1. Yeah that kinda sucks for us lol. Porzingis is a great fit for them.

2. As much as I don’t want to see them get him.. Are we just posting any NBA news here now?

3. Ngl tingus pingus fits pretty perfect w them

4. Damn.

   We’re gonna need so much luck 😭😭

5. Yeah go ahead and pay Porzingis 30m per year along with Jaylen Browns 60m and whatever Tatum makes. If they get porzingis, Brown is probably traded?

6. He’s gonna block embiid and than embiid will get frustrated and put his head down the whole game .

7. Big Al going to DC

8. Damn.

9. Why can’t we get him

10. I would delude myself out of this if we traded Tobias for Tingus but it’s a total crapshoot if he ends up giving them any healthy playoff minutes. On paper it’s a really good fit though.

11. Giving up Brogdon and “draft compensation” is worth it for them to take a chance on him having a great year in a contract year. They do have a lot of combos they can use on that frontcourt now.

12. Doesn’t move the needle. Kristaps has spent his entire career being great in theory. It is great for Boston on paper, for sure but the Celtics need a true PG.

13. Meanwhile we’re sitting here thinking about what bench players we can trade Tobiass for

14. Sheesh. Porzingis should be a big upgrade. Fuck this

15. if it means that they get rid of brogdon, I’m ok because I feel like Brogdon is a Sixers terrorist. Dude didn’t miss in our series

16. Why can’t we ever just have the edge

17. They gonna move Horford / Williams? Don’t see how all 3 fit

18. Wow add his size and skill forget it..,

19. I still remember the rumors that henkie wanted zingus, but was pressured by the owners to take okafor that year.

20. Outside of dumping Simmons for Harden Morey’s tenure has been extremely mediocre.

    Not a single standout move and many firsts given up without meaningfully moving the needle.

21. Great now they’re gonna put porzingis and Horford out there at the same time and Joel’s legs are going to fall off

22. Just not buying that washed Porzingis and losing brogdon puts this team into some kind of new tier

23. If Horford is gone I honestly feel a lot better than just playing vs a hurt Porzingis in the playoffs

24. Icing on the cake in addition to being stuck in a meeting for an hour after my shift was supposed to end, what a shitty day…

25. Will Marcus Morris be a buyout candidate for Washington and do we want him to come home on a vet min?

26. We will never win a anything man

27. Welp Sam Cassell gonna be Celtics head coach by mid-season when Mazzula can’t keep KP in line.

28. he’ll become a 60% 3 point shooter without a doubt

29. And we’re worrying about shake Milton? Just blow the team up

30. I can still hear Rapaport yelling “who the hell is Tingus Pingus!”
