Seems like $20 million a year is a high price tag for a guy coming off the bench. I don’t think you can play them together for long because that would give Boston a small lineup forcing Tatum to play the 4 spot. Not the greatest idea when you have Giannis and others at that position. Still I liked Brogdon and think he’s a fine player who’s going to do well in Beantown. I personally wished the Bucks kept him instead of Bledsoe, one of the dumbest acquisitions of all time imo.

Winning a championship is expensive!

Talk of Durant is finally over. He is staying with the Nets.

Time to focus on game plan and chemistry with the roster we've got!

GAAAHHHH... Coach Ime Udoka probably suspended for the 22-23 season for a relationship within the organization that violated team policy.

Yup, got caught banging some chick in the org...as a married man (to Nia Long! brothas of a certain age know). SMH. Come on dude. I dont see how he comes back to coach for Boston again. Too much bad PR at this point. I suspect a buyout is coming. Amazing how he effed up. He had a really good thing going in Beantown. A young talented squad that could compete for titles for at least the next 5 years at least. Backed up by ownership and GM that were ready to do what it took to stay competitive. Damn Udoka.

I feel bad for Celtics fans. He seemed to have a good command of the team. But I don't feel bad for him. What a dumb move.

Maybe this takes some pressure off the players to rack up W’s for the first half of the season, so they can peak at the right time (I can hope).

At least they won't be thinking about the Durant trade anymore.

Matt Barnes found Ime Udoka scandal 100-times uglier than he thought.

A crazy off-season with the Celtics where they were only 2 games away from a championship & had everyone returning this season.

First, they get even better by adding Brogdon & didn't have to give up much at all. But they also run the risk of upsetting Smart by taking away his minutes. Then they likely upset Jaylen Brown, who already felt under appreciated by the team, by trying to trade him to the Nets.

Then they lose Gallinari for the season due to an ACL tear. Robert Williams has a somewhat complicated knee surgery where they initially said he'd be out 4-6 weeks, but now updated it to 8-12 weeks. Their coach is out for the season due to consensual sex but Matt Barnes completely did a 180 degree turn when he heard more of the details, which the Celtics are trying to keep hush hush.
