you never understand my points, ever

its not worth the costs attached for the trade. were the likely 1 seed as it is and swapping Jaylen with Butler does not make us better than Golden State
And you never understand that scared money dont make none

Jimmy would make you guys better. He would defend KD better than anyone you have

You got to try, man. You cant be just fine with a finals appearance. I respect the shit out the teams that arent just packing home “bc gsw are unbeatable”

They are beatable. No team since bill russells celtics have made 5 straight finals. They are due to burn out mentally

If anything i'd try to do Hayward for Butler. Replace Haywards big contract with Butler. Other than that I wouldn't.
 
And I don't think Towns will want out, unless its like he or me type thing.

Getting Jimmy would tremendously increase the Celtics chances of re signing Kyrie

That alone is a big deal

Thats probably true, but I think Butler is more of a dog/killer than Hayward even if Hayward is at his best physically.

And yes that would be the main point. Does Boston want Kyrie? Get it done. Or else him and Butler can run off to any eastern team and be a threat.

Theres no doubt about it

I just dont think Minny would take Hayward, thats why im not even really entertaining it

If they would, for sure gotta do that

Curry>Kyrie Jimmy>Klay (pretty close) Kd>taytum green>hayward boogie>al

I think it would be redundant to trade someone like brown or taytum for butler when they could easily have the potential to be better than Butler long term. I would try to trade for AD before I do butler.

I think if Celtics dont get someone like Jimmy or Kawhi, Kyrie will leave

were adding two All Stars to a team that made it to Game 7 of the ECF; its not like were not talented enough

Jimmy is a great defender, but Jaylen is a great defender in his own. Plus in todays league, teams just switch to create matchups anyways, so it doesnt matter really.

Boston replacing Jaylen with Butler doesnt increase our chances of winning a title, and it just worsens our depth

If youre just going to compare teams to the warriors on paper, theres no point in making any moves

The warriors are beatable when theyre cold, period. Houston almost did it

This game of who is better or worse doesnt always work

Lakers in 2004 had that superteam when they even added Karl and Gary and Pistons took em down as clear underdogs

I remember they were getting crowned as champions before the season even started (same as gsw now)

Anything can happen man, but if teams have this kind of mentality and dont go out and compete, then yea gsw will blow em all out. Gotta go compete
