>>implying the Celtics have assets to get both
Except they literally do? They have their 2017 1st rd pick (better of Nets/Celtics), 2018 unprotected Nets 1st, Avery Brown, Jayden Brown and Isiah Thomas all as reasonable tradeable assets if they know they're getting both Westbrook and Griffin.

>I'm told that a Westbrook trade to Boston is veeeery close to being finalized if both teams can agree on details...
suspect source, but its info...
>>69536185
(Also: Celtics fans keep wildly overvaluing the Nets picks... and almost everyone else seems to be overestimating the amount the Celtics would have to trade to get Westbrook/Griffin)
>>69536049
OH SHIT SWEET! PRIGIONI IS A ROCKETS LEGEND!
>>69536185
Isiah Thomas is not a good trade piece, not for griffin and wb mate.
>>69536229
You mean Sam Presti is working the phones and Danny Ainge is waiting for the right time to fleece him.
The asking price at this point is too high so Danny Ainge will be waiting until the trade deadline as Sam Presti gets more desperate. He'll also remember the Green-Perkins trade where the Celtics won since Perkins was useless on their roster while Green was a serviceable wing until he got traded to the Bears.
>>69536251
yeah who needs a cold-blooded 20+PPG assassin of a scorer anyways? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>69536268
What? The Perkins trade was terrible and destroyed the morale of the team, meanwhile green is, was and forever will be utter Doo Doo
>books nigga is absolutely BTFOing summer league
This nigga can't be stopped when healthy
Already looking like the best player in the draft
>>69536251
He's a trade piece if they're getting Westbrook.
>>69536271
He's a westbrook who is literally less efficient in every way possible (especially height and strength).
He's not going to be in a package deal for WB unless the thunder have lost their fucking minds.
>>69536303
>Have you been able to see much of Boston yet? Are you excited to explore? You've taken some graduate classes—are you going to tap into some of the schools in the area to explore advancing your education further?

Won't he trigger 90% his brethren with his educated melanin enriched initiative?
>>69536324
No I refuse to admit that's happening, this fucking midgit is not coming to my team no fucking way.
Thomas had one good season on the celtics because he took a lot of shots.
He does the same shit as westbrook only worse in every statistic. If we're going to trade WB we need something better than IT and a pick.

He's not as good as you celticblobs say. He fluked his way into an allstar with inefficient chucking this year m8.
>>69536251
>>69536324
Wait a second, are you arguing that neither team would want Thomas? You do realise it wouldn't be a 1-for-1 trade, right? At least a pick, and probably another player, would be included.
And the entire premise behind Westbrook/Griffin leaving would basically require any team that does it to tank and rebuild?
>>69536405
(Actually, the Clippers would probably try their best to trundle on, but they would have to know they're not resigning to make the trade)
>>69536405
I'm saying I don't fucking know why they would even want him when the Celtics have so many better things to take.
Westbrook is a superstar, they should take a pick, avery and brown. Not IT.
>be isaiah thomas
>do a lot to help recruit Al gayford
>gets traded
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Man dekker is an awful player lol. Def not nba quality
>>69536429
Can't see the Celtics offering that much.
>>69536429
there is no way a trade happens unless Westbrook demands one or says he is leaving after the season
Ainge is not going to settle for anything less than fleecing, other teams will make better offers
Presti would rather gamble on keeping a top 5 player than getting scraps
L-Lebron is re-signing right?
>>69536478
unless le comic sans man does something really stupid, yes
>>69536455
I assume he's having a bad game, but I strongly disagree based on what I've seen. He'll get minutes this season and be a starter in a couple of years.
>>69536470
I think a trade might happen, is presti still willing to risk getting nothing after Durant walked?
I just think they can definitely get more. A season of westbrook on the celtics is still enticing for the office since he could literally make them a contender overnight with the rest of their roster.

Yeah but everyone is overestimating how much OKC is gutted.
WB didn't sign an extension because even if he tears his ACL, he's getting the max. so he not signing an extension doesn't mean shit. If OKC can hold off and convince him to stay there is no reason to start a rebuilding process and tank because they're already a contender imo.
And despite all I've said about IT I really think he deserves to stay on the Celtics because believe it or not I may actually be wrong with everything I've said and maybe the environment has caused him to have an upward trajectory with his career and a great breakout season.
I think it's bad for everyone. Why rebuild in OKC when it's not 100% confirmed you have to?

>tfw that Westbrook/Hareden/Green/KD/Ibaka team never worked out
And trading Perkins for Green ended up being bad because by that time Perkins had torn his ACL and was a shadow of his former self when in Boston. If it weren't for Perk I truly believe they would have won in 2011 against the Mavs and the newly formed Heat who hadn't figured it out yet.
That lineup alone would make a great small ball team.
>>69538551
That trade was pretty fucked. Perk and Nate were non factors in the playoffs and Nate only plalyed for 6 minutes with no points in the WCF
Green was averaging 20 points in the playoffs.
Literally any Center would've been better than Perk at that time, even a vet minimum player.
>>69538594
And it Perkins stayed in Boston they may not have lost to Miami and LeBron would still be cursed by them and lack the confidence to ever win a championship.
>>69538605
>mfw the Green Perkins trade ended up shifting the balance of the NBA and changing the destiny of today for LeBron, OKC, and Boston

Really makes you think how much impact trades have on the NBA and all the possibilities.
Imagine all the alternate universes where trade deals broke down or certain players didn't get injuries.
So many parallel universes and alternate realities running at the same time but on different courses.
>>69538616
>>69538637
Assuming Perkins was never injured and Green stayed in OKC would OKC really have been able to beat that Mavs team, that Celtics team, or that first year Miami Heatles team?
I'm pretty sure if LeBron choked that hard against the Mavs they'd do the same against Boston. Would OKC have really beat Boston? They were old as fuck then, past their prime and 3 years away from their last championship. I could see another Spurs vs. OKC type of result of them being too young and athletic for the majority old team.
>>69538674
Heat would get smoked by Boston.
OKC vs. Garnett and the boys would have been a GOAT Finals.

Yeah, good thing we got Drake to lead the pack and keep it real.
>>69538605
Perkins was shelved for half a season when he got traded and they were confident that Jermaine O'Neal and Shaq would be enough for the playoffs before both of them blew up their knees and were literally slumping corpses during the postseason.
The final straw was Marquis Daniels getting axed a few weeks before the trade deadline leaving Paul Pierce with no backup hence the deal.
He was useless as Pierce's backup and when the time came when they got shipped to Brooklyn he became even more useless as the go-to scorer.
>>69538711
i keep saying he's the next iman shumpert, but no one believes me or takes me seriously.
>These stats
Damn this was a great series.
Dirk was destroying KD and OKC didn't have as good as a bench as the Mavs. Westbrook had as many offensive rebounds as a center and Harden was actually efficient.

>>69538711
He has a low basketball iq, he takes a lot of bad/contested shots. For all the talk of how smart he is, it doesn't seem like he has a good feel for the game.
Thought it would be a fun idea to go with an all-white team on 2k. Fired up MyLeague fantasy draft, and my second unit is Neto, Heinrich, Bogdanovic, Leonard and Jokic. I've never played with such an unathletic team before. Getting bullied by the other teams that have black players, don't really know how I feel about this.
This guy plays for Kentucky, is going to be the main big man for them next year, is from New Zealand, and John Calipari compared him to Steven Adams in his game, but he's also able to play as a PF.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RA6-rnuYMRU
If he has a good season next year he's likely to enter the draft.

Redpill me on Jimmer Fredette.
They were telling before that he's the next NBA superstar.
Does he lose all his energy by having sex with his hot wife?
>>69538637
Lakers win in 2003 and get a 4-peat. Kobe ends up matching Jordan.
Damn. I guess 5-2 for Mamba isn't bad though.
>>69538959
In summer league he has gotten to the line a lot and players aren't daring him to shoot.
>>69539426
i bet she gets passed around the locker room a lot
>>69539426
he's a mormon idiot
>>69539426
>meme chucker
>meanwhile JJ Redick, Kyle Korver and Gordon Hayward are making millions while he's on a D-League contract
Did he piss someone in the NBA?
>>69539471
>he has gotten to the line a lot and players aren't daring him to shoot.
sounds like he might get into James Hardens kinda game. I've seen D'angelo russell do it and it pisses me off, thats a bad habit to get into where you swing your arms for calls. amateur thing to do.
>>69539471
There are 10 fouls on SL games, on a regular NBA game he'll get squashed and swatted by bigs unless he starts flopping.
>>69539521
he is a bad chucker redick especially uses screens and takes smart shots jimmer most of the time is afraid to shoot or takes bad ones combine that with no minutes and your career is over
>>69539521
>hayward is a meme chucker
Hayward is a white LeBron that can actually shoot. Don't disrespect him like that again by putting his name next to Redick and Korver.
>>69539521
>JJ Redick, Kyle Korver and Gordon Hayward
I could say that those three players are taller than Jimmer probably more athletic.
OKC was an inside job
>>69539601
>Hayward is a white LeBron
Hayward is nowhere near 250 pounds. Good player though. Hope he gets into the all-star next season.
>>69539521
Gordon Hayward is good. He's tall and really athletic for a white guy and just a solid all around basketball player. He's more than just a 3 point shooter.
>>69539676
>white
Sorry, I meant lite - Freudian slip.
>>69539669
you think they wanted KD to leave? Presti looks like one of those guys.
>>69539669
Presti is pretty well known to be biased toawards Westbrook. Maybe they both planned this from the beginning to make it Westbrook team.
During the 2012 Olympics Kobe famously tried to pry apart Westbrook and Kevin Durant asking Westbrook why he doesn't make it his team and why he shares it with Durant? As he say more potential in Westbrook as a alpha male.

>Kobe also made a point of guarding Westbrook during practices and pumping him up, the theory being that he wanted to incite Russ to bump heads with KD over who the team’s best player is. (If you think that’s too conspiratorial to be real, you don’t know Kobe.) KD, in particular, got tired of hearing him
The Black Mamba strikes again.
>KD was too pussy to take some trash talk while Kobe Jr. was just fine.
Really shows you who the weak and the strong are.

>Kobe Bryant didn’t know the young guard’s name in the pickup game that day. He only knew that he would be heading into his freshman season at UCLA and that he was an absolute terror on the court.
>“Who the hell is this kid?” Bryant, the Los Angeles Lakers star, said he wondered.
>The kid was Russell Westbrook, who several years later obviously is much better known now as a star point guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder.
>Westbrook scored 36 points, added 12 rebounds and 7 assists in the Thunder’s 117-113 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday, leading Bryant to reflect on his first encounter with Westbrook and the impression that he made.
>“He was everywhere,” Bryant said. “A relentless competitor. I had never even heard of him. So it was shocking to me sometimes to kind of look at scouts and see what the hell they’re looking at. This guy was this way when he’s 16 years old.”
>Bryant also said he’s not surprised to see how skilled Westbrook has become.
>“Nope, because he cared and competed and guys that compete and it means a lot to them, they’re going to get better no matter what,” Bryant said. “It’s not a surprise to me one bit.”

HINKIE if you see this, make a stawpoll to push the waffle draft later. forget them euros! they run on burger time!!! merica!
Will Lelbron be recognized officially as the first player/coach/gm at his hall of fame induction or will it be a factoid we have to pass down to our children through oral tradition
>>69540222
Did Lebron do his pregame ritual during the finals? Tuned in pretty late for each game.

>Edmondson told police he was hanging out with his girlfriend when Green bumped into him. Edmondson says he told Green, “Hey bro, you can at least say ‘Excuse me.'”
>Green allegedly responded by saying, “Do you know who I am?” … and added, “I pay for n***as like you scholarships.”
>Edmondson says two of Green’s associates then began to choke him out right in the bar. He later noticed that Green’s associates choked his girlfriend as well.
