0:16.9	This was the mystery of the week.
0:19.0	Where in the world was Al Horford going?
0:22.2	Jason Glushan Al Horford's agent tried to do a deal in Boston.
0:27.1	I was told Boston did go four years on an offer, but the money was significantly less than the Philly deal.
0:33.2	And to be clear on the Philly deal, $109 million with bonuses.
0:37.3	It's $97 million guaranteed,
0:40.3	$12 million in bonuses that would be tied to championship. Al Horford and Dave Yeager just said it,
0:47.3	a player who can play the four along with Embed, and if Embed misses time, you can move
0:51.7	Al Horford in there. And I think bringing in Horford's maturity, his character, his leadership, 12 years in the NBA, 12 trips to the playoffs.
1:01.1	Pretty remarkable.
1:05.8	Okay, kicking the Jimmy weekend for the Celtics, two-fold.
1:10.1	Kyrie got Durant to go with him. Kickicking the Jimmy. Again, losing Kyrie and signing the Walker, I think is a nice trade-off for the Celtics. I'm okay with that in a vacuum. But the fact that Kyrie got Durant to go with them, that's a pair in your division, kicking the Jimmy. Kick in the Jimmy part two, Horford leaves. Also goes to a division rival. and I just say division because it's a little more dramatic. We don't care about divisions. But a team standing right in your way, who has no idea how to play the game and he might teach him. And it's the why. It's the why. Why did Horford leave? Why? Woge there on ESPN said the money's significant. I don't think it really would have been. The Celtics were offering three times 20. When it all started, they thought he was going to opt out and re-sign in for three times 20. He was due one year at 30, and they say, we'll tack on another couple of years, bring it down to 20 a year, and we'll give you two extra years, it'll be three at 20. Bullpet, others have reported this. So Philly comes in at four times 24. Again, it's being reported as $109 million. It's not. He just said it. 97. The extra 12 is tied to them winning the championship, or maybe multiples even. So it's 24. He got four times 24. So Wode said the Celtics did offer a fourth year. So it had to be at least 20 million.
2:21.3	So the Celtics... So it's 24. He got four times 24.
2:19.7	So Wode said the Celtics did offer a fourth year.
