Would you forgive Ainge

I'd slap him on the back and buy him a beer.
 
I don't fault Ainge for making the best team he can. But the thought of Ainge shipping Hayward off to Cleveland to play with washed Hill and Hood again... along with JR "I thought we were ahead" Smith and Tristan Kardashian would pleasure the pettiest parts of my soul. 100 bonus points if Brad Stevens approves the trade.

Ainge refused to do a sign and trade. That cost the Jazz a huge trade exception that would have allowed us to get a very good player or recoup assets. I am far more angry at Ainge than Hayward. I would not be surprised or forgive Ainge if he did this. From the Hayward perspective I would love it though. Boston is now my #1 hated team and this would make them great. I hope bron goes to Phily and keeps Boston just out of reach of the finals.

As bad as the whole thing was, Ainge was under no obligation to us to do that. Whether you hate Ainge or not, you have to respect the job he's done in Boston. From Hayward's standpoint, it would be bitter irony. He probably succumbed partially to the romance of reuniting with his college coach, only to have the injury (ouch), sit the year, be ready to come back to live his nostalgia trip, only to be dealt to a Cavs team that would be looking to blow it up post LeBron.
 
Ainge was under no obligation but he was an enormous jerk about it. There is such a thing as building and maintaining good relationships. He has ties to Utah and he screwed us over. Plain and simple. Jazz tried for Crowder but he was too good of an asset. I can understand that. Ainge could have done us a solid by taking Hayward, Tomic, and a second for a scrub or second. No cost to Boston at all to help cut our losses. Since he chose not to help us out. I choose to want Boston to fail in everything they do.
 
I hope Hayward gets traded and then Ainge slips on the winter ice and busts his ankle. Better yet, broken hip.
Does that make me a terrible person for wishing harm on another person? Yes, if I believed Ainge was actually a person. IMO, he's the devil incarnate.
 
Why Ainge would spends one minute of his day just to help the a competitor (the jazz) will remain a total mystery to me. And the rest of the nba. Except for a few jazz fans incapable of seeing the world from anything but a jazz centric perspective. He clearly thought he had better options available for jae and other assets.
 
I think Ainge gets more credit than he deserves. The REAL Russia-gate. How the owners of the celtics shook down a Russian Oligarch for the most lopsided trade in history.

I'm in agreement. It would have been stupid of him to give Utah a trade exception. What if they're after the same player, a possibility given the fact Boston is actively seeking a PF and he knew Favors could leave Utah after this season. Team B wants picks and maybe a young prospect, but doesn't want to take back much in salary. Utah can absorb Player X by using the trade exception. Boston has to give back salaries. Celtics miss out on their veteran trade target and he goes to Utah.
 
woj just released a statement saying that boston was trying to trade for leonard in february.......something tells me that kyrie was in that package, but it be really funny if it was hayward.
 
Kyrie wants Boston to back up the Brinks truck. I think Ainge sees PG can be adequately staffed by Rozier and Smart for half the price. Celtics dont need a ton of scoring from the 1. They need PG's to run the offense and be stout on defense like the rest of the starters. Horford, Tatum and Brown are more than capable of being the 3 main scorers.

I think Irving is likely being shopped.
 
I don’t think Kyrie is going to be an issue either for the Celtics if they want to go after LeBron. It doesn’t appear that Kyrie is all that enthused about staying with the Celtics beyond this season, so I could definitely see a trade happening this summer.

Kyrie Irving says he will not sign an extension with the Celtics, putting Knicks in play
