    Neither trade is realistic.

    Lol absolutely not. Just for fun. I admire how the Celtics front office set themselves up.

    How about Nurk, Napier, Vonleh and Leonard for Fournier and Gordon?

    I'd love to get Fournier but he'll probably cost to much. Outside of our main 3 core guys teams can probably offer better than we can.

    A trade will only get us so far. We need a coaching change. No doubt about it.

    Yeah Stotts isn’t getting the best out of all this amazing talent we have.

    For 121 million dollars, every player on this team ought to have backstory worthy of Shakespeare.

    Parker is a better passer than I realized. I refuse to get any hopes up that we have any chance to get him. Just need to settle into my "we are going to get a solid bench player" mentality.

    I just read some article talking about the possibility of landing Tyson Chandler..... and I hope to God that we don't do something so stupid as bringing in an old timer with a fat contract for us to absorb. We have an excellent core now. I think we are only one or possibly two pieces away from being elite.

    I still have doubts about whether Nurk is the man for that future. He just doesn't seem to have that mannup, dominate, quality that will hold everyone else together when it's suck it up and get the win time.

    That's both the first CJ trade AND the first Nurk trade that have made a lick of sense! Well done!

    Thank you sir!

    These trades get rid of our bad contracts (Harkless/Lennard/Turner all gone) and Nurkic summer max request becomes Clippers problem. Moreover, we become better balanced.....and have Dallas’ 1st rounder in a swap of our own!

    Dame (keep Napier!)
    Matthews
    Barnes
    Aminu
    Jordan (keep Collins!)
