The Official BigFooty Boston Celtics Thread

[Memphis]

Would try and swindle Portland in a trade for Kemba, Grant williams, Langford and like 5 first round picks for Lillard.

 

[Memphis]

As per Woj there was an interview with Billups for the head coaching role.

 

[RangaInTeal]

I hope for Cassell, Billups or Marbury to set up as our Head Coach.

I would also be blowing up the Roster, Keeping Tatum, Brown, R.Williams, Langford, Nesmith, Pritchard, Parker, Kornet, Waters and Fall. Moving on Walker, Smart, Fournier, G.Williams, Ojeleye, Thompson and Edwards. Happy to sell 21, 22, 23 and 25 first round selections also!

Need to get Taller, Quicker with ball handling and Perimeter shooting.

 

[RangaInTeal]

Like Hayward we got them at the wrong time in their careers.

stiff on Gordon, the leg stuffed him.

 

[Chadwiko]

I want Kara Lawson as our head coach.

 

[Memphis]

Sam Cassell confirmed?

Sam Cassell confirmed?

Happy with this

Moe Brown is interesting, maybe not confident Williams happy to hang around on money we are comfortable to offer? Horford spells the end for Kornet.

Definitely need ball security, Smart most likely to hold value to aquire said talent without giving up one of the Jays.

 

[Jack Richards]

Not a great trade but not as terrible as it looks on paper.

We weren't going to get much for Walker. An aging short PG with a bung knee that cost 16 games this season was never going to get a big swarm of suitors without us adding something.

We get Horford who is older but in a role that suits (back up C) and a Developing 2 way tall which we have been lookinh for.

What we really get in this is cap flexibility. We are actually saving over $20mill in guaranteed money to pay up.

Downside is we are planning on using that to try and secure fournier.

 

[Bostonian]

This better mean Thompson is out the door too. This roster is constructed very poorly at present.

Want to see Stevens give the blokes the flick:
Semi olejeye
Thompson
Langford
Smart

Nahh Langford can hang about, agree on the others!

 

[NeutralFan]

Never want to see Smart in another jersey.
Thompson, Grant Williams, Edwards, Kornet and Ojeleye can go.

 

[Memphis]

Still need a solid PG though.

It looks like Stevens is trying to clean up the mess that ainge left.

 

[Bostonian]

And that's the issue with Stevens running things.

If he's got a fave player he won't move them on because he'll be overrating them .

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Seems like he has a solid CV.

 

[Memphis]

Seems like he has a solid CV.

Keen to see how this goes.

Was under pop for 7 years so you'd think he know a thing or two. Long as he is sound defensively I'm fine with this.

 

[workhorse]

Went to the school of Pop, thats a good start! Best of luck Ime

 

[Chadwiko]

Wanted Kara Lawson, but still very happy with Ime.

It's going to create a lot of space for Tatum and Brown on the wings.

 

[Bostonian]

Pop is a f***wit, hope this guy isn't.

Was she in the running?

 

[Chadwiko]

Was she in the running?

It's hard to say definitively because the Celtics played their cards pretty close to their chest. But Brian Scalabrine and a few other Celtics insiders said yes.

Would've been an interesting and unique choice

 

[Chadwiko]

Celtics were the first team in the major sports leagues to have a black head coach. Would have been good to be the first franchise to have a female head coach.
