David West close to deal with Celtics

[DJT]

haha

That actually took me a second...I was like...no captains??? lol

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Lmao at you thinking you'll get picks or Jeff Green

That's what was first discussed.

 

[elcheato]

Instead, the Celtics signed Jeff Green for 9 mill, and they have to pay 9 mill on taxes for signing him. 18 million dollar back up SF, legit.

Sources tell ESPN that Pacers making progress toward two-year, $20M deal with David West thanks to West's stalled sign-and-trade to Boston

 

[RipCity32]

Celtics must be trying hard for Paul for them to stall on this deal like that.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Unless the Celtics deal falls through, I cant see West accepting the Pacers offer... he has said he wants a place where he can win... Indiana cant offer that

So unless the Lakers or someone comes in with an offer, Boston seems like his best bet.

 

[RipCity32]

Indiana is a playoff team. On the rise and young.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Indiana didnt have a winning record either.

 

[RipCity32]

I think it is safe to say they will this year. Especially with West and potentially Mayo as rumored.

Do you really think thats a lineup of a team that can beat Miami, New York, Chicago, or Boston? lol

 

[RipCity32]

Sure as hell give them a run.

IDK why you think the old ass Celtics would be that much better, if at all.

 

[elcheato]

David Aldrdige says the sign and trade with the Celtics is completely dead.

that lineup can beat new york, beat boston, and hang with chicago and miami but i wouldnt say win in a seven game series.

The Grizzlies and Pacers have returned to Josh McRoberts for O.J. Mayo trade talks, according to sources.

The two were involved in a multi-team trade at last February's deadline that didn't go through.

McRoberts is a free agent and the trade would need to be a sign-and-trade.

man if the pacers get o.j. they got a nice little squad there

 

[Hurricane Season]

If all it takes to get OJ is Josh McRoberts, and the Bulls can't provide a better package than that, I'll be furious.

 

[Pugz]

i posted this in the wrong david west thread lol. but yea, if the bulls cant top that then LOL
