Tatum + a #1 for Fultz was not just a steal by Ainge. More like armed robbery with intent and deceit. Even Chico knows that, but he seems to just enjoy arguing with Bank.


Thanks for checking in

I wasnt taking Fultz.  But I like how he is coming along.

To further analyze that draft, Philly staying at 3 made more sense unless they were taking Tatum or Jackson.  They had Simmons already

2 scoring guards I guess is what they were after.  But neither was a sniper.  Poor building, I'd say.  But they seem to have survived

heh

kid's analyzing that draft 3 years after the fact and uncovering truths that most figured out 3 years ago.

TFF

awesome analysis.

bottom line moron

if the 76ers should have stayed at #3, then perhaps they made a mistake by giving up a lottery pick to to their division rival to get Fultz, the shooting guard who couldn't and wouldn't shoot,

have mom change your diaper so it will stay with you for a little longer than usual.

Other thought is Philly thought Fultz was a whirlwind

And werent wowed by Jackson or Tatum

They were 1 for 2 on that last one

Its unfortunate that kid changes his stories more often than his mom changes his diapers.

They also got Kemba, which you seem to forget was the point of trading Baynes.


Not expressly at the time

Horford and Rozier were still in play

And there were other avenues.

If you're happy, that is what matters.  I think Horford is a key loss.  Seen in Tatum's usage being too great for my taste.

kid you can throw out as many names as you like, and propose that there weere several braod boulevards that Ainge could traverse, but the point of trading Baynes was to create cap space for a max contract for a new PG.

Your theory, much like your diaper, that Ainge did this for no reason, doesn't hold water.

And yes, losing Horford was the real loss. He would have fit so well with this team.

And yes I'm mostly content.

Not expressly or solely, according to my earlier research

I didnt say he did it for no reason.  I dont happen to think Baynes was that good.  It's Horford that is the key loss.

You indicated that Celts got nothing for Baynes.

As posted several times they got the needed cap space to get Kemba.

What you think about Baynes is pretty much irrelevant.

But it was clear you had no idea what the trade was about.

I would think had Horford re-upped Celts might have added a Payton type to their squad.

this board's favorite Celtic had 17 and 12 in a win the the Windy City.

Tatum was 12 for 15 shooting including 2 for 4 in 3s with 28 points 7 boards.
