Hard to say. Maybe something for a future first with protections on it so it would likely be a mid to late lotto pick down the road. I think Ainge would do that if he doesn't see Sully making a leap forward. What would the filer be?
Sully is 22 and already top ten in his position at rebounds. I hate talking trades because people always overate their own players(Boston fans especially), but I look at other teams boards and they've suggested trading for Sully. Wizards fans want to offer a late first and a expiring, and Toronto fans think offering Ross(who they think shouldn't even start) is a over pay. Celtic fans have no patients, he was a steal at where we drafted him. I admit I thought his stats would go up and his weight would go down this year, but he's still immature and has a lot of time to improve. Danny wouldn't move him unless he was making out on the deal.Porter would have to be involve, and I don't think the Wizards want to move him. Celtics fans need to give Sully till the end of the year, with Green gone he'll get a lot more touches, and his shooting% has improved since last.
It's not that Sully is bad, its just that he's not going to turn into a star.
It's hard to tell that when he's only played 150 games. Guys like Millsap and Ibaka became better defenders overtime and offensive game wasn't even there until their fourth year in the league. Boston fans thought he was the next Love last year, and now think he has hit his peak this year at 22.
