[Jones]BREAKING: Jazz willing to engage Celtics in S&T talks: But Gordon Hayward must agree

The reason this hasn't gone threw is because the Celtics probably want Hood and the Jazz are probably saying "heck no," to it. We all know Crowder wants out now, and he definitely will get traded even if it isn't to the Jazz
 
Like I pointed out several pages ago, Crowders advanced stats shows he's close to Haywards level. Bot as good a scorer, but a really good player nonetheless. It would be an AMAZING consolation price.

Agreed, as long as Crowder is happy coming to Utah. Who wouldn't want to play with Rudy? Except Gordo.
 
I don't know your history but again, if this is something you've had to deal with personally then I'm sorry for what you've been thru. And for what you are forced to carry because of your history.

But if you're merely being offended by proxy in order to virtue signal to everyone on a sports fan forum, derailing the topic to shine a holy light on yourself then I want to out you for it.

no way in hell they are asking for Hood with any expectation of us saying Yes. And, they're already balking at paying Bradley next year. You think they want to face the Hood extension at the same time?

Hood isn't a part of this. Neither is Exum.
 
Yesterday was my birthday and I was hoping the Crowder deal would get done before midnight so I could celebrate. It's still amazing.

This is turning out better than if we'd traded Dash Gordon last season or the season before for Crowder and picks - we made it to the second round of the playoffs, drafted Mitchell and Bradley, got Rubio for a protected first and will be getting Crowder and an exception. Our roster is still good. People were calling for a rebuild and DL is making it a reload. If Boston really thinks they're getting Gasol, Ainge might try to add another player, we'll see. But Crowder is a perfect fit here.
 
Between Crowder, the cap space savings and the exception we might be better off long term than we would be with Hayward staying.

Very real possibility.

I wonder if Ainge is regretting not trading next year's BKN pick + filler for Jimmy B instead of gutting his bench for Haywood? This 'Gordo is an asset-free or asset-lite acquisition' idea isn't looking so good.
 
Only Danny Ainge would sit around splitting hairs on pick protections from a team that he just took their (arguably) best player. ****ing miser.
