If the Thunder put him on the market do we risk going all in for a blockbuster trade for him? Knowing he could walk and go somewhere else? Is he risk worth the reward or do you wait and try to and get him in free agency?

Celtics need talent;

"Westbrick" is an MVP-level talent;

Thus, yes, we need "Westbrick" if we can get him. (Though it certainly is always a risk trading for a free agent in a year.)

I don't really like the way he plays.  He plays hero ball.

No one year rental. It would be foolish to do a one year rental when we would still be an underdog. Save the picks and play well this season.

Those picks have too much value to spend on such a risky move, especially when our team is still young, except for Horford who is signed for 4 years anyway.

Hey man, the guy was good in the playoffs. KD was actually the main reason they lost to GS. He had terrible 4th quarters. I love that Westbrook as a little nasty in his game. Fun to root for.

No to all in without an extension agreed to.
