Call me crazy but I’d put up with any number of dumb threads for a 3-0 lead on LeBron in the ECF. Put me in the wacky wagon but I like Finals appearances.

We need Hayward to guard Kevin Durant.
Kyrie is Steph Curry's daddy as 2016 finals demonstrated.

Now the Celtics just need to work on Klay Thompson and Draymond Green and they are set.

I really don't think that that would end well for us, lol.

Didn't he do a solid job guarding Kevin Durant last year when the Jazz came into town

or was that on Klay Thompson.

I believe (happy to stand corrected) that Hayward was on Klay, and Ingles was on Durant for the most part. Klay averaged less than 15ppg, so if Hayward was on him that's pretty decent.

Dumb threads are always there, the chance to beat LBJ in a series hasn't happened since 2012. Actual victory since 2010, so yeah definitely wanted the win on Saturday, though I'll be happy if the C's get game 4 as well.

These trade ideas are beyond crazy and feel like trolls to me. We are in the ECF yet we are trying to figure out how to trade a top 10 player and one that got injured in his first game- yeah, brilliant. Lets make sure nobody ever wants to sign a free agent deal with Boston again.

We need Kyrie and Hayward to go head to head with Curry and Durant or Harden and Paul in a finals matchup if we have dreams of multiple titles. Brown and Tatum will get to that level eventually but right now, we cannot count on them night in and night out(soon, but not yet).

We have the perfect team assembled minus a true center. One that can shoot the lights out from multiple sources, 3 proven superstars in Kyrie and Hayward with Horford on the fringes that can take over a game at the end in addition to 2 future superstars in Tatum and Brown who will destroy you when focussed on Kyrie or Hayward or Horford- Oh, we also play killer defense and as a team.

We have a team that plays defense and bringing in Towns will have a similar net effect on defense as another center we just brought in- No Thank You- Ayton will not take over a game in the finals in 19 or 20 either- No thank you, no thank you, no thank you

I guess the trade ideas are irritating me most :)
