Apa yang terjadi pada Al Horford? "Hari Danny" selesai!

Dilabeli akhir-akhir ini oleh banyak orang sebagai "melewati masa jayanya", Al Horford akan berusia 36 tahun musim depan. Jika Danny Ainge masih memimpin - sering secara terbuka mengkritik kecenderungan Red Auerbach untuk berpegang teguh pada bintang-bintang yang menua - "Affable Al" hampir pasti akan menuju ke luar kota sebelum Batas Waktu Perdagangan 10 Februari. Kita semua ingat transaksi Paul Pierce-dan-Kevin Garnett-to-the-Nets.

Tapi Brad Stevens duduk di "kursi besar" untuk Boston sekarang, dan dia mungkin tidak begitu cenderung untuk menempatkan Al di luar sana sebagai umpan perdagangan. Diakui, Horford melewati puncaknya dan skornya turun musim ini, seperti akurasinya dari lapangan dan di luar busur.

Namun dibandingkan dengan musim lalu di OKC, upaya tembakan lapangannya turun dari 16.6 (OKC) menjadi 1.1 (Boston), sedangkan upaya tembakan 3 angkanya turun dari 7.0 (OKC) menjadi 5.0 (Boston). Dengan kata lain, dia tidak terlibat dalam pelanggaran di Boston musim ini - setidaknya sebagian dari alasan pengurangan skornya.

Kontrak Al untuk musim depan membutuhkan $26,5 juta dengan jaminan hanya $14,5 juta. Pilihan ke-3 secara keseluruhan dalam draft NBA 2007 memiliki keterampilan dan permainan yang cocok di mana saja, tetapi gajinya adalah poin penting bagi tim yang berusaha mati-matian untuk merunduk di bawah wilayah Pajak Mewah.

Horford tetap menjadi bintang (5 penampilan All-Star) tanpa cincin Judul. Jika Stevens memilih untuk menukarnya, mudah-mudahan itu akan menjadi pesaing Kejuaraan - penunjukan yang tidak terkait dengan Celtics sekarang. Meskipun meninggalkan Boston dengan agen bebas, individu yang baik ini layak untuk tetap berada di Boston (jika keuangan tim memungkinkan) atau menuju tim yang memiliki peluang bagus di Final NBA. "Hari Danny" selesai. Mari kita lihat apa yang dipilih Brad Stevens.

In defense of Marcus Smart

Let me make it clear first of all that I am totally against making a threat of any kind that even hints at harming, or certainly killing, another human being. Marcus Smart was wrong in doing so in the Celtics loss to the tanking Oklahoma City Thunder , and he deserved the one-game suspension. But to be honest, part of me loved that it occurred. . This type of thing can happen when a player gets to a point "beyond frustration" and is having a bad game. Marcus and his teammates have been under-performing generally - were in the process of losing to a pathetic-and-tanking Thunder team - and Smart was having a bad game . And he let loose verbally at the closest target - an NBA official. Wilt Chamberlain did a similar act versus referee, Earl Strom when Wilt was having his usual tortuous time at the free throw line (per Chicago Tribune's Sam Smith): ''He was in one of those 1-for-13s,'' recalls referee Earl Strom. ''Nothing was getting close. S...
