    Just imagine how deep the front like would be with Green and Bass. Bass can play small ball C and Green can defend the wing if need be. Want.

    They'd be like the 10-14 Celtics. Can't wait.

    Honestly, this soap opera is all very interesting to us to follow. Can't be very fun for the players, though. After all, we are not the ones who have to move.

    Don't worry, you're not the only person they have fooled

    Ewwww on these scrubby Celtics players.

    We are giving up freaking Omer Asik. Getting back Jeff Green or Brandon Bass would be a slap in the face.

    Jeff Green is talented but way too inconsistent. His PER and rebounding numbers are majorly dissappointing too.

    And an unhappy bench player Asik is not very effective... 4 pts and 6 rbs

    and majority of his rebounding came and went with the TT project

    getting 1st round picks back is pretty ok given that Asik was drafted in the 2nd round

    Yes it'd make us more talented this season but it'd also make it more difficult for us to improve in the future with the financial position it'd put is in

    Would take Jeff green straight up for Asik. Anything else is gravy.

    Whatever. I relinquished my right to an opinion on these other players. Daryl will tell me how to think.

    If those guy were any good, the Celtics might win half of their games.

    What sucks even more, is that NEITHER of them can play C, and NEITHER of them can defend the perimeter.

    That trade is a huge bag of ass.

    It is debatable if Win Now works in the coming two years or another approach should be taken - still need one or two talents

    Going strong for picks in a very good draft without giving many core players

    After the Kings game I am sold on this. He can play the 5, gives us energy and hustle on the glass at both of those positions. His contract is 2 years, meaning by keeping Lin we will possibly have the cap space to chase LA or Love.

    I think he helps us now, he is averaging 8 boards which we need coming off of the bench right now.

    Also...against Detroit and Miami with big 3's, Jones can play the 3 and guard them when he has more experience.

    I DO NOT want Jeff Green. He does nothing than Jones cannot already do...

    Now if we can get the Bobcats first pick and Biyombo I would jump at that.

    I'd rather have Millsap than Green or Bass.. Millsap is better at playing 4 than Jeff Green is. Green is a SF..
