boston is clearing cap, bayless is on a expiring deal $3.1mill, lee is on contract until 2016 $5.6mill
Looking like Boston is trying to move someone...they have three legit PGs now...Is Rajon on his way out?
Could be. Either way, this is a grand slam for the Celtics. I don't understand why the Grizzlies would do it. This seems bad for them in every way but obviously other moves are planned.
So rumor is we are sending Asik to Minnesota now with a third team having to be involved. Wonder who the third team would be? http://****************/articles/532656/20140103/nikola-pekovic-omer-asik.htm#.Usnkw_RDv6s
lol this article is from 3 days ago and quotes clutchfans as the source of the rumor! i dont know why the website is censored so i put spaces in the url
The website is censored because the "International Business Times" is the opposite of a reputable source
You are reading way too much into this. Bayless sucks. This is a Courtney Lee salary dump, and that's all. Bayless' contract expires at the end of the season, that's all you need to know. Good job, Danny Ainge. We may see this turn into a three-way, with Asik winding up in a Celtics uniform. Stay tuned.
Its probably Poopsworld. Clutch did that on purpose, shows you how much he thinks of them and their articles.
Wrong question. Did the Celts make a Bayless trade decision based on not having Rondo in the near future?
