Boston could do something like this:

IT
Butler
Brown
Griffin
Horf

or

IT
Bradley
Butler
Griffin
Horf

Whatever they do, it might make more sense to trade Bradley than Crowder. Crowder is far more resignable for next year

I told you this 12 times

Crowder has 3 years left at 7 million per
 

#1 pick

Exactly my point, he's far more resignable as he's not a RFA. Breh, how many times you gotta get negged breh for being a dikk.

At Age 28 and in his prime, given Thibs made him have hella minutes when was younger and its clear he's can't be the best player On a championship squad , if we can somehow get Okafor and a top 3 pick..it ain't happening but shyt if the offer was there, GarPax would be fools not to take it

My personal guess is, the real deal ainge is trying pull off is sending maybe crowder, one of philly picks and okafor to the bulls, while boston keeps that bkn pick.

If the deal rumored to be is true, that's basically boston gave up both brk picks for jimmy. That is really hard to believe.

Part of me feels this is all talk, ainge might have picked up the phone put in the call to garpax to try and use one if philly assets to pry jimmy from them rather than use those bkn picks, might have been what all the commotion was at the deadline too.

I do know, that if the bulls trade jimmy , shortly after having a sit down with him and ensuring his security here in chicago, garpax looks like real scum :heh:

fukk trading for Jimmy Butler. Especially for both Brooklyn picks? Celtics need to let Jaylen Brown play. He could be Jimmy with the right development. If Philly wants to trade #3 and the Lakers pick to move up to #1 fine, do that, but ain't no way we trading all these picks for Jimmy Butler. He ain't no difference maker in getting out the East, and sure as hell doesn't get the C's past GS. Collect these young guns and plan for a 2019-2025 dominance run.

Naw but I am sure this is setting up for a buyout for him to join the Cavs next year. This trade could just end up Loading up the Cavs with Wade and Paul George. Wade maybe older he still provide just what they need off the jump.

I'd take an old ass Wade for JR bum ass any day of the week

Why would they trade both of the picks without other comp? I would imagine they are getting picks from Philly for Fultz
I'm inquiring. Not big on general managing and personnel.

Unless it's part of a move where the Cavs pick up a different 3-and-D guard to replace JR, how the hell would Wade work? At his age and health level he's going to be more of a liability on defense, he doesn't stretch the floor as much, they don't need another ballhandler/scorer on a team with Lebron-Kyrie-Love unless they're moving to some sort of motion offense....he could be a spark off the bench that would help the 2nd unit survive without Lebron, but that means you'd be trading your starting SG for a backup SG.

Wade is just not a good fit at this stage of his career as long as Kyrie is on the team.

He don't have to carry the load but you can put him in the PG position and they role with a big guard line up and he's the best back to the basket PG in the league right now

That's actually exactly what they could do with him, but that's not doing much for you unless you're trading Kyrie for someone else.

But in that hypothetical world where they trade away Love and Irving for Butler and George....

Wade
Butler
PG13
Lebron
TT
