resilient part 2 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I am intrigued about Russell he has the talent and the age that would fit in perfectly however I don't know if shoot first point guard is what Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown would want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoleINGout Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Russell is a better passer and truer point guard than Irving without the medical concerns and four years younger. Maybe equally stupid but less selfish of a player and better fit schematically with Brad Stevens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

resilient part 2 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I can't remember a year where Boston has so many possible outcomes with their draft picks trades and free agents, that I have no idea what Boston's roster will actually look like next year. It's kind of exciting in a way though. But worrisome. Ames could really blow this thing if he's not careful or got us for title contention. Most interesting offseason by far ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resilient part 2 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 With KD's injury and inability to "join" Kyrie, does this mean Boston tries to convince Kyrie that by adding AD, he will get his best chance at a title now?? Not saying this will happen, BUT bet Ainge will use this type of leverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would he re-sign with Boston when he can either go to Brooklyn and be the guy OR go to the Lakers and play with LeBron again? I'd say it's something like 85% chance he ends up with the Nets, 10% he ends up with the Lakers, and 5% chance he ends up with the Knicks.

Bad blood is not with Boston but some of their players like Rozier and probably Brown. Kyrie does like Stevens and Ainge and Boston can still pay the most $.. Not saying that Kyrie will sign, just pointing out it may not be as "dead" as people think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reshapes the whole off-season, whether he opts out still or not. Let me plays devil's advocate for a second. How much is actually tied to Kevin Durant? Let's go down the list of FAs. * Kawhi Leonard supposedly has been angling to get to Los Angeles since he asked out of San Antonio. They dealt him to Toronto, and they're one win away from winning an NBA championship. Why would Kawhi suddenly change gears and go from either Toronto or Los Angeles to New York? There were some rumblings about him going to the Knicks, but they were far quieter than either Toronto or Los Angeles. I'd still say there's a 99% chance that he's in a Raptors, Lakers, or Clippers uniform next year. * Kyrie Irving was reportedly rumored to be looking to team up with Kevin Durant on the Knicks after he walked back his commitment to Boston. Then as the season wore on, the Nets seemed to be getting louder and louder and then there was the apology from Kyrie to LeBron that opened up the door for the Lakers. I'd still put the Nets as the heavy favorites to land Kyrie Irving, but the Durant injury certainly hampers the Knicks' chances of signing Kyrie especially if Durant did tear his Achilles. I think I'd put the odds of 85% chance he's in a Nets uniform next year, 10% in a Lakers uniform, and 5% in a Knicks uniform. You probably would have had something like 75%/5%/20% prior to the KD injury. Kyrie is from New Jersey. * Klay Thompson wasn't leaving the Warriors for the Knicks. If the Warriors offer him the max, he's going to re-sign there. If not, maybe he look at the Lakers. But he's not leaving the Warriors. * Jimmy Butler is following the money. He's probably the FA that's most impacted by the Durant injury, especially if Philadelphia doesn't offer him the max. Who offers him the most money? Clippers need a star, they have motivation. The Lakers have LeBron, they have motivation. Jimmy Butler could team up with an injured Durant on the Knicks or Kyrie in Brooklyn. The latter seems far more likely. Jimmy Butler is probably the only guy who is tied to Durant IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
