    I also post on an israeli forum about basketball and I asked Celtic fans if they would make this trade:

    Aminu and Davis
    For
    Kelly Olynyk

    They seem to be very open to this idea.

    What do you think?

    If I'm a Celtics fan I'd jump on that trade...Aminu and Davis are way more valuable to me ...now I'd trade Meyers straight across for Olynyk

    No way.

    Shouldn't even be a thought. Not even close to a fair trade for us.

    Getting Olynyk on the Blazers would be like winning a championship for Zags! His avatar would finally be in fashion

    KO is in the last year of his contract. He is rock solid, but definitely not a star. We've got plenty with that description.

    :smiley-crazy:

    :smiley-puke:

    I wouldn't do that trade for either of them straight up. Both of them are are better than Olynyk....

    I like him very much. It would be a consolidation trade, would sort out the rotation. He is not really a great inside scorer (plays away from the basket on offense) but his defense and his basketball IQ make him a great player

    Straight across for Leonard? I'd do that without caring about him being in a contract year.

    I think Ed Davis with one year experience in Stotts' system, plus one year developing chemistry with the team makes him a much better asset than Olynyk could ever hope to be coming in cold.

    And to think I was going to ask you if you wanted to go to a game, but how the hell will you be able to sit next to me with Leonard's Jersey on and him on the court putting down 20/10?
