Jota posted:Victor Oladipo sucks and gets paid $20 million a year. If Paul George leaves the Thunder still win this trade And Oladipo goes back to Indiana, land of (whole) milk and honey (flavored hard candies) everyone wins! Except, y'know, the Pacers

morestuff posted:I didn't realize Dipo's contract was so bad Yeah lol Oladipo gets paid $21 million per year for the next 4 seasons. Getting rid of that contract alone makes this trade worth it.

Adun posted:A lot of smart GM's are 'scrambling' to compete now (Rockets, Spurs, Thunder, Cavs) because it's their job and the goal of every franchise to win a championship. That's an extremely short sighted way to look at it, I'm glad you're not the GM of my favorite basketball team Adun

NO one could match that rental price? I guess Presti was the only one with the balls to lowball that much.

Its funny thinking about how Ainge is probably offering better deals but based on the assets he has teams wont do it and instead take worse trades. I bet there's a term in economics for this but I'll just call it hilarious spite

I bet there's a term in economics for this but I'll just call it hilarious spite NBA GM's aren't stupid. If Ainge had offered a better deal they would've taken it. From Zach Lowe: quote:Despite reports to the contrary, Boston has not included any of the following in its offers to the Pacers, per league sources: Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, the 2018 Nets pick, and the Lakers-Kings pick Boston snared from Philly in the Markelle Fultz blockbuster.

Please move on and stop worrying about the Celtics, they're fine Come on dude, even you can't be drinking the Kool-Aid that badly. The Celtics most likely just went from signing Hayward + PG to likely nothing. I mean it's arguably even worse if you're trotting out a team of just IT + Hayward on big contracts. Danny Ainge is running a loving Ponzi scheme to keep himself in a perpetual state of 'ASSETS!!!' so he can never be fired.
