Boston Celtics Dame Trade ideas and rumors

Really?

You would say no to a lineup of Dame/Shaedon/Brown/Grant/Nurk?

I love Scoot but Brown is an all nba caliber wing. I dunno how long Scoot would take to reach that ceiling.

 

I stated in my post to assume the premise that Brown agrees to an extension in Portland in either scenario.

Edit: think i misread your post. Guess you're referring to Scoot here wanting to be in POR.

 

That comment was a joke on the Scoot vs Dame going out, based on what we always said about keeping Dame... because Scoot wants to be here. I just have to #BAM it again. @THE HCP will enjoy it. Or not.

 

I would. I don't think that team would win a title. Dame has maybe 3-4 years left at a high level.

 

It's just funny, i think 99% of this forum would have chosen to trade 3 + Ant in a heartbeat like 3 weeks ago.

 

Because it would have worked with Dame wanting to be here. That's no longer an option. Even if he tells you he is willing to stay now, there is a grain of doubt we did not have before.

 

Because there was no guarantee that Scoot drops. There was a high chance that he would drop, but I would trade Miller/Simons for Brown.

But also, I never in a million years would have expected Dame to go scorched earth like he has. That has also changed my opinion on the matter.

 

I suppose these are both the case. Just interesting how quickly all this has changed.

Also sidebar, Jaylen and Scoot both have the same hometown. Jaylen once called Scoot the best prospect he's ever seen. I think he would love to play here with him.

 

If Boston would do Dame for Brown, would you keep Brown or would you flip him?

 

Keep him, and move Ant + Nurk for a better C like Ayton.

 

Ooh, I am on board for that.

 

This is assuming that Brown is willing to re-sign, right?

 

You posed a very interesting hypothetical, thanks. I also look at that lineup, it's lack of depth, etc. and wonder is that team higher than fifth or sixth seed in the West? Could that team get out of the first round? After the manner in which this team has underachieved (even before the tanking) the last two years, it's possible that I am even overselling that roster.

There are absolutely no guarantees that the rebuild route (trading Dame for Jaylen/flipping Jaylen for younger assets) would result in a better longterm outcome, but I would certainly feel like there would be more hope going that route.

 

To POR:
Brown, Ayton, Brogdan, pick(s) from Bos.

To BOS:
Dame, Payne

To PHX:
Nurk, Keldon Johnson

To SA:
Simons

We have:
Scoot / Brogdan
Sharpe / Thybulle
Brown / Nas
Grant / Murray
Ayton / ?

 

I am buying a league pass to see that team.

 

Yes. And i think he would. He loves Scoot.

 

Is this legit? I don't see anything from Shams...

 

LOL. Somehow, I think Shams would probably tweet something like this if it was real.

 

i wish. don't think it is however

 

There is so much fake shit out there.
