Core should be IT, AB, Crowder, Smart , top 5 pick, 2 max free agents .

Of course any of IT,AB,Crowder Smart can be traded for the right return, but they fit in much better around 2 other max players , and a top 5 pick .

Sully is a fat disgrace
Turner is just to up and down , can't shoot .
Zeller is as soft as they come .

KO might be on this list to if he can't play through pain . Brad even said yesterday that unless KO's arm is falling off, he should be out there playing through pain

I think they're going to pay Turner and it's the right move.  Sully and Zeller have 2 more games left in a Celtics jersey.

Turner can stay. We need guys who can score and he can do that.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

No way they are paying turner if they have the chance to acquire 2 legit max free agents either through trade of FA

KO is killing me right now. Thought he'd have a good series. Team just played lethargic. Scrappiness vanished. Amir played hard.

Agree on Sully & Zeller but not Turner.  We definitely should re-sign him.  He was one of the few guys who played well tonight too.

his game is very predictable and limited , why tie up money in Turner long term, he is a 7th/ 8th man on a contender .

So you pay him like a 7th, 8th man. If he get better offers he can go.

I think Crowder is the only keeper based on the idea if you bring in another SF they could play together. IT, AB and Smart should all be trade bait to upgrade.

I'm good with KO.

Sully, Zeller, and Turner, yeah, upgrade those spots or just let them go and allow young players to audition for a bigger role.

I think he's very dependable and versatile.  He can play the point, small forward and shooting guard.  If it's not crazy money then he gets re-signed.  If someone throws $10mm at him he goes. 

BTW...he was voted 5th in 6th man of the year voting so he's recognized around the league for his ability.

If we can't sign two max free agents (which is what I expect), then I think that changes what our plan is.

I think Turner should be back unless we can sign those two free agents you mentioned. I could even see Sullinger coming back on a one year deal with a team option for next year.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Sullinger is such a frustrating case. You would think that playing for a contract he would have a career year highlighted by an improvement in body recomposition. Instead, we've seen him become heavier and less mobile as the season has gone on. So rare for a player who receives considerable playing time, a starter no less, to get in worse shape throughout the year. He literally has no lift and has become more of a liability defending on the perimeter. You have to think he's cost himself millions and teams have to be petrified on what he'll look like after he gets a payday and as he gets older and his metabolic rate worsens.

The thing with Turner is that he really can't play with Amir, Zeller, Smart, and Sully because they get no spacing.  Especially if Crowder is stinking it up like he has been from the three point line.  The paint is just too clogged.

Now if we can put shooters out there with him at the four and five, it makes up for his lack of being a 3pt threat, and he has some room to work with.

The Celtics are going to sign him for 4 years at more than $10 mil a year.  His ability to score in the half court shooting something other an the 3 is a valuable skill that they won't let walk.  Plus he's entering his prime.
