Ouch! Looks like Durant will be leaned on even more heavily.
6 more days til Media Day, 14 til first preseason game…⏰
Thanks JK ☘️🔒
Trade Jaylen…you fools just dont get it
Isn’t there some type of injury clause/exception in which you can replace an injured player?
Al Horford 40+ 😊…but Jaylen wont age like that
We are under the second apron why the faq would they trade Simon’s for an injured vanvleet
Simons for Vanvleet + Eason would be nice
Giving more leeway on technical fouls is at the top of the bad idea list. They need to clamp down even more
I don’t root for anyone’s injury but as a big fan of JD, I think this might actually open up minutes for him and I think he really fits into that athletic system. If he gets playing time and has a breakout season, I will be furious. Because we all know Simon is a rental. We pretty much got rid of JD because we weren’t going to have minutes for him. Once We could not get ridof Simon. At least that is what I think it is. Unless they really didn’t think he could play in the NBA which I think is silly. I think this was the first year. He actually had the bodyweight to play NBA minutes. But I digress and I hope he succeeds.
JD Davison breakout year coming?
Honestly, I don’t think this will affect us in anyway right now. I honestly just hope a former Celtic playing time and that’s JD. The kid deserves it. He’s his body shooting from three harder shots and more attempts. He is an athletic freak and assist machine his first few years in the g. Play The kid someone.
I didn’t think about Simon‘s at all. He makes so much money man it’s gonna be so hard to trade him for something of value
disrespecting Al Horford saying only players like LeBron get to 40!!!
They can sign JD davison
