The five swaps suggested in the Insider article: 1. Atlanta Hawks for PF Josh Smith 2. Memphis Grizzlies for SF Rudy Gay 3. Indiana Pacers for SF Danny Granger 4. Utah Jazz for Paul Millsap and pick, or Enes Kanter and 2012 draft pick 5. Houston Rockets for Kevin Martin and Patrick Patterson/Jordan Hill From http://espn.go.com/blog/boston/celtics/post/_/id/4688795/insider-blow-up-cs-pierce-trades I actually like this but instead of giving up Patterson, we give up Budinger. What you guys think. Bring in a nice veteran who could bring leadership and skills to the court. This will make Houston an attractive place to play for and can lure in new players with pierce on the team. CLose if already posted.
If we go for Pierce, we might as well go after KG also (mainly his 21mil expiring contract). I just don't know how we could nab both though with their hefty contracts.
Doesn't make much sense considering there's two years left on his contract after this season and he will be untradeable in the interim.
Absolutely not. Martin is eight years younger, healthier, and about as good as an age 34 healthy Pierce.
Kobe doesnt lure free agents - he drives them away... based on what i read bout him n d12 ......kobe is such a gloryhound idiot....lol oh, and no to paul pierce...maybe 5 years ago....
