This will be a blow for being able to pick up more salary. It will also be the deathblow to Tanner Ainge's congressional campaign.

On a side note, people mentioned rumors of DL bringing up tampering with the league. What was the source of that?

On another note, a number of people have beef with Spencer Checketts. I'm not as familiar with him, but everything from him since #TheIndecision has been great.

Ainge won't even give us the TPE which costs him nothing. Not surprised. Unscrupulous. Probably holding a grudge we wouldn't give a 1st for Crowder.

Why should Ainge feel compelled to give us anything?

The Celtics are not motivated to help the Jazz any way whatsoever. Would have been a nice gesture, but he's not obligated.

For being a **** and clearly having contact with Hayward long before Jul 1st?

Professional courtesy. Son's campaign. Saving face in a state he's connected to.

On the flip side there's only one reason not to do it -- because he's a dick.

DL twice facilitated the Warriors championships.

We probably did. It was reported he wanted a pick + a good young player.

I think Gordon gets his only feedback on Jazz message boards. Is he that dysfunctional to not be able to talk to his former employers? This is like giving the bird to everyone three times over. Chris Paul could do it, but Gordon couldn't? Is his family pushing him to act this way? Strange indeed.

Does he hate Gail Miller? What the heck is wrong? It's a big mystery, not because of idle speculation but because his behavior. Something ugly happened to him or his family or something ugly in his view of the Jazz organization. It is one or the other. If I was a reporter my curiosity would be very high.

Ainge and others look at the Jazz like a big dumb sap freezer.When they get low on good meat ,they just come to the dumb sap freezer and take them the best meat in there.wash rinse repeat.

Lol.

Look, don't give up assets for nothing.

Ainge is signing Hayward whether we "trade" him or not. So because of 'courtesy' he should just give us an asset? That's hilarious.

And DL made those trades bc we needed to fill up cap space and we got draft picks. It benefitted both teams. Ainge has no reason to give us a TPE. It doesn't benefit him.
