I will trade bledsoe only if i know doc has talk with CP3 and confirm he's coming back. hell u can always pick up a cheap PG in free-agency , plus even tho crawford isn't a point guard per say he can handle the rock.

KG got 2 years left in the tank.. plus gary sacks can convince donald sterling to deal wit the lakers and see if they are willing to do a trade wit dwight for blake

On the one hand, I understand the move by the clippers because their current team has a ceiling on it...

On the other hand, they get Piru and KG and that pretty much means that they got a 2 year window to win a chip...then they are done and i don't see CP3 sticking around after those 2 leave no matter how long he signs for...

Deal probably gets done today.

Trying to find way around Clippers refusal to include Bledsoe.

There is no point for the celtics to do this if they don't get bledsoe/jordan/picks...I thought it was going to be butler/jordan/bledsoe/picks for pierce/kg/rights to sign doc...

I dont trust that buy out pierce because if hes on waivers a some team with a lesser record will sign him.

So if the clippers do that celtic trade, get pierce and trade for Howard as well as sign cp3 they might look like this next year?

Howard
Garnett
Pierce
Billups
Cp3

It's a wrap for the league if this happens

He's under contract for 3 more years, was given $35 million to stay. Highest paid coach. Publically acknowledged there would be a rebuild at some point he'd be involved with. Every year he pulls crap where he might not come back.

Now he's including KG...

And pierce!!!

Discussions over a blockbuster deal reached an impasse on Saturday when Boston general manager Danny Ainge held firm that Bledsoe had to be a part of package that included DeAndre Jordan and a first-round pick, but sources say that Boston has shown a willingness to find another asset to supplant Bledsoe and complete the complicated deal, sources said. Yahoo! Sports

The Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Clippers are discussing possible compromises to including guard Eric Bledsoe into the Kevin Garnett-Doc Rivers deal with hopes of completing an agreement on Monday, league sources told Yahoo! Sports. Yahoo! Sports

Chris Mannix: Sentiment around the league is that Doc Rivers/Boston has reached point of no return, regardless of the outcome of Clippers talks. Twitter @ChrisMannixSI

Mark Heisler: Insider says #Celtics, #Clippers closing in on Doc-KG deal. Celts are fine w/Doc going since owners don't want to pay him $7 mill to rebuild Twitter @MarkHeisler

Baxter Holmes: League source estimates there's a 60% chance Doc coaches Clips, 30% he returns to broadcasting, 10% he returns to C's. Twitter @BaxterHolmes
