    Report: Celtics Pursuing Kristaps Porzingis Trade
    The Boston Celtics are reportedly pursuing an opt-in and trade with the Washington Wizards for the former Knicks star.

    ShamsCharania

    Sources: Wizards, Celtics and Clippers are in strong talks on a trade that would send Kristaps Porzingis to Boston, Marcus Morris and draft compensation to Washington and Malcolm Brogdon to Los Angeles. Sides are still working through details and Porzingis’ $36M player option.

    I disagree. Dame can ask out, but we don't have to take garbage for him. We would be better if he (rather uncharacteristically) sat out and we ate his contract.

    I like that quite a bit for Boston if it happens.

    Not giving up a whole lot and only committed for a year to Kristaps if he runs into injury issues again.

    Hopefully Joe steals some of Unseld's stuff that he ran with Porzingis and Beal screening for eachother. There is not as natural of a two-man game fit on Boston, but I think you can run a lot of the same pin down re-screen into a flare type stuff with the Jay's and Derrick White.

    Just a really good scheme and personnel fit overall. Joe likes to run five out primarily on offense and drop on d with his bigs.

    I am saying that if we trade Dame, we get an enormous haul for him, not garbage.

    somewhere in between I think, leaning more to the lower side IMO, it's that contract

    I just don't think that's going to be the case. I think we might tell Dame that we're not going to be forced to deal him to one place, but we would accept a list of teams that he wants and then try to work out a deal with one of those teams. I'm just saying that if Dame went to Joe and said "it's Miami." I get this feeling that Joe would do it. I think they respect Dame and we're right back in the Otis Thorpe scenario.

    Or the Sharif Abdur Rahim and Theo Ratliff senario.

    If we strike out do we offer Nurk/Nas for Ayton? They have zero bench and could use multiple players.

    Any chance we can land three #1 picks in Simmons, Zion, and Ayton!
