Smartest business statement Smart could make.  If you didn’t like “back up the Brink’s Truck” you shouldn’t like this.   I don’t like it, but I can’t blame him for it.  Danny knows his limit and I trust him.  If Danny isn’t willing to go high, I hope he can pull off an S&T.   If nothing else, Cs need some tradeable salary if they want to be in the mix for Leonard, Davis, Towns...
Smart brings the brick truck.

Lol, TP ;D. They should put this on the jumbotron whenever he checks into the game ahahaha ;D -

Marcus Smart: Celtics are "already planning for me to be here."

Doesn't Marcus know by now....not to trust Danny??

In a month or two..
Smart: Danny I took a little paycut (12.5 million per year) so i can stay. Glad it all worked out
Danny: Marcus you just been just traded.  You will get a chance to start there

Smart: Danny you snake!
Danny: We will miss you too!  ;D

A very good role player who is not a starter on this team, but is a cog. I would not go over $10 million a year.

If Smart gets that kind of an offer I let him walk and don't think twice about it.

But I don't think Smart is going to get an offer like that, and I think he knows it.  This is probably just his way of trying to create a market that doesn't exist.

I almost feel like he would become a better player if he leaves compared to staying, as if maybe he’s too comfortable here and if we don’t match that would be the motivation he needs to become reliable beyond the arc.

I sincerely hope they all learned from this season, the good and the bad. Use it for motivation and it will make winning the championship next season all the more sweeter.

Hayward and Irving know this was a golden opportunity and they will be ready to start the season and more determined than ever.

There’s no way the spurs are looking for a starting backcourt of Marcus Smart and Dejounte Murray.

I think Danny would match a 3 year, $40mil offer.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

I honestly don't think Smart is in the future picture anymore.
Danny and Brad obviously shift to SIZE type of play.
Irving is the exception because he's just the best handler in the planet and a proven scorer.
Other than that, the team will be 6'7 to 7ft switchable big that can run the floor defend perimeter shoot 3s and can post in the paint or make layups. That's the recipe to win a title nowadays.
Smart is just not good enough in offense.
If Danny takes a small combo/guard, it will be for bench scoring or very small ball transition oriented BB (like what Spurs have with Mills e.g.)
Unless it's below 10mil a year, I think Smart is gone. Same as Rozier after next season probably.
