Makes the Celts better and takes them out of the Melo "fall-back" option....Double whammy! I hate the Celts but wanted one of those picks...

Booo....I was rooting for Celts to swing and miss. I guess Hill leaving Utah was tip-off for what Hayward was going to do. Maybe this starts the dominoes affecting a Melo deal (not to the Celts but elsewhere).

I think it does but there is one less suitor.

Yeah, that's why I was hoping the Celts missed on Hayward. The pressure would've been on Ainge to do something.

Puts pressure on Cavs to do something. But they may just wait it out since Lebron might not even resign.

It's not just the 1st round picks either they have some 2nd rd picks that could blossom into something too.

How bizarre. If he does go to the Celtics they either have to do a sign and trade or clear some cap space, in which case I'd happily take on some of their players

When a team really wants you, you can say, "Im good, but you gotta get me that 5th year!!!"

For some reason I do root for these guys to stay. Sometimes its the wife that says "Get the puck out of here!!!".
Love to Utah? THats a good idea!!!!! What can Utah give us?
Rubio?

I would be shocked if he doesn't sign with the Celts...I'm wondering if the news got out faster than it was supposed to...Maybe Hayward didn't get a chance notify certain people and it got out....In the end, I think he goes to the celts...I would love it if he sh$ts on the Celts and goes back to Utah

Man they gave Lowery 33+ per year. He isn't even a young player.

Celtics need Love to complete this. Now is the time for the Knicks to strike a deal involving Cavs and Celtics. Even if they add Melo it might work for them.
