ESPN is now saying the Cavs might give him what's left of their MLE (a lot).

So, it seems like the consensus is that we'd rather have Smith than Moore. But herein lies the conundrum - Moore is available now and Smith might not ever be available. Do we take a chance waiting on Smith or do we snatch up Moore right now?

My gut says if Ainge were to snatch up Moore it would be an indication that we're desperate (i.e., Ainge believes that Baby and Powe aren't enough). If we pass on Moore and wait for Smith, you may just get the homerun with Smith, but you also send a message to Baby and Powe that says "Hey, we have confidence in you and we need you to win, but Joe Smith is a veteran that can really help round out the rotation."

Personally, I say wait for Smith. One thought - could we grab Moore now and then waive him (probably eating some money in the process) if Smith becomes available?

Cleveland will outbid us for either Moore or Smith, likely Smith, and we will be left with second choice. Face facts.

Moore is pretty athletic, and quick for the 5/4 spot. He would be great at trapping off the picks as well as rotating in our defense.
I'm happy with him and Starbury but happier with Starbury and Joe Smith

It is a fact that Cleveland has the MLE, and we don't.  It is also a fact that nearly every player, if given the choice between two teams with pretty equal chances of winning it all, will go every time with the team willing to give them more money.  Those are the facts we must face, my friend.

I would agree with you but I think with the new Celtics swagger that KG has brought back there may be more of a lure to these vet guys.  I hope at least.

Not only have you confused facts with predictions, but you have omitted a significant (IMO) component that actually IS a fact - Joe Smith's relationship with KG. I don't think it would be a stretch to think that that friendship could convince Smith to take less money to come to Boston. Joe Smith seems like he'd really fit in well with the C's off the court - hanging out with the big three and stuff. I just don't see where he's fits in (off the court) with the Cavs. I just think the pull of being around people you're comfortable with (and having a great shot at a title) is stronger than the pull to make some extra cash (and also having a nice chance to win a title) - maybe that's just me.

She's hot and she's a good actor. She also has that girl next door appeal about her. She has never put out a good song but o well she's still hot.

Moore does stink. He had one good season.
