Any George Hill love these days?  Looks pretty good.

The issue was NEVER George Hill. 

It was George Hill for 20 Million.

Have no idea how Dinwiddie factors into any conversation here

You haven't been keeping up with BoD's thread?

At least we don't hear about the generational player that Lonzo Ball is quite as much anymore.

kid's still pissed he got his collection of Lonzo Big Baller sneakers just in Laker colors

I loved Tatum predraft.  Excellent player.  Stop misrepresenting.

Kid you're the only one misrepresenting.

You were anti-Tatum for the first half of his rookie year, and killed Ainge for the trade.

Then you STFU as it became obvious he was a special talent, and Ainge pantsed the 76ers.

He's got nothing but better, but he has an off-shooting night, and you resume your ill-conceived and stupid attack.

SSDD

 

I was antitrade. And anti-Tatum only in reference to how the Celts could/should have proceeded

Have always been pro Tatum as an NBA talent.  Touted him big pre draft.  Just not number 1.   I will leave it up to you to judge his award worthiness moving forward.  That's not my bag unless I think someone got royally screwed

kid you can't correct anyone on this subject,a subject that you have been consistently wrong about for the past 3 years."

And kid you have not been a Tatum fan on this board. Most of us here read your posts. Others wisely are more judicious with their time.

so stop bullshitting.

But given your newly admitted admiration of the Celtic-star, please explain your post several mnutes ago, critcizing Tatum for having a "down year". As I noted his points, boards assists have all risen every year for the past 3 years.

The facts seem to contradict your analysis.

Heh

I don't remember the value Phil attached to Hill at the time

Could have used him

Payton looking like a keeper.  Challenged as a shooter, but a solid rudder. 


Our challenged shooter is shooting better than our other guards.

Which is a problem. We need somebody else.

I don't have any obvious trades that will help us, but what about the un-obvious ones? Doesn't anyone in the organization have an eye for emerging talent?

Perhaps we can make a deal for Lonzo Ball. 

.378 FG%

.338 3PT%

.500 FT%

5.3 assists

4.8 rebounds

Elfrid?

.393 FG%

.348 3PT%

.688 FT%

5.9 Assists

3.5 rebounds

Or perhaps not. 

On July 10, 2017, Hill signed a three-year deal worth a reported $57 million with the Sacramento Kings.

Tatum sort of Wiggins-like

Celts will likely make same decision on big dollars that Minny made

Lonzo will be a free agent soon enough

Ball/Ball backcourt in NY.  Sign me up.  But I would likely take a different player in 2020 draft.  Not Lamelo.

kid can't back-up his hot take on Tatum's "down year peaked" when he is challenged, so he changes the subject.

SSDD

and yes the Celts will max out Tatum to a 4/125 or whatever next year.

You are actually right.  I thought Tatum's low shooting % had his PER down.  Seems it is above first 2 years - and shot way up to 18.

Still... 42 per cent not what you are after

See that wasn't hard admitting that you were wrong.

and Tatum will be pleased to know that he's not over the hill at 21 and still has some time to save his career.
