Anyone interested in Whiteside?  If so, think we have a chance?

Danny likes smart player .  He is a dummy.

I just don't think DA will give the paycheck other teams would.

Some stupid team will max him.

I'd say there is zero chance DA would pay anything close to what he lol demand .  Whiteside is after money .   He lol go to the highest bidder.

I don't think Whitside is the type of person to be loyal or give up money to win a ring.

I dunno he has tolerated at guy at C for the past two years that ate himself out of shape and into a foot injury.   That does not sound smart to me....

How could he be worse than Sully at Center?   He would not be.   There are parts of his game that concern me.   I hope he goes to LA.  I rather get a guy like  Ian Mahinmi.   He would be cheaper, plays D and does not need the ball.

Ainge was interested in Javale McGee and drafted Melo.

There was a rumor that the Celtics attempted to trade for Whiteside at the deadline, but the Heat wanted this year Nets pick. In addition, Steve Kyler has said that the Cs are targeting Whiteside this summer.

Whiteside is a very unintelligent player, has a poor attitude, is a poor defender, and is going to cost a fortune. I can't imagine how disinterested he'll be once he gets a max deal.  I really hope the Celtics are smart enough to steer clear of that dude.

Lakers reportedly are targeting him in free agency. He reportedly wants to stay in Miami. I'd rather we try to sign Bismark. Should be more affordable.

Whiteside said something along the lines of "loyalty isn't important to me" when asked about FA.

Also, make what you will of this quote: "I'm a businessman who plays basketball"
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
