smart makes like 4 million so unless the C's trade an additional 6 or so...which the only two players on there roster making that kind of money are Crowder and IT3...do you think the celtics would trade Smart and Crowder for Lee? Does that make sense?

No, people don't like to be played with. If your gonna post without a source/link then one of your predictions will have to occur before you gain credibility here. If you are legit and that truth comes out, you will be highly regarded believe it.

I get that - but I can't post a source unless you want me to screen grab a text convo. I already told everyone on here don't regard me as a source - cause I dont wanna be one. I just post info when I hear from someone in the industry.

No that trade makes zero sense the way you proposed it but if you think about how heavy the Celtics are at small forward and how they are sort of weak on shooting and rebounding. You really can't imagine us shipping O'Quinn and Lee over for Crowder and Smart? Then flipping Crowder. Especially given Crowder and Haywoods weird relationship?? That trade works by the way, and would be very easy for both sides to pull the trigger.

Re: The MeloPause Trade Thread
you think the celtics would trade smart and crowder for KOQ and Lee? I mean if they wanted to do that be my guest that would be the heist of a lifetime and I would construct a statue outside of MSG for Perry.

I agree, and you would be betraying your contact if you did that. I personally wouldn't want to see that happen. We've had people come on here with the real goods, and some pretenders. That's why your getting some ish from people. And hey, if your really hearing these things we appreciate you posting them.

If he tried to do that, I would just bench him the entire year. F*ck him. We don't owe him sh*t. And f*ck stephen jackson too.
At this stage of his career melo is barely good enough to start anyway. Just a black hole on offense and plays no D. Let him ride the pine surrounded by hard working defensive minded players off the bench
Are you trying for dumbest post of the year??

I mean I see the point you are making - and I agree with you. Which is sort of why I said I don't know the scenario in place. "C's targeting Lee" is all I'm working with.
I assume they are filling the holes in their roster so they can contend rather than holding onto all their assets until everybody hands them the perfect roster on a silver platter of fantastic trades but who knows - it's Danny Ainge

Ummm, I'm pretty sure Love has more value around the league than Ryan Anderson to flip to a third team. Why was Woj so quick to dismiss it as if we were the ones not interested in doing a deal with Cleveland?
Did I hear that correctly?

they also just signed Aron Baynes so the need for KOQ isn't as great as before.

Re: The MeloPause Trade Thread
Crowder is honestly better than Lee and O'Quinn. Why the hell would the C's do this plus smart? What would be the end goal? Even if they were to get a 3rd team involved, then I'm assuming the Celtics are looking for upgrades and there aren't many wings or bigs out there that are available that are better than Crowder is. And also if a team is willing to part with someone more impactful than Crowder they are going to want something good in return? How are they going to get that? All of a sudden Danny is going to start wheeling and dealing those Brooklyn picks? Highly doubtful... Use your brains people. This makes zero sense for anyone but the Knicks
