Props to Hinkie, that's a great deal. Ainge beat Hinkie to the punch in the Cavs deal, now Hinkie returns the favor...
Or maybe Boston wasn't trying? $11 Million would have pushed the Celtics into luxury tax territory.
I think LB33 and GetLucky touched on why we didn't make this deal, and that's that Ainge has bigger fish to fry this summer. Something more impactful to do with the cap space.
I wouldn't get my hopes to high on a major free agent aquisition this summer.
There are so many solid free agent centers and potentially solid centers in the draft, we can do better than McGee and should not settle.
