The Boston Celtics Almost Pulled Off A Massive Deal At The Trade Deadline

[Panic!]

“We were very close,†Ainge said. “I can’t tell you the team or the name, but it was very close. It’s something that we had been deliberating on for two days straight. The other team was doing that. And we were wrapping ourselves around a big package to do a deal. And at the very last minute, they just said they did not want to do it. They just backed out. It was a deal that was talked about, thought about, and that was probably the closest that we came.â€

They said it involved the Nets pick?

Who was it?

Or was he bluffing?

Had to have been Al Horford

And I know your link said they don't think it was Horford or Howard but i def think it was Horford

Yeah I doubt it was Howard, definitely think it was Horford

There has to have been one amazing deal somewhere for Horford because I expected the Hawks to immediately deny and bury the Horford trade rumors and it didn't happen

And he'd have been a perfect fit for that team

Didn't he say the Brooklyn pick was involved? Ainge isn't gonna give up that pick for someone that will be a free agent in the summer

Jahlil Okafor maybe?

 

[Panic!]

Jahlil Okafor maybe?

Maybe Nerlens.

 

[CP3MVP]

It was Okafor

 

[47th oG]

It was Okafor

That's what I think too

Lol a Boston columnist seriously wrote an article hyping up the idea that "It might have been Anthony Davis"

gtfo no it was not
