fuck yeah..I was really impressed with his defense, he had like 4 steals he had a sick up and under move. hes got some strength for a skinny guy..that long frame . 5 steals means hes an active player on defense. I am impressed.
Na he's the truth and would have worked perfectly with Brooklyn
Fultz is out of shape a little bit.
Tatum... He killed it tonight. Jumper was on.

Amazing thing about Fultz is 3 years ago kid was playing JV...
I will say this, I kinda see why Boston took Tatum over Jackson though. Jackson may end up being nice, but Tatum has the tools to become a huge problem offensively...
Yea I see why they did too; Fultz must really work on his game alot for him to improve like that; thats a good sign for the sixers; I like him; I hope Embed stays healthy alsoAmazing thing about Fultz is 3 years ago kid was playing JV...

Yep, and I have no doubt he will. The work ethic to go from JV to the #1 Pick in the draft speaks volumes of about his mentality towards improving!

MLB has no cap bruh......if you don't mind paying a luxury tax you can sign whoever you want. NBA has a salary cap and a luxury tax.
Durant signed a one year deal for a reason........far too early to tell why.
im 1 year at a time but as of now it's to keep the team together then sign a long term deal as always it's wait and see.
He did a good job going to the hole at the end though. Brown just made a better play. I'm sure he was winded at the end. Tatum said he was.
yeah.....dude is legit.....Tatum out there looking solid. Dude has good control. Ainge may have gotten one here.
and just think.....Boston may get the first pick again next year.....lol
There all out of game shape. Remember he hasn't played a game since early March. It's July. Game shape and regular in shape are two different things.
We'll see about that. But that deal set them up nicely. Just building through the draft. They'll be ready in a couple/ few seasons.
You are absolutely right they dont; but like I said most teams are no where near the luxury tax; and most teams will never go no where near the tax; its there to create a pseudo salary cap; NBA players are getting paid....
"Back in December, when MLB and the MLBPA agreed to the new collective bargaining agreement, the luxury tax system was overhauled to include much harsher penalties. Under the old CBA the maximum teams could be taxed was 50 percent for every dollar over the annual threshold. Now the maximum tax rate is 92 percent under certain conditions.
The new luxury tax penalties are so steep they effectively serve as a salary cap. The vast majority of teams are nowhere near the luxury tax threshold, which is $195 million in 2017."
and baseball players salaries are not higher than nba players:
"USA TODAY Sports' annual salary survey shows the average major leaguer will make $4.47 million in 2017. That's still a record - but just a 1.6% increase over the $4.4 million mark last year. And that's the smallest bump since the last salary decrease - from $2.5 million in 2003 to $2.4 million in 2004, a 3% drop."
"Thanks to a salary cap that is skyrocketing due to soaring television revenue, NBA teams shot up the list this year. Of the 25 highest-paid teams in the world, 18 are from the NBA, and overall, the average NBA player makes $6.4 million, tops in the world."
Again the tax in baseball is 195 million;

Yep, there are the Dodgers yet again at the top spot. It’s also worth noting that they top the average 2017 payroll of $137,746,636 by more than $100,000,000. So they’re on another level, even relative to the other well-heeled power teams. To put a finer point on it, Clayton Kershaw’s salary for 2017 -- $33 million -- is more than what the Padres are paying the 25 players on their active roster ($29,628,400). Yes, the Pads’ overall payroll is significantly higher than that, but that’s mostly because of all the money they’re paying players on other teams.
Nah they can't get the first pick. 1st pick is protected so if the Lakers get it it goes to the Sixers. In that case the Celtics take the Kings pick in 2019. Pick has to be between 2,3,4,5 for the Celtics to get it.
He signed the deal so that GS can get his bird rights; once they get that then he will cash out; its a wink wink deal!!
Youre on a roll tonight my G!There all out of game shape. Remember he hasn't played a game since early March. It's July. Game shape and regular in shape are two different things.
Smh.....
Im not even a Durant fan. And I get all the early bird stuff. But seeing some of these other guys higher than him on the list is aggravating.
Imho, Blake is gonna show he's not worth what he's getting, now that CP3 aint there.
imma just logg off
I feel ya; but you cant compare other teams dumb decisions though; GS is in the position they are in now because they have made very smart decisions; from ownership on down to players; most NBA teams though make dumb decisions and continue to make them...
True. Built a dynasty through the draft and capped it off with free agency. Best way to do it.

100% money!!!!

Absolutely but like you said they are all out of game shape. It showed for him more then the others. I wasnt really criticizing him though. He still had a good game.
We will not be the worst team next year.
Hes not leaving GS; and LBJ is certainly leaving Cavs....
Hawks, Pacers, Knicks if they trade Melo. Kings going get killed out west. Bulls depending on how much Wade plays or if he takes a buyout midseason
If I'm the Celtics I stand pat and just let these youn go players develop. Trying to trade everything for Paul George and Jimmy Butler.....man let them cats develop.
Ooooooooohhhhhh, Cold you ment THAT pick. Oh those Brooklyn Nets.
Only pick I'm mad we didn't get is Tatum. James Young is trash and jury still out on Brown. Tatum will be a stud
