Not sure why this is even a vote/poll. This is an easy one for Vuc.

Those Boston rumors lit a fire. Vucevic is working hard for that trade.

Unless they want a package deal for the Nets pick I'm not interested. Nobody on that roster would make us better long term while filling the void Vuc would leave.

I really don't get the Brown hype. Dude is avg 5/2 and isn't even a good shooter. Don't we already have enough of those? I would want Brown, Bradley, and pick(not Brook) for Vuc and Mario. If not then have fun getting destroyed in the PO by any eastern conf C.

That's like saying you'd have traded Gordon his rookie year for some expiring declining power forward or 13/9 center? No you wouldn't, neither would they. Why would you use raw stats for a teenager who barely plays on the #2 seed in the east? Serge isn't going to yield that return and Vuc definitely isn't. If it did happen it would be a fleece in terms of value. Especially with the cap going up, having rookie deals is more valuable than ever.

It's all about value and like you said, rookie scale contracts are valuable. I think the players the Cs are most likely to move are Smart, Bradley and maybe Crowder. Smart and Bradley are on rookie scale or on a bargain contract for their productivity. They are FA after next year and Boston can't afford to keep them since Isiah Thomas also hits FA and he will be demanding a max. They also will have the possible #1 pick and will be drafting an all star guard. This is the time to trade their spares.

Boston is in dire need of a big. I'd do Ibaka for Bradley swap or even Marcus smart.

Vucevic easily. He looked great this game.

Vucevic easily. He looked great this game.

If Vučević was Batman for this game, Augustin was Robin. Wow he was super efficient with his stroke.

Gordon and Green teamed up for some capable defensive minutes at the SF. That was also important.

Of course, Vučević gets my vote.
