd team is involved. There will never be a direct trade between the two. It's too goofy.
