Sh!t, I got to get some things done before taking the wife to B-Town. You all just had to go and stir up the board this morning! Just put the phone down Recon, put the phone down!

Not sure how anyone outside the Brad Stevens could say that. Even Dolson would t know unless he’s been told, ‘let’s meet and sign this thing.’

Yeah, the guy you quoted seems to jump on the energy of the thread at a given time and makes a prediction—likely unsourced. *shrug*. We have our verified guys so it’s fine

Here is a summary of all the flight info we've been tracking since Wednesday. 

I get flight info thrown at me from 3 different directions, and try to sort it out, so I am going to try and sort this out here.

We had 2 planes linked to Ned Pfau go to Opa-Locka on Wednesday. About the same time had a plane from Bedford, MA (where Brad and Celtics fly out of) going to Opa Locka. I've had several people tell me that Brad has a rep near Opa-Locka airport, so the assumption was that it was contract related.

Ned's plane then flew to Philly and has been there since Wednesday afternoon. It left this morning to go back to Opa, about the same time a plane from Bedford, MA was due in Philly. Now they missed each other by 15 minutes. Possible smoke screen, because Dolson knows we are tracking.

Then this final one popped up from Philly to Bloomington. No links to anyone, as it is a chartered jet.

You take all these together, and it is just an amazing set of coincidences, or is it involved? Hope that helps

 

Tracy on Philly --> Opa Locka to work with Stevens agency on contract details

Stevens and IU reps on Philly --> Bloomington to keep discussing.

My random conjecture.

Ink dried

Official press conference 

House bought in Bloomington 

However, since nothing has happened yet, it is still a pipe dream

Did someone piss in your cereal this morning?

I will give Dolson this.  At least he isn’t shopping from the Archie Miller or Mike Woodson bargain barrel this time it seems.  Feels like my Bears going after Ben Johnson after paying Eberflus half for 3 years.  I want to believe.  No insight to how hands off certain outspoken individuals are behind the scenes.  Been trying to get a feel on that as much as anything.  That will tell us how much freedom Dolson has and what the decision will look like.

@Chris007 saying love is in the air—could be a Valentine’s Day joke, but also Philly is the city of brotherly love.

Side note: Everytime I see an Oklahoma score they are losing by 25+, and then I check their record and they are 16-8.  Don't know how it's possible.

N53HA as you said was in PHL since yesterday afternoon. Maybe Dolson stayed in Philly last night and through today, when he’ll take the chartered plane to Bloomington at 3:30pm? 
This leaves 4 hours of mutual time in Philly for Dolson and anyone who landed from Bedford this morning. Hey, maybe they’re all headed to Btown together?

Feels like when information starts to leak, it will come from NBA media sources.

If Stevens decides to take the job, he'll want to ensure the Celtics have a plan in place to replace him which NBA sources will easily get wind of.

100%. Shams is my bet.

It's gonna hurt so bad when he turns us down. 

It shouldn’t, if that happens and you haven’t prepared yourself for that actuality, that’s on you (not you personally, just saying people hoping for Brad, need to be prepared that it might not happen).

They started 13-0, so they’ve lost most of their games since then.

Fwiw, i do think some sort of agreement has been reached, doesn't mean this is done yet. Dolson is a mad man as i said, but is he a closer? We shall see(i think he is)
