    I''d rather keep Asik and let his ass rot on the bench then get a lowball ass deal like that

    Still can't imagine Morey taking on Lee's contract. Just not his style.

    If we trade one and gets two back, someone has to be cut? No?

    We will have a log jam of combo backup SG/SF and mini PF, and not addressing the glaring need for a real 4
    Garcia, Lee, Bass, O, Jones

    Why? :(

    I refuse to believe.

    You are assuming that Rondo is not dealt.

    The Celtics are playing above their talent at this point, and Ainge knows that the Celtics are not in a position to contend anytime soon.

    That #1 (depending on the specifics) could be key to us getting a player we really want closer to the deadline. The league has shifted in just the last year, #1 picks hold more value that before. The depth of this draft, the new CBA and the greater dependence on analytics all have increased the value of the #1 pick.

    This is really not that different than the Lowry deal.

    2014 first round pick is nice. Lee and Bass are gross.

    he was great until he choked, admittedly.

    one play does not a career make.

    #Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said he has not been told about any potential trades (such as the Omer Asik deal) from Danny Ainge. #NBA

    So how are Bass and Lee "flippable" in Feb?

    Bass is gawbage.

    Lee is overrated (here).

    The pick is going to be in the 20's...

    Terrible trade if it goes down.

    Conspiracy: This leak is to make the mystery 3rd team cave and jump into the bigger deal.

    Blame that a-hole Asik for hurting Morey's bargaining power so much.

    Everybody chill out.

    Snagging Lee makes Lin more expendable.

    We will trade Jones, Lin and the pick for a stud at the deadline

    Deals usually don't go down as suggested.

    I doubt it ends up being Bass+Lee+1st rounder.

    We do not want Bass, so maybe Avery+Lee+1st rounder for Asik+Garcia?
