Cavs are either doing anything they can to convince LeBron to stay, or preparing for his exit and starting a rebuild.

Celtics are WILD for giving up everything they did

They can add Kyrie to the all time Cavs teams.

Celtics probably did give up too much, but they were in limbo with all those draft picks and other pieces. They had so many great role players but never a legitimate superstar to carry them all the way.

They didn't want to end up like the Atlanta Hawks, who were good for the last 10 years, but never a serious threat. Even in '15, nobody considered them a threat to Cleveland or G.S.

How was Isaiah Thomas not a superstar? 29 PPG, 6 APG with a great FG%, 3P% and FT% and also a defensive rating of 108 which is A LOT better than people make it seem

I don't care about numbers, I base it off the eye test. I could see that the Celtics never had a shot at beating a Lebron Team in the playoffs as long as he was the focal point of the team. They most likely lose to a healthy Bulls team and barely got past the Wizards.

I'm just saying that short term, Celtics are better equipped to win NOW. Yea they damaged their future a little, but if you keep playing conservative and don't take risks, it's highly unlikely you will accomplish the main goal of a championship at all.

DAMN. Koby Altman just won executive of the year. I thought Danny Ainge would cash in that 2018 Nets pick on a superstar, but not Irving -- not Kyrie.

Kyrie doesn't seem worth Thomas, Crowder, and Zizic. Just ... wow.

Totally gobsmacked.
