    This.

    Asik should be paid way more than he gets right now.

    If DH signs and we make all these moves to appease him, we better 3-peat.

    Not just one chip....but 3 in a row! lol

    Newbie trades...sigh. First the guy that was like gaiz look at what i did in trade machine i traded asik for aldridge and now this guy.

    Also, why would atlanta who thinks they might have a shot at paul and howard trade with houston?

    I propose asik for bosh or love.

    How is my statement dumb home boy. Dont disrespect me on this sports forum. You dont agree, just say that. You are not behind the scenes or in the Celtics organization. So it is very stupid of yourself to make such claim when you dont have proof to back up your stance period.

    Calderon only makes sense if you are getting him for less than Lin's salary and waay less than the 11 million he was paid last year. We need an Iguodala type guy if you're sacrificing both Lin and Asik.

    Maybe it'll be a one year deal on Calderon and whoever Asik is flipped for will be a one year contract as well. Clear the books a year early and make the bid for your big three next year.

    If Lin and Asik are traded for Calderon type deals and they end up multiyear deals then we're going to war with a big two and a deep bench. If one year deals then we're going for Melo/lebron/bosh.

    It's better to have a deep bench IMHO but I know where you're coming from.

    Not sure if it was just speculation but didn't someone say recently that Dwight and Josh Smith would like to play together?

    Could it be Asik and Lin for Josh Smith sign and trade?

    If it is, I'd say HELL NO! Smith is not worth max $17m.
