After passing on boogie, its hard for me to envision us taking on Melo unless he's coming hella, hella-cheap !

Crowder/Melo
Melo/Olynyk
Horford/Bogut

Could be cool I suppose


IT/Smart
Bradley/Brown
Crowder/Tucker
Melo/Olynyk
Horford/Bogut

Add in Tucker and looks decent 8-)


I like that, and if we are really wishing and hoping, how about KOQ included in the Melo trade?

Nah man, something's brewing. I know its only Monday night and guys are off for a few days, but Crowder tweeting out emos means that something is up ..something that pushes the needle for us and Jae is staying.

Will it be too much of a jinx if I started a Tyler Zeller Appreciation Thread already?

Quick read but confirms our hopes for this All-Star game and confirms that as awesome as the BKN picks are, our best asset may just be our coach.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

Let's not jinx this like I did in 2012 when I made that thread saying we were going to the finals again

That Blake rumor is a major overpay.

Here's a twist- could Knicks become so desperate to dump Melo and his money that we get their pick this year or next?

I just conjured up a crazy but technically possible trade idea, thoughts?

Celtics receive:
Jimmy Butler
Andrew Bogut

Bulls receive:
Jahlil Okafor
Jaylen Brown
2017 first round pick (via BKN)

Sixers receive:
Avery Bradley

Mavericks receive:
Amir Johnson
2018 first round pick (via BOS)

For Blake? I'd go as high as Bradley, Yabusele, LAC pick.

It helps us tremendously in free agency to be able to tell Blake we tried to get him several times, and his coach listened.
