horford/hayward/rozier isn't exactly the start trio i was expecting. Think none of these losses will hurt Boston. Prolly better in the longrun saving that cash
Harkless turned down more $ to go there and contend, hoping to cash in next year. I assume same is with Bradley.
Kyrie? Kyrie and Hayward definitely had writing on the wall. They could have gotten value for both. Horford was more of a surprise, but I count it because of Ainge's arrogance. He reportedly expected Al to take less money to return.
That and Bradley isn't the true pg everyone says our bench needs. He's a little SG. Do we want to sign him and take away minutes from Trent?
Bradley isn’t what he used to be. Although still a rotation-able player, the injuries have taken a toll.
I've lost track a little as far as I can tell, this is the current roster: Damian Lillard CJ McCollum Jusuf Nurkić Rodney Hood Zach Collins Anfernee Simons Nassir Little Gary Trent Robert Covington Enes Kanter Derrick Jones CJ Elleby that's 12 players if complete to this point. Do I have that right? That leaves 2 or 3 players to add IMO there is a real hole at PF, and a giant void of guys who can facilitate offense. Neither CJ or Simons are PG's, and while they were generally bad offensive players, at least the Blazers had ET and Hezonja to fill in that void the last 4 seasons hopefully, Olshey will address those issues with his remaining signings rather than bringing back Melo (please no), Gabriel, and Hoard
Looks like a 3 year full midlevel for Crowder. Wonder if we didn't pursue him because of that third year. 2 years from now will be the critical year where Dame + CJ's extensions kick in, and Nurk, Covington are due for new contracts.
