If I was in an NBA front office I would play the ticking clock sound from the TV show 24 on a loop all day... build a real sense of urgency to make something happen.

I think if anything happens it will be sort of like yesterday... surprising and catches us off guard. We are generally fairly tight lipped. I think the deal yesterday hints at two things:

1- there isn't an obvious deal that makes us better at a cost that seems appropriate.
2- We either think we are okay as is or don't think we are truly a contender.

All I expect is a deal where we send Juan somewhere by giving a second to save some money. Might not even be to OKC since they have 1 million seconds. Remember Cash Considerations is Ryan's favorite player.

I heard he has a great off-the-bounce three.

Can we even trade Juancho again ?

I doubt it. Rodney Hood never did.

35 rolls of TP doe.

We can trade him again now. What we can't is to use him now to aggregate salary for salary matching purposes on a separate deal. Still could posibly find a deal that used Juancho money and expand the current trade tho (but could posibly need to incentivize the other to come along and all teams need to "touch" each other in a multiple team trade)

Right... he can be traded by himself.

Had to edit the post cause sent it before writing it all, but yeah, basically it

I'm still intrigued by Christian Wood. Just putting that out there. Julius Randle would be a bit risky, but could pay off.

I would love to get Wood.

We do this in manufacturing and less so in distribution but it is still used there, but we sometimes set up a countdown timer showing the takt time of the production line, essentially the rate of required production for one item. So if you are producing widgets and you need to finish one off the end of the line every 90 seconds we have a huge timer that everyone in that work cell can see counting down 90 seconds along with an incrementing counter showing how many we have done. It is pretty effective in helping to keep the line moving. So hey, worth a try for the FO stiffs.

So would Ainge, but with his heart attack it's indicative of other possible cardiovascular disease, including, but not limited to, erectile dysfunction.
