Kirby Jackson Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 Crabbe was ballin for Portland though. When is lebron gonna beat Kyrie up. Lol. Yeah, that is ridiculous (and hilarious). That organization is a mess. On Crabbe, you can get 10 points a game for a lot less than $19M. He's a good shooter and a guy that could conceivably take a step forward.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 10, 2017 Posted August 10, 2017 WTF Zach! @spotrac Arrested on drug charges w/ intent to sell, #Kings PF Zach Randolph has reeled in $172M+ in 16 seasons; has $24M left on his deal.
The Poojer Posted August 10, 2017 Posted August 10, 2017 i read the article that was based on the TMZ report and they mentioned the police noticed 3 people grabbing their wastebands and take off running....that made me laugh and shake my head. WTF Zach! @spotrac Arrested on drug charges w/ intent to sell, #Kings PF Zach Randolph has reeled in $172M+ in 16 seasons; has $24M left on his deal.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 10, 2017 Posted August 10, 2017 Crazy story but when the Hornets were playing in OKC Birdman was selling drugs out of the locker room. He'd leave post-game passes for people and meet up after the game in the back. I wasn't there at the time but have heard it from a bunch of people. That's just before his long suspension.

YoloinOhio Posted August 22, 2017 Author Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Wojbomb! @wojespn Cleveland and Boston have moved into serious talks on a trade centered on All-Star guard Kyrie Irving, league sources tell ESPN. Sources: Boston, Cleveland nearing deal on Kyrie Irving, but details still working to completion. Isaiah Thomas, Crowder, pick(s) in talks. Boston center Ante Zizic also expected to be part of a potential Cleveland deal for Kyrie Irving, league sources tell ESPN. Edited August 22, 2017 by YoloinOhio
YoloinOhio Posted August 22, 2017 Author Posted August 22, 2017 @mcten CLE will receive BKN 2018 1st round pick - unprotected - from BOS in the trade that is currently being discussed, league source tells ESPN
BringBackOrton Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Is there still trust in Ainge after this?
26CornerBlitz Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 @GoodmanESPN Cavs agree to deal Kyrie Irving for Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder, Ante Zizic and 2018 Nets pick, source told ESPN. Nice haul for the Cavs.
YoloinOhio Posted August 22, 2017 Author Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Is there still trust in Ainge after this?great trade for Boston! They get a younger, better player, unload Crowder who is redundant with the other guys they have now, and finally use one of their picks Edited August 22, 2017 by YoloinOhio

They get a younger, better player, unload Crowder who is redundant with the other guys they have now, and finally use one of their picks Kyrie is younger and better sure, but that much better? Crowder and the decent prospect and a top 1st pick better? And one who has publicly demanded a trade? I'm shocked, to say the least.

Draft picks in the NBA are like NHL - they are typically very raw. This makes the celtics much better right now. Kyrie >> IT. And I love IT but... he's an overachieving short guy who can't play D and is coming off of a hip injury. Edited August 22, 2017 by YoloinOhio

It's a great move, Crowder wouldn't see much playing time if Ainge made the right picks in Tatum and Jalen Brown, Hayward also fits that mold. A bigger, better scorer, and didn't change their ideal rotation outside of SG. Ba BOOmb. Love it.

As far as the pick - there is no reason for Ainge to keep hoarding picks for the future if it looks Lebron is leaving Cleveland soon. Let's goooooo Edited August 22, 2017 by YoloinOhio
YoloinOhio Posted August 23, 2017 Author Posted August 23, 2017 @wojespn Irving thrilled w/ joining Celtics and they'll have great chance to eventually re-sign him. Boston made deal with strong belief he'll stay.
Kirby Jackson Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) What a deal!! I like it for both teams. I think that the Celts are closer to the Cavs and the Cavs closer to the Warriors if that makes sense? Edited August 23, 2017 by Kirby Jackson
26CornerBlitz Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 @celtics We have acquired four-time All-Star @KyrieIrving in a trade with the @cavs. : http://on.nba.com/2xaD4E9 8:41 PM - 22 Aug 2017

I think that the Celts are closer to the Cavs and the Cavs closer to the Warriors if that makes sense?yes, it's good for both sides. Crowder can guard draymond and klay. Cavs really need that nets pick because they have so little young talent on the roster. Celtics just got better (and younger) right now while still having picks for future. Derrick Rose + IT add scoring. Edited August 23, 2017 by YoloinOhio
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 I am in the minority but I think the cavs robbed the celtics. I would rather have IT-- he is just a fearless, gutsy player. Great scorer and now he has Lebron to set him up. Then you add in a classic role guy like crowder and a pick. The cavs are going to be set up really nicely. I never was a fan of kyrie. More injury prone than IT and not as clutch. He's not going to produce more than IT-- probably much less, in fact.
