I bet all my And-1's Blake Griffin will be a Celtic.


edit: Mods, is this possible, can you edit And-1s so this can happen? Just need someone to bet against.

Jaylen brown put up a respectable 1.324 points per shot in summer league.
Blake Griffen has put up a respectable 1.338 points per Sot for his career.......
yeah...we could use him.

Quoting ddb in here just in case the other thread gets buried/locked before everyone wakes up:

ddb wrote:I caught up with one of my contacts today who interestingly enough is pretty good friends and a former colleague of Sam Presti. I asked him about all the rumors floating around Vegas about Danny looking to make a big trade i.e. Griffin, Westbrook, Cousins, etc. First of all, his reaction was great. He basically said that he believes it isn't if, but when & for who. He told me that with Danny's assets he 100% can make a major deal if he really wants to. But that it takes a special circumstance to acquire a superstar.
So I will just come out and say it. He told me that Danny & Sam are discussing a Westbrook deal. He thinks Westbrook is the more attainable superstar over both Griffin, Cousins, Butler and even Love because OKC is not confident at all that Westbrook resigns. Pair that with the fact that the longer Sam waits, the more Westbrooks value goes down.
My guy told me that what Danny is offering is borderline laughable and BK picks are off the table without a commitment from Westbrook.
My contact also told me that he is not familiar with current Griffin to Boston talks but that it doesn't mean Doc & Danny aren't quietly discussing something. He joked that I should look into whether or not those 2 have played golf together lately.
Last note I can share. He thinks Westbrook is a goner this summer. Not necessarily to Boston, but that Boston is equipped to get a deal done tomorrow if Danny is willing to include a couple specific chips that Presti wants.

I saw this but it made me think that Lebron hasn't resigned yet, maybe the Cavs are also contemplating a Westbrooke deal even if for a one year rental just to try and stick it to Golden state and Durant.

I'm down with giving up trash for Westbrook.

But nothing of value.
