    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Word spread around the NBA grapevine quickly Monday that the Celtics had told the 76ers they were not willing to part with the 21-year-old big man in an Iverson trade.

    He goes on to say that Ainge only had one conversation with the 76ers about Iverson.

    So does this mean Gerald Green is available?

    If both Gerald Green and Al Jefferson are untouchable, then I don't see a potential deal for Iverson.

    According to Ainge, who was on WEEI last night, nobody's untouchable, but Pierce, and he also said that he only talked with Philly one time, and they wanted too much (although not in as many words), and the C's moved on. He said he would be surprised if Minny got him, and doubly surprised if someone in the east ended up with him.

    All that said, he also didn't rule out a three team deal with any number of squads. When Glen Ordway asked him if he felt pressure because there were 12 or 13 other teams that wanted to negotiate too, Ainge scoffed at the idea of more than a handful of teams seriously involved in talks.

    He also called the chances of the C's getting AI "slim."
