So he been there before Pat Riley. When he leave the Knicks, 97?

 

[dacomeup]

Well he can blame himself

Exactly. In a previous CBA the Celtics would just be incentivized to overpay because he’s valuable to them tbh

 

[dacomeup]

I wouldnt call either of them soft.

But idk how many times you can run it back. How much better are you really going to get?

Tatum isn’t even in his prime years yet. I think it’s reasonable to keep riding it out with these guys a few more years.

They were absolutely going to give him a good contract under previous CBA. Zero reason not to. Under new one though you just can’t afford to give your 6th/7th guy that kind of money.

So then, if you’re that kind of role player, you basically have to just pray the money the few under-cap teams have doesn’t dry up before they get to you.

I think Caleb Martin is turning into my favorite role player in the league.

He's like a Josh Hart with a jumpshot. Dude is a 20 mill/year player

Josh Smart dribbles worse than Jaylen

 

[niketock88]

One “take” I have is IDK why B Sox thinks it is ridiculous that folks are questioning the idea of paying Jaylen Brown $59MM annually especially with this new CBA kicking in that will be limiting If you are Boston you have to at least see what else you could get for him. A deal may not be worth it but you absolutely have to check the temperature of the marketplace.

Because he works for the Celtics

I think the requirement to spend 90% of the salary cap will help with that

Again I don’t know what a point guard does for them. A facilitator is still going to have the two guys taking turns because they don’t create shots for each other.

a facilitator gets guys like them high percentage shots instead of iso ball

Tatum is still 19 right?

 

[elpablo21]

He Gone

 

[denni5themenace]

bob myers running from the grind

signed poole to that massive contract and fumbled all those picks. steps away from having to deal with the mess that is klay and draymond's contracts lol

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

Putting it into perspective, Doc has coached 36 more playoff games and 9 years more than him

i think we forget that lebbywinks led spo all those years

 

[WASHED KING]

He sees the writing on the wall.

Much joy

End of an era

Thanks freeze

 

[antidope]

Welp it's over for the Dubs. Hard to see anyone else keeping the desire for more money under control over there.
