Prior to KP’s injury, Ainge would’ve given up Brown or Tatum and Rozier, maybe big maybe
Post injury, there’s no chance in hell Ainge trades any of them for KP.
Seems like people forget that an ACL injury for an athlete is usually a career killer, and for a professional athlete in basketball, it definitely is.
The celts say no rather quickly. In fact, they wouldn't trade just Tatum alone for KP at this point. Come on you really think Ainge is going to throw in brown and rozier as well? You should propose that on the trade board.basketboule wrote:Would you trade KP for three of the Boston young guys? Who says no?

He would probably still trade Tatum and/or rozier. Because KP is exactly what he needs in his frontcourt besides Hayward, and Irving to be a legit championship team. A lot of the names you mentioned overlap on the roster and their frontcourt is their biggest weakness.

Zero chance Ainge deal Tatum after doing this kind of work late in the season as a rookie.....zero.

I like Montrezl a lot and would love to have him. Not a great rebounder, but he's lethal around the rim.
I would be surprised if we went after him though. I think we may bring back KOQ instead.

You could be right. Harrell serves a different function though - more of a lob target and a runner.
Ideally we could run a lineup of:
C: KOQ / Harrell
PF: KP / Harrell
SF: Lottery pick / Lance / 2nd round pick
SG: Hardaway / Dotson / Baker
PG: Frank / Burke / Mudiay
At the very least it would be a young exciting team that could compete on defense.

Not technically true. If the Lakers move to top 3, then it becomes Boston's pick.
