The most likely scenario

[DougJr74 70]

I just hope we get a good coach. Hopefully one that will stay for 20 to 30 years. Maybe I'm asking for to much.

SIAP but what’s the rumor with Ballo?

Team had the weekend off, he left Indiana for a trip but hasn't returned. I'm sure he is back by now

Does anyone know how much Brad really does make?  I've heard so many different numbers.  Brad is also very religious,  not in a over the top way.

Adding onto this, it was his own opinion, but if he hears something interesting, he will post it.

I‘ve seen speculation from a sportswriter in Boston that it may be $6-8 million.  Nobody really knows because the Celtics have never said.

I‘ve seen anywhere from $1.5 million to $11 million, but since the Celtics are Private, no one has a clue

That's a heck of a range.

And some messages I have gotten. It's Feb. 20. No one knows what is going on. The one thing I love this time is we have good backup options. We have a long way to go and it's going to be a roller coaster, that is for sure

That certainly sounds like we’ve moved past option #1.

Plus all of his bonuses too that are unknown.

Dare to dream. A recharged Tony Bennett for ten years would be fantastic:

It is very possible but I'm not sure yet. Have RTZ on here saying nothing has changed with him. Jerry seemed confident last night.

If you think Archie and Woodson basketball is hard to watch, you don’t want to watch Tony’s offense. Plus, he will never forgive Indiana after firing his sister.

Tony Bennet would be a great hire assuming he has a GM to handle NIL. Wasn’t transfer nonsense and NIL why he walked away?

Maybe he wasn’t opposed to the NIL game. Just opposed to being on the wrong side of it

Ops presidents / GM’s range from 1-3 million. I highly doubt he makes anything over 2 million. We’re talking about an organization that is currently up for sale as well.

Not that I would have much of a drop in excitement with option #2. It’s after that where it starts getting a little meh for me - though it would still potentially be a vast improvement over the current situation.

Personally, I'm weary... can it just be April and we know what we're doing from that point on? This is making me really, really tired.

He definitely makes more than $2 million. Likely a lot more than that. This article is from 8 years ago and a $2 million offer for President of basketball operations was considered a below market offer.
