Hearing that Dwight Howard is leaning toward either Boston or Atlanta. Doesn't look like anybody else is left in the picture.

We need Saltlover's assistance to assess the possibility of this... You out there, big guy?

I'm a dad!!!  The world's newest Celtic fan just came home from the hospital!

So I can't explain it all to you, but I did talk about this a little a few days ago in a fanpost on the front page:

Mazel tov, SL! What's L'il Salty's name? Please don't say it's L'il Salty.

Bill Russell Saltlover

Nah, he'll be named Larry Coon Jr. after his father

Haha, thanks Jim and everyone else.  It's a girl.  I tried to convince my wife that Bradley was an acceptable girls name, and then offered Stephanie, both in honor of our coach.  But no dice.

The little one and I have found a nice arrangement in which she sleeps on my chest as I post on my phone.  Although I am sleep deprived, so I apologize in advance for any errors I make during the next few days years.

Fixed ;D, and congratulations, man - TP! :)

So apparently we have until July 7th to decide on JJ and AJ now?? Was that a negotiation with their agents or something?

That would be excellent! It gives us enough time to learn about Durant and Horford before deciding on Amir and Jerebko.

Sources on @TheVertical. Dallas Mavericks emerging as a frontrunner for Miami free agent center Hassan Whiteside. Heat's lost ground on him.

I have to imagine Miami doesn't look nearly as appealing to KD now, right?

(Or, what if we are seeing another DeAndre saga haha)
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

How does any team gain or lose ground yet? This is like basically admitting that there has been tampering going on.

Whiteside's focus is centered on those two teams?  Well done, Woj, well done, lol ;D.

 the Celtics want to talk to both Kevin Durant, and Al Horford on the phone.

They looking to do a conference call with them?

I think Cuban would eat the fine. The Mavs tried to play by the rules last year and got screwed (Jordan), so they're taking no chances this year, it seems.

On twitter, that's good for a person, but horrible for a source.  I wouldn't put too much any stock into it
I'm bitter.
