Sure they’d be really good short term, but they’d cap themselves out long term specially if they have to overpay for an aging CP3.
Im expecting the Celts and the Raps to get atleast a borderline C like Whiteside. Maybe trade future picks for Drummond?

I think Drummond would be pretty cheap - there's a reason he picked up his player option.

He’s also just 26yo. Just as old as Embiid.
And has more upside to his 3pt shooting game than Ben
Drummond is a 3pt shooting away from being like the perfect model center for the Celts.

Same.
I'm Canadian. Can someone explain our new jersey to me? What are the houses meant to be?
(I must say, I like them better up close than from a distance, which is how we'll see them. I understand why the design appealed to... whoever it appealed to. It's pretty cool. It just doesn't look good on a jersey.)
I like that Nuggets jersey

The outlined houses represent Boathouse Row on the Schuylkill river.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boathouse_Row

I don’t know, it’s pretty unclear whether his numbers actually translate into anything.
I don’t think he’s that much better than what centers you can get for the mid level. Whereas I’d say Hayward (who the Celtics would pretty much have to include in the trade to match) is a lot better than the wings you can get at the mid level. Like would you rather have Whiteside like you said (or maybe Derrick Favors) and Hayward or alternatively Drummond and, I don’t know, Justin Holiday?
If I had to predict I would say he runs into a similar issue as Kanter two years ago where plenty of people would take him on their team but no one wants to give up the salary to match him in a trade and he eventually gets bought out. Maybe the Celtics get him that way.

I'd be surprised if Boston goes after Drummond. I just don't see the upside for them relative to the expense. That's this season's fortune and he'll need to be resigned for another fortune. If I'm Boston I'd be thinking "Embiid stopper" if I'm looking to upgrade the 5 and so I'd consider bringing Banes back (RFA or S+T) or maybe a 500 year old Marc Gasol, someone who can at least match up and not break the bank. Remember Boston doesn't need a name player in the middle just a complimentary guy who can body with Biid.
