How good of a GM is Danny Ainge?

[AirBonner]

He is just chilling sitting back with his feet up and has the Pelicans begging to trade with him. Meanwhile Magic threw everything but the kitchen sink to get a deal done and still failed. :oldlol:

In Danny we trust :bowdown:

[PP34Deuce]

Danny has been great last 4 years. Before that he was very rocky.

I think the main thing is he learns from it.

Hes still obsessed with drafting combo guards though

[dbugz]

^NO will be forced to make a trade with Ainge now this summer because they gonna look really bad for snobbing magic and his "all in" offer. :oldlol:

And short, fat power forwards. Glen Davis, Sullinger, Yabusele etc.

[ImKobe]

Boston ain't giving up no damn Tatum if AD isn't willing to play there long term.

This idiot is asking him to basically confirm a deal 5 months ahead of time, how ****ing stupid is Demps really?

Dont forget about Michael sweeney.

[Celtics 1825]

The best. King of fleecing :pimp:

[elementally morale]

About as good as Boston is as a team. Pretty good. Not the best.

[Jasper]

I remember the day when Paul Peirce thought he was a dick , and moved on.

Ainge is a little prick head , but when moves are required they are made ... Kyrie was a good move.

But this AD crap , I'd lov to see AD play for the Celtics for one year and LEAVE.:pimp:

[Wally450]

About to build the next Boston sports dynasty, so I'd say pretty damn good. :pimp:

We about to eat real good bois :banana: :pimp:

[ronniec]

He is not perfect, and Ainge is not, but I want him to be our GM for a very long time.

:biggums: Celtics are not maxing him. however, they will be knocking kyrie out of the playoffs with him starting :pimp:

[Manny98]

Rozier + Tatum + Brown ain't winning shit without Horford and Kyrie

Celtics are back to being a lottery team

[bobopenguin]

where's this angie magic now? :lol :lol :lol

[FireDavidKahn]

Lately he's been focused on winning trades rather than winning championships.

[scuzzy]

can't put it all on Ainge


to think they made it to the ECF last year without Kyrie/Hayward


2019 was suppose to be their Finals run this year and Kyrie n Co blew it.


The pieces were there, the vets simply didn't click with the youngins


now you have a bunch of pouting babies spewing in Boston

Sure you can. How many stars has Ainge passed on over the past few years that were available in trades?

Ainge should have done what Ujiri did and went for Kawhi.

They had a shot at a championship and were content instead of trying to get better.

Ainge has always been skimpy with assets :lol


But srs Jaylen, Tatum and Rozier looked like completely different players last post season and blossoming stars. I don't think anyone was entertaining the Leonard idea in Boston at the time last summer, especially 1ndone Kawhit scandals the past 2 years

But they did the Raptors?:lol

Raptors pretty much came in at the last second in the sweepstakes for Kawhi. And it isn't even like Boston didn't have a bunch of assets, they could have offered a boat load without emptying the cupboard.

[RealSkipBayless]

Dude had what? 2 Nets picks, Lakers, and Grizzlies pick when Jimmy Butler and Paul George were asking out. Didn't do jack shit. Gets a Kings pick. Kawhi becomes available, does nothing.

After you cashed in all those assets, all it ended up amounting to was Tatum and Brown? Kyrie and Rozier bolted. Horford sees the east improving and doesn't want to babysit a bunch of kids. He wants out.

Now the only move is to hope a free agent wants to go there after the IT scandal? :lol YIKES.

Reminder the mid 2000s pistons were comprised of a bunch of role players. Not saying the Celtics will do it but sometimes its more about the right combination of players than anything else.

[jbryan1984]

I respect most of the big deals he did. Getting Allen and KG certainly played off but to get rid of KG and Pierce on their last leg and sacrifice just a few years to get picks like Rozier, Brown, Tatum..... That is certainly pretty good when you can do that. The Kyrie deal made very good sense at the time as well. Gave him an excuse to not pay IT as well.

[PP34Deuce]

Danny held onto assets too long and was afraid to take huge moves.

Part of it was he waited for lebron to decline or leave..problem is he refused to make plays to truly take the team next level
