I'd do it, and they might. Ainge has wings to spare, but doesn't have much in line of C prospects.

But before we shop Bamba I'd like to hope the team would explore trading for possibly cheaper guys, like Anfernee Simons, or maybe NAW for someone like DJ or Fournier, or even just a future first (protected).

But for now I would hold on to him in case Beal gets moved. I could see Bamba being a big chip in a package we might offer.

With Birch re-signed, it does feel like Bamba is exposed.
If the staff feel Fultz is 100%, I could see Bamba and DJ's expiring a good package for a team.

Brown gets a new contract next year, so if something like this was done, no way should anything be added. I would almost want something coming back the other way.

The Celts have Robert Williams already who is a lower level prospect than Bamba I think (due to his lack of offense) but he’s gigantic, athletic, and protects the rim. I could see them passing on this deal because they have 3/4ths of Bamba sitting their bench.

Ehh I don’t get the infatuation the board has with Brown, especially on a contract year.

I want to give Bamba a full *healthy season prior to shipping him off to someone that is seeking 20m + a year (while still paying 30m+ a year for that position already).

Bamba needs to develop, get healthy and prove his lottery worth and then be packaged for a star player *if he’s ever dealt.

I really like Brown and I would certainly trade Bamba for him. But hearing about Westbrook's "negative value" around here, just wait for Brown's payday.

I feel like this is leading to a punchline. Cos no way j-ragg has ever offended anyone enough that they'd stalk him on 3 different threads to say the same thing.
