The trade kicker is paid by LAC. Jordan is the perfect player for our situation. You play him for 35 mins a night and hope Rondo turns him into a 20/10 guy and auction him off if your not in love.

I do agree but I still want more than pick 25 in a weak draft to do it.

I'd tell the Clippers to pound sand and walk at this point. There is a reason they are a loser franchise.

and yet the thread in LAC land is only 1/3 this length and not even directly tied to the rumor!! What I'm saying is, guys, I love you guys. Such a delight to come home from work to 40+ pages of rampant speculation!! If message boards could go on a rampage, well, I'm pretty sure this here is the equivalent. Just imagine what will happen once a deal actually goes through/officially falls apart!!
You gotta make it sexy! Hips and nips, otherwise I'm not eating.

Well said. It's all about rebuilding and stat padding to build value in players to then go out and get what you really want.

Pretty much this.

13/11/2 on 64% shooting per36 last season on 8.7 FGA per 36(only 3.4 fouls per 36 so not unreasonable to think he can play those minutes)

Give him some more shots and let him play big minutes.

Next summer becomes an expiring with a good season behind him.

16/12/2 in a high paced offense playing 35 minutes isn't out of the question imo.

It's not a fake. It's a Joke. A simile. A reference to the movie Say Anything where John Cusack holds the boombox over his head to get his girl back.

Six "Fire Ainge" threads, three "Official thank you player X" threads, four "Doc is a traitor" threads.

Per hour.

#Celtics, #Clippers talk on--but I've been told it's basically two deals: Draft picks (presumably No. 1s) for Doc… KG for DeAndre

Kyle Rotondo ‏@RotondoKyle 1h
@MarkHeisler do you think it gets done based on all the snags that are happening?

Mark Heisler ‏@MarkHeisler 45m
@RotondoKyle Haven't heard any serious problems yet but each of these things has a life of its own.

Kyle Rotondo ‏@RotondoKyle 42m
@MarkHeisler it was a rumor earlier today that the clips won't take lee or terry from @SherrodbCSN

Mark Heisler ‏@MarkHeisler 40m
@RotondoKyle @SherrodbCSN I heard it was an issue but can't believe it's a big one. One insider tells me #Clippers need more bodies anyway

He's used as a trade asset next year as an expiring deal, in a contract year, still young with one of our other players attached to get a better player

Ainge is trying to keep Pierce I think.

Trade as many guys (Terry/Lee/KG) and get under the apron then do a sign and trade for Millsap.

Out KG/Terry/Lee = 23 Mill
In DJ/Butler = 21 Mill

Then Out Bass, Melo,Crawford to Utah = 10 Mill
In Millsap for almost same amount = 10 Mill let's say

Trade Butler to 3rd team looking for large expiring = -8 Mill

That leaves:

Rondo/Schroeder 13.7 Mill
Bradley 2.5 Mill
Pierce/Green 24.2 Mill
Millsap/Sully 11.4 Mill
Jordan 13 Mill

That's way below the luxury tax line. Very decent team with Pierce still around and the addition of Millsap.

....Yes he does. We are all very mad because he's doing the right thing for his team. Which means we're not getting bledsoe or getting rid of terry/lee
