keep telling yourself that fgt

So over Crowder... dude is so dramatic all the time. Fans cheered Hayward because they want the team to get a great player, he flips out... fans want Paul George, he's retweeting a ton of negative tweets.

Just get this guy out of here, he can't ignore haters.

Agreed

Ainge was on WEEI yesterday, said he's "Not looking to trade (Jayson) Tatum or (Jaylen) Brown"

So lets have some fantasy fun
Assume we are able to pull this off

1)Sign Hayward
2)Trade for PG <--- Smart, AB, Crowder, Rozier, protected 1st. (Def have everything to acquire him)

Tatum + Brown + BK pick + Lakers 1st + Rights to Zizic + Zeller(salary match)
That is potentially another big trade, no?

lol

I'd hate to get rid of both Smart and Bradley, hope we keep one.

No one is untouchable though IMO if we can somehow convince PG to sign LONG TERM ONLY

I find it hard to believe that we can get him to sign an extension.

Our best bet it to just sign Hayward and keep guys around that we can use to match salary and see what happens.

me too... there have been "reports" thrown around supposedly that if somehow we get Hayward, PG would sign long term. not sure how credible that is.

I read somewhere that we need to keep like $10M in cap space in order to sign that extension too?

Don't know how we'd do that. Assuming we reject Olynyk's qualifying offer and let Zeller become a FA too, we'd only have like $3-5M in cap space left after signing so we definitely would need to include Crowder + in order for it to even work.

Also if we were to get both, and it's very unlikely, but would we run Thomas - Hayward - George - ??? - Horford? Or would George play PF lol and we'd have the worst rebounding team ever.

Too bad we can't get Porzingod, that would solve a lot of problems
