Trade Value: Avery Bradley

What would you trade for Bradley? Would you trade for him for the right price? How high of a draft pick would you go for him?

Hard to see a team trading a lottery pick for Bradley, but he's exactly what you hope to get with a 15-20 pick. In a weaker draft, I could see a team looking to compete now trading a 10-14 pick as well.

I'd trade Mitch. Or a mid to late first if we had one.

I think he's worth a pick in the 13-18 range. I think Ainge would want a pick in the 10-14 range.

And I think MotorKeepsGoing hit it on the head in that he's exactly the kind of guy you hope to get if you're picking in the 15-20 range, but if you're a competitive team that is looking for help on the wing, a pick in the 10-14 range isn't that bad an overpayment for a guy who can help immediately, is still very young and locked into a reasonable deal.

Heat pick and a 2nd

Late lottery (around 11ish), he is a very good role player and a hell of a tenacious defender, but not a huge scorer or a guy who will become some sort of superstar. In saying that, if he went to the right situation, he could very well be a missing piece to certain teams (honestly, if he went to the spurs somehow, they would be title favorites given who they have)

Bradley would make a ton of sense as the worst starter on a contender... And in the new NBA he's cheap for that role.

Pick in the teens sounds right.

It's such a shame that he's not three inches taller, because then he'd almost be a prototypical 3&D SG. Anyhow a pick in the teens seems about right, he's a underrated athlete by the way.

14-18 but I think I'd rather keep the pick and hope the pick turns out to be better. AB is what he is, I think he can help a team out and be a solid bench guy but I'd rather keep pick 14 and hope I strike Leonard. Reminds me of when George Hill was traded to the Pacers.

I think he'd be a good PG in the triangle And with the Knicks

are you serious? OKC should throw the kitchen sink at bradley, he's exactly what you need, a 3&D 2.

I don't see how Alec's Burkes can get you a late lottery pick and Bradley can't. People say Burkes can be more of a scorer but Bradley has had more 20 plus games the last four years. Bradley is a lock down defender and a guy that's good for 36-40% behind the arc a season. I think he gets too much flack for his height which honestly doesn't seem to hurt his play on the either end. If he had a year left on his contract I would say a mid first, but since he's locked up on a decent salary I wouldn't move him for anything lower than #10-15 pick.

This. (And as such I could not decide what to pick between those categories.)

Mitch is the kitchen sink. He and Cam are the only real assets we have that are tradeable.

I could maybe see the Jazz offering their pick. With top 3 protection of course.

Okafor, MIA first, and Wroten for Bradley, Smart, and Brooklyn pick

I'd say no thanks, if i were Ainge more because of fit and because the value might be off a bit. Okafor's skillset is to oldshool and doesn't really fit what Stevens has done the last two years.

What do you think would need to be added? Okc first? Covington? I just think Hinkie loves athletes and defense way to much to let Noel suffer at the 4 and Okafor not fit that mold.

I don't see Ainge giving up a package of Smart and Brooklyn pick for anything less than a star. Okafor could develop into that star but nobody can predict a timeline for that. Thats why it would be a supertough sell to the fanbase and potentially even Stevens. It's Ainge we're talking about anything can happen, but two late firsts, Okafor and Wroten would not get me interested when we talk about Smart, Bradley and the Brooklyn pick.

So take out the late picks and say we swap La and Brooklyn picks, seems pretty close then.
