Maybe (though I'm not sold on that). Plus, we'd still be very limited on what we could take back, as a package of Powe or BBD plus Giddens would only be worth about 2 million dollars in salary. So whoever would be coming here, couldn't make too much money. And I'm thinking opposing teams aren't going to be giving away talented players making 2 million a year for BBD and Giddens.
Tony Allen, Eddie House (both sign and trades) or Scalabrine could be involved.
IMHO there are a number of veterans with short contracts in the 2-6 million-dollar range who could be attractive to Ainge, including Anthony Parker, Desmond Mason, Joe Smith, ZaZa Pachulia, Eddie Jones, Steve Francis, Damon Stoudamire, Chucky Atkins, Steve Blake, Donyell Marshall, Jason Collins, Jarron Collins, Brevin Knight, Trevor Ariza... the list goes on.
