No. However, Orlando could be a good trade partner. I think they want to build around Gordon so getting him could be tough. That said he could fit in quit well in Boston. Imagine an offense going against Smart/Bradley/Brown/Crowder/Gordon. Okay, that line up would have trouble scoring but so would the opponent.

Orlando is rebuilding, they need point guards, Payton isn't that good.

Some trades that could work.
Isaiah and Zeller for Vucevic and Gordon? (Maybe Boston gets to swap picks down the road)
Bradley and Jackson for Vuvevic?
Bradley for Gordon and Hezonja?
Bradley and Zeller for Fournier?
Zeller, Yabuselle, and Boston's 2018 1st for Vucevic?

If Aaron Gordon wasn't in the dunk contest nobody would give a crap about him.

Absolutely, we need to unconsoladate assets more obviously.

Spoiler:

We could certainly use his supreme speed as Quicksilver. If Scarlet Witch comes with the trade, I'm in.

If you had at least posted this in the trade thread, you could've gotten away with the longtime lurker narrative... but nobody starts their own (awful) trade idea thread on game day of the ECF unless they're not a Celtics fan & have skin in the game.

thegreenlife is right--- dude's a ringer for an Orlandonian throwaway account. We see you & we recognize your tricks, Mickey.

this might be the dumbest trade idea i have ever seen. At no time did you make what would be thought of as a relevant thought. We are all now dumber for reading it. May god have mercy on your soul.

When does winning basketball games count? Why make a trade that just gives us more small pieces.

The Celtics need to be trading nickels and dimes for quarters and dollars, not the other way around.

I have no problem with trading down to the 4-7 range if Ainge believes there is a quality player there and he isn't in love with Fultz, but I'd like a little more than Aaron Gordon and Vucevic to do it. I like Gordon but I'd rather just sign Hayward and keep the first pick. And Vucevic is nice, but eh. Also this trade doesn't even work.

If you trade down you need to be acquiring a legit young player.
