    I bet Durant follows suit. Would make his path to the finals much easier.

    But the Celtics no longer have the mighty Evan Turner.

    If this is Boston's big move, does this put them ahead of Cleveland?

    Which I don't see happening.

    Durant stays in OKC and decides with Westbrook next summer, Butler stays in Chicago and gets to be the man.

    If Boston can get Durant they are going to be scary? That's if any of their other 800 draft picks work out. Brown was one of the most up and down player in college basketball.

    Yeah, we will gladly take Olynyk (just so @MickZagger can cream his jeans) and Terry Rozier/RJ Hunter off your hands Boston.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    They need to make one more big move, consolidating some of their depth into a star player. That wouldn't put them ahead of Cleveland, but could make them a real threat.

    I wonder if Cleveland will move Love for a more defensive frontcourt player, I still think a straight across of Love-Millsap would benefit both teams. A frontcourt of LBJ/Millsap/Thompson is NASTY.

    Most teams would rather have Mike Love than Kevin Love at this point.
