    I doubt it was a conversation that got very far, but I’m sure there are some players they would trade Green for if they became available. That said, I don’t think Jaylen Brown is one of those players.

    Sane Rockets fans should not have an issue with this. Stone said that his job is to trade stuff for better stuff.

    Stop the presses! Rox may be willing to include an underwhelming young player to get a star?! Shocker!

    More interesting tidbit is that Nurse was never considered. I am thinking he probably is gonna take his time, and the Rockets needed to make a move right away. Nurse is the only one I thought may be better than Udoka, but if he was not really motivated, I am fine with this Udoka dude...

    Meh, not that Jalen for Jaylen is out of the question.....

    But I doubt it is major news, I doubt they discuss trades right in the thick of the Playoffs.

    That is not what Udoka meant by saying.

    Expedite the forking process!!!!

    A Jalen Green for Jaylen Brown trade would be quite colorful.

    Not surprising to me - the only way we get Brown is with Jalen, Jabari, or free agency.

    If he's available, the Rockets won't be the only suitors.

    Let's just give them KPJ instead. KPJ's stans here say he is better. So the other side should be delighted.

    Jalen will be interesting if rumors abound, as in more legit than Levis #1 last night, as to perceived/real? value (outside the ToyShop).

    So the point of these 3 years of sucking was to get top draft picks to trade for co-stars with Harden? LOL.

    Only do this deal if Jaylen Brown changes last name to Red.

    Jalen Green Celtics jersey would be the top selling jersey after Michael Jordan.

    :D

    However, they also have enlightened minds beyond NBA scouts, so they wouldn't expect the Boston Celtics to be able to see what they do.

    Well I was worried after seeing some tweets but reading the context provided some relief.

    I personally wouldn't be too fond of a Green for Brown trade and I've been a big Brown supporter for years. Need them as a tandem.

    “My basketball ops got maybe a little weak at the end and I just said, “We’re doing this. We are going to make the change. We’re going to go after it and roll the dice. We’re going to find that 5 percent.”

    “The one thing I believe you do in business, and you do in basketball, is you never sit still. You always keep it exciting. Not only is it exciting that we’re a better team, but it’s exciting for the fans. I owe it to them to give them the best opportunity to win a championship every year.”
