I just saw a thread on the Celtics forum on Real GM. Apparently Danny Ainge really has fallen in love with Tyreke Evans and would like to draft him. Ford said the scenario that makes the most sense is with Washington, who has been shopping the 5th pick for an all-star caliber wing man .
Ford's trade proposal
Bos Sends: Ray
Wash sends: Songalia, Mike James, Etan Thomas and #5
I don't really like this trade for the C's what do you guys think?
Edit:
After looking deeper into the contract situations of this trade, it doesn't look as bad as I first thought.
If the deal is
Bos sends: Ray
Wash sends: Etan Thomas, Songalia, James and #5 Pick
We would still be getting 13 MIL in expiring contracts back.
Between Etan Thomas, Mike James, Scal and TA we would have about 20 MIL in expiring contracts to trade for a starting SG with
Say if we could get a SG like Mike Miller or Raja bell + # 5 pick for Ray Allen and expiring contracts that looks much better for the C's
Bos 2009- 10 Roster
PG: Rondo / Marbury
SG: Raja / Tyreke Evans (#5 Pick)
SF: PP / Grant Hill( Vet Min)
PF: KG / BBD or McDyess
C: Perk / Songalia
That actually makes our team much more balaced . We would have a starting SG and would have a younger SG on the bench , with lots of potential !
