Finally Anthony Davis to the lakers, now they contend and we're middle of the road for the next 5 years

You're seriously going so far out of your way to be negative you sound disillusioned and ridiculous. Also it kinda proves you have a weak argument if you have to straight up make shit up to support your argument. Jaylen obviously wasn't a starter his rookie year, started every game he played his sophomore year and was benched because Morris went crazy/Jaylen injury/Kyrie whining about vets. You either have no clue about basketball or are straight up trolling if you think Brown is a bench player in the NBA. When has Jaylen complained about money, more shit you're just making up? The dude is payed based on his draft position and the Celtics have four or five more seasons of control over him. ( unless you don't understand how RFA works, which honestly wouldn't surprise me ). You just sound like an over emotional child claiming the Celtics are one of the worst teams in the NBA because they're clearly a playoff team still.

The Celtics have two very promising, very young players with many years of control over. Jaylen already proved he could get it done in the playoffs as the first scoring option and was putting up 30 point playoff games until his hamstring injury his sophomore year. Then Tatum stepped up as the first scoring option and was unbelievable for a rookie in the playoffs. Jaylen and Tatum will get better every year for the next four or five years both have very high ceilings. Jaylen Brown is the kid that POPOVICH wanted for Leonard but Ainge didn't want to let him go for Leonard. You think you know more about basketball than GREG POPOVICH? He wasn't trying to get a guy he thought would be a bench player. The Pels also desperately wanted Tatum and preferred a package around him over the massive haul they got back. We have lots of picks to build around these two very coveted players, we have cap space to pair them with D'lo who has interest in coming here if Horford leaves. We can trade those picks for players to pair with them.

Why are you being such a big baby about this. You do realize AD was 100 percent gone after a year and there was zero percent chance of him bringing a championship here. What's the fucking point of doing that deal? So we can lose in 5 in the second round again like last year? Then be way worse of than the New York Knicks are for the next 5-10 years plus? AD here would have been miserable, he would have never bought in and would have been dreaming of playing for the fucking Lakers the whole time. He faked an injury last year, you so sure he wouldn't have done it again to make sure he gets to play with LeBron?

I'll take being a playoff team with a chance to build something for the foreseeable future over having some dude who doesn't want to be here for a season and get bounced in the second round. Hell if shit falls right this years Celtics team could still make it to the second round. Neither team was getting by that round though. Stop being such a baby.
