BAHAHAHAHAHAA what a ridiculous amount of money

Is he worth it

will trade speculation ever stop?
Summer of 2025 - Major changes for Celtics
2024. Porzingus, Brown, Tatum will take up 90% of the cap.
- With current roster they will be above the 2ns apron
(Easy fix. Trade Brogdon and buh bye Al) - $35 million
* You better draft well
* Tatum better be the veteran draw
- In order to continue to fill out your roster
Will you be happy if Tatum and Brown remain Celtics for most of their careers?
- How many championships will it take?
* Fire Mazzula and his shitty approach and we'll like them more
