    Portland was almost named Boston due to a coin toss, but the other choice won. This is obviously a roundabout way of saying they're coming back here!

    if they were crazy they'd be talking about the little known scrub FAs the Celts are likely to sign instead of the ones their fans dream about. My favorite part of the article was saying that LA would be interested in becoming a Celtic because he would want to go deep into the playoffs...

    35% chance of signing Aldridge? 75% chance of signing Matthews?

    Yeah, they're high.

    Bill Simmons syndrome.

    The Celtics are terrible. But everyone wants to flock there because of brad Stevens! Right? Right?

    Give me a break

    Yea its just Celtics homers talking about how they have such a good situation so why wouldn't you want to play on the Celtics. It has as much knowledge and facts as if you put Mags and I on a show and asked us to talk about who we would want to play on the Blazers and why they should choose the Blazers, itd just be a rose colored glasses fest.

    They already have way too many guards, and they got there lockdown defender in Avery Bradley... I don't think he fits.

    Boston is actually pretty legit and young with a great coach.

    The Celtics would definitely be his team and the are in a big city. If they can't get Aldridge I could see them getting Love.

    Danny Ainge is just using his pals from South High School in Eugene to avoid tampering

    The Blazers are definitely Aldridge and Matthews team right now. The fans absolutely love both of them, plus management is all in as well.

    Love in Boston--paired with Olynyk--would actually be pretty interesting.
