Except for some basic facts this is true:

Jaylen Brown hasn't signed.

Tyler Zeller is still in the air.

Yabusele hasn't been determined.

We got KG 100% because of Kevin McHale and Jefferson turned out to be a stud.

We don't have one single player to give away that's a stud other than IT and Horford. Forget the picks, forget Bradley and Jae and other scrubs we have no STAR or potential star players that other teams want.

Why would ANYONE give you a star player for some scrubs or some draft picks that have 0.1% chance of being good like the star player you would receive.

If you had a Ferrari would you trade it for Ford Focus ? Sure both will take you to point A and B but that Ferrari will get you there in style.

Our entire roster right now has two OK All Stars and solid role players - nothing else. So if you area GM ...would you give a bonafied ALL STAR player for someone like Jae, Bradley, Smart and some picks...

The only way you might consider this is if you are 100% sure that your free agent won't return. Other than that NO.

People like to mention the KG trade. We traded 7 players for KG. Al Jefferson was and still is one of the best low post scorers in the game.

Again say what you want but this is how I seperate MEN from the BOYS..

IT. - Solid player and a back up ALL STAR.
Al Horford - Very good player and also back up ALL Star

These two players are very good players and COULD get you a TRUE star if a trade was going to happen but they are not your ELITE, KILLER ALL STARS

jae crowder
Al bradley
Marcus Smart
Olenyk
Jerberko can't even write his name
Zeller
Brown

Etc etc etc

To me these players are LAUGHING STOCK.

Bradley would do fine in Cleveland and Warriors for defensice purposes and what not. Same with Jae to be that James Posey guy. Or Leon Powe

but realisticay all these guys besides IT and Al Horford dont fetch that much.

So again, its nice to talk about rumors but I have to agree with BannersOnly. People do crazy and weird things for attention and some cyber fame.

This pathetic loser on Twitter is just a lamer who is probably on these forums, heck maybe even involved with this thread.

A lesson should be learned from the KD fiasco. KD was never coming here to play with the players we have now.

I respect Al Horfords decision to play here but giving him that amount of mone at 30 yrs of age WE MUST COMPETE for a championship while he is still somewhat young. If by 33-34 we are not a serious contenders then that Max Contract the gave him was a HUGE WASTE OF MONEY.

I know guys like you and Banners get tired of hearing it, but this is exactly what everyone talks about.

a) You start off saying the Celtics "aren't fortunate enough" to get a player like Westbrook or Griffin and that we only got KG cause of Kevin McHale, while admitting in practically the next sentence we gave up 7 players. Like we were done a favor while giving up half a full roster at the same time, but ok.

b) You acknowledge that at the same time, you don't like the roster at is; you seem to be at best luke warm on IT and Horford, while calling the rest of the roster including Jae Crowder and Avery Bradley "a laughing stock". At least several posters have said that the C's should stand pat and see what they have, but it sounds like you already have even less hope than that for this roster. Just off this I wonder about your beef with this thread; why not discuss rumors to trade for a star if this roster really isn't good enough, whether the chances are realistic or not?

c) You go on and say all this is why Durant "was never coming here to play" even though it's been reported how close he was to doing so. Again, using this logic, maybe if we acquire a star player now, that will help us next free agency to get someone else. Again, why do you have a problem with this topic again?

d) We have to compete now for Horford's sake, after all. Will that happen waiting on the 2017 and 2018 pick? Who knows.

So what does your post really boil down to? That the Celtics have no hope and should dwindle in a pool of despair and self-pity? Everything in your posts I could argue is exactly WHY the Celtics should try and get a Westbrook or Griffin, IF NOT go for both.

So yes, all you've got is "well they're the Celtics, they're not good anyway, no one's interested in them"? We could do that every year unless one of these picks pan out if we really wanted to, like we're Kings fans or something.

The way I see it, if the team isn't good enough, then Danny is well within his right to try and do something about it. Not sit down and say "well no one wants what we have, why bother"?

So much this. Just waiting on those first two are crucial in my mind in relation to any possible trade.

Hey, we should have tanked harder when we had the chance, but here we are. Those Nets picks are gold, and we really do have a ton decent assets to flood people with in trade. We are also in a decent situation of being able to remain patient. We can literally just draft the Nets picks and build a pretty good team that way. This is a luxury that the Thunder absolutely does not have right now. They NEED to trade Westbrook before the start of camp, and he basically has a de facto no-trade clause by virtue of being able to tell prospective teams not to bother because he won't resign with them. This is a game of chicken where Presti has very little leverage.

Fab Jesus Melo · Post #1268 » by **Fab Jesus Melo** » Mon Jul 18, 2016 2:26 am

Those of you who say the Celtics don't have the assets for Blake Griffin and Russell Westbrook aren't paying attention!

Following this thread is exactly like following Game of Thrones.

From being a very entertaining thread, then a few guys come in and ruin the fun for everyone, to the thread being absolutely horrible, then back to entertaining.

The funny part is NOT A SINGLE REAL TRUE conformation that we had talks for Blake and RW. Forget some twitter guys and some other BS but we are on a 3rd thred and people high on DMT creating movies and delusions how we might get blake or skinny jeans. Like, PCP has many side effects.

I really trully feel sorry for the people who have hopes that either one of these guys is coming here. Might as well watch paint dry.

They do. However, why is it in Danny's best interest to do anything but low ball offer for Griffin and Westbrook now? And, conversely, why would Doc trade Griffin for anything but a home run deal now? That's why the Griffin deal will NOT happen anytime soon. There's no rush on either side.........this twitter bonehead and other "sources" acting like it's going to happen this month are full of sh*t. There is absolutely no reason for Doc to accept a low ball offer from Danny and Danny won't overbid either. As for Westbrook, I doubt Danny does that unless he gets Griffin first. Nothin is happening anytime soon. Book it.

LOL true story............and people getting in their feelings because guys like us are stating our opinions on a discussion forum. :lol:

What I would do is offer the ENTIRE MFKIN TEAM including the picks for RW and BG assuming they would resign. Fahk that Greedy BS.

Offer 2017, 2018 nets pick for Cousins, throw in anyone else they desire thats not IT or Horford and get the fahking thing done.

I would offer 2017 and 18 pick STRAIGHT up for RW plus bradley or smart or brown or whoever.

Westbrook is a player that if there's a chance to get him you sell your entire shiztsu farm to get a pitbull

And we better add some outside shooting and rebounding.

The entire month of July of 2007 there wasn't any news saying Ainge was talking with Minny. The media denied it, said it wasn't happening, said KG wasn't going to play or re-sign in Boston, and CSNNE had guys like Ryan Rusillo on a few days before the trade saying KG was not coming to Boston. And voila.

What do you want, the teams to take an ad out in the paper? You listen here. Russell Westbrook is getting traded before training camp. People are totally underestimating how screwed OKC is right now. Durant leaving them for nothing is catastrophic. Russell Westbrook is 100% out of there next summer, and there's not a goddamn thing that Presti can do about it.

Fortunately for their fans, he isn't a stupid SOB. He caught a bad break on KD, but this is a guy who traded Harden, Ibaka and Jeff Green a year early rather than a year too late. ALL of those deals came out of nowhere, and he WILL do the same with Westbrook this summer.

Real G's move in silence like lasagna.
