SSBA FA 2032 day 1 results & discussion

[CelticsGM]

... When rebuilding, it's not about positions of need, but stockpiling talent for trades. Prior to acquiring the 3 of them, I had no starting SF and no starting PF. Now I have both, with a decent young backup with potential.

I like the Marvin signing, he could be a starter. And I somehow understand the Posey offer. But I have no clue what to make of Simmons' contract. I don't know how many times he's disappointed me (preseason mostly) and he's got opportunities enough. Honestly, if there wasn't a little interest in a S&T i would not have brought him back, not even for a 1yr expiring deal.

So if you really believe teams are in line to take Cedric with that massive contract now, good luck. He better prove some value first ...

Damn. This was by far the best FA we had without cap space

I'm hoping that he'll prove to be the shotblocker at PF he was touted as coming out of college. If he gets up to something like A B+ at PF, then it's worth it.

Happy to pick myself up a young PG in Steve Ostertag.
This will give me some flexibiity with Russel Westbrook

I think Calbert was signed to a pretty good deal.

I think Calbert was signed to a pretty good deal.

To tell you the truth, I was reluctant to give him such a big offer. I would have preferred DeWolf instead. His production is higher and I was hoping Mashburn or Laettner would take the huge contracts instead but Calbert took the contract first.
