Re: 2023 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (WCF/ECF) News Thread
I did want Chriss…I sorta liked Sabonis, but don’t think we would’ve developed him right anyways. OKC didn’t either, he had to go to Indy.
I did not want Bender. I would’ve taken Hield.

Feels like the Celtics will be in for some big offseason changes, I think they'll be in on Ayton.

Brown looks ... lost. Maybe he does need a change of scenery.
Even though Celtics have had several coaching changes in recent years, Mazzulla looks in over his head. Not an inspiring presence ...

Brown, Brogdon, Tatum and White are 15-50 in three quarters.

The Celtics would be dumb to overhaul their roster. They need a better coach.

If they knew about the Udoka stuff and still let Hardy get away... that's a colossal mistake.TOO wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 8:02 pmThey had one but he took a promotion.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 7:35 pmThe Celtics would be dumb to overhaul their roster. They need a better coach.
It could've just been bad luck.

I don't think Jalen Brown is a realistic acquisition for the Suns. Marcus Smart is the guy I'd like to bring in if possible.

Either of Brown or Smart is much better than anybody else I've seen bandied about as a trade for Ayton so far.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Sun May 21, 2023 8:15 pmI don't think Jalen Brown is a realistic acquisition for the Suns. Marcus Smart is the guy I'd like to bring in if possible.
Re: 2023 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (WCF/ECF) News Thread
Am I the only one who doesn't want Brown? Something seems off, him and Tatum have no idea how to play off of each other, no clue how he'd exist with Book/KD.
Re: 2023 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (WCF/ECF) News Thread
I think they're one of a number of teams unhappy with how their season ended who could convince themselves that they'll be the ones to turn Ayton into the difference maker that he should be.

Would they? Not sure they would want him plus I think Jaylen Brown’s FA might complicate things but maybe we could help with a reset?
What about this?
Blazers - S&T Jaylen Brown, Ayton
Celtics- Shamet, Simmons, Nurkic, 3rd Pick( celts draft Scoot or Miller)
Suns- Brogdon, Horford or Williams, Shaedon Sharpe
Blazers get a big 3 or Big 4 if they re-sign grant.
Celtics get to draft Scoot or Miller to pair with Tatum and dominate for the next decade with Simons too. Celtics gets younger with a pair some nice role players as well.
Suns get a perfect guard to pair with Booker in Brogdon, a solid center to replace Ayton and a great prospect in Sharpe who could develop into a star and be the future running mate with Book in the backcourt.

Re: 2023 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (WCF/ECF) News Thread
I think Brown is great, but the "three star" thing simply hasn't worked. One guy always has to become an elite-skill role player (Bosh, Draymond/Klay, Jrue) and do the little stuff. That's really hard to make work if all three guys are scorers before anything else.
I wouldn't be worried about Brown and Tatum together if I were a Celtics fan. They'll be fine when they get a coach they can believe in again.

Lebron has 21 in the 1st quarter and the Lakers are up 6 at the end of the 1st. Lakers maybe win one for pride here, then get stomped in Denver in Game 5.
Re: 2023 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (WCF/ECF) News Thread
Lebron with 31 at the half. Lakers up 73-58.
