I would keep an eye on Boston they have talked about a possibility of A.Johnson & a future 1st of some kind for Koufas & Mac .
Again that is talk with nothing concrete as of yet .
Boston is trying to pry either Cousins still but are also trying to pry Butler or George . These are the 3 players they would like the most and they are trying to get one of them .

I am not here to start however what I stated is true .
I find it amazing that in past years you have asked me for info and know you are on your board name calling me and your mods allow this .
My source is legit . Doesn't mean a deal will happen . We have talked though .

Tyson Chandler has 3 years left on his Contract. And he's 34 now.
I don't think he'd be the guy.
Maybe Bogut, after a buyout?

Chandler has two years after this one at very reasonable money for a player of his caliber. That's a plus, not a minus. I'm taking Ainge at his word that he's not interested in a rental.
Parish played until he was 40. Chandler's age does not bother me at all. He does not stretch the floor. That's his only drawback.

If that is legit (big if) that seems pretty cheap and something that we could replicate, or perhaps form a 3 team trade with kings and magic. Something surrounding the BKN 18 (with BKN 17 and brown strictly off the table). Does anyone know if the source is at all credible?
Color me skeptical but the Kings looking for Evan Fournier, Nikola Vucevic and MAYBE some picks sounds more than a wee bit on the short side of what a deal for Cousins would be able to haul in. Both of the those guys a good young players with room to grow, could be starters on good teams and at the very least very good role players on a contending team, but you are not dealing a potential cornerstone NBA player for those guys without a plethora of picks coming in return as well. I would hope that if that is the going rate for Cousins that Danny Ainge is treating Magic GM Rob Hennigan with his Chipotle black card and putting the finishing touches on a Cousins-to-Boston deal as I write this.

According to several sources here at the NBA’s All-Star Weekend, the Celtics are heavily involved, at least in terms of discussions, on a number of fronts as both a main participant and as a facilitator. As yet, however, there has been nothing truly available that is worthy of their top assets.
“Danny’s let it be known that he’s willing to talk about the Nets’ picks,” said one league executive, referencing the first-rounders owed by Brooklyn this year (in a swap of first-round positions between the Celts and Nets) and next (unencumbered). “But you want one of those guys, you have to be willing to give up a star.”
The Celts will take a shot on a short-term player if the price is right, but that has not yet been the case. The C’s did investigate the Serge Ibaka situation, but word is they didn’t want to give up a lot when there is no guarantee they’d be willing to meet his price when he becomes a free agent this offseason.
The belief here is Ainge would, indeed, pull the trigger on a deal for a player such as Jimmy Butler or Paul George (should either become available) because such a talent would be his de facto free agent signing. But absent that, all indications are he will continue to work the edges and maintain flexibility. (And it should be noted Chicago and Indiana would rather build around those players than move them.)
You can expect the Celts to keep an eye on Danilo Gallinari, a shooter they’ve tried to get in the past.[b] Ainge has an NBA man-crush on Gallinari, who hasn’t been on the rumor radar, but that also was the case when Ainge went after Isaiah Thomas [/b]two years ago.

First I am not a professional writer . I do not claim to be the best speller with great use of commas etc. If you doubt me fine . I have been proven correct a number of times and I as well get contacted by many other members from other boards as well at times .
I have a direct inside source within the Kings organization . Again believe that or not I do not care .
I stand behind everything I have ever written . If you or anyone doubts me ever that is fine ignore me then . No need to name call .
Its' uncalled for . I am not here to troll or start drama . This is my last response . F.Y.I. you have in the past asked me for info and I responded most every time .
I ask that you in the future not to ask me for information as I have no desire to give information to anyone whom is rude and disrespectful .
Thank You & best of luck .

I'm not trying to start drama, & I won't ask you again. But you don't have to be a professional writer to put a period at the end of a sentence, right after the last letter of the last word, with no space. Like that.
You might have a source, I don't doubt that. But the fact you don't get why someone would be skeptical of an unidentified poster on a message board, & get hyper-defensive and touchy about being taken with a grain of salt, doesn't really help your case.
