Celtics not pursuing Josh Smith

really wouldn't mind having Smith here, I like him alot. Wouldn't trade any of our dudes except Baby and Bradley for him though.

It kinda works for cap flexibility considering he's got a year left. I just don't see how it can work.

could jeff green be traded only after july 1st since he is restricted ? if so would he be traded with last year's salary since he has a BYC ? if that's the case Green and JO salaries are enough to get Smith,this years first pick added too in return hawks send us their 2nd round pick. we don't need to give bradley away.

Trading a green package for a more expensive Josh smith isn't really gaining anything though. Smith is a better player, but not worth the money or the trouble. Too inconsistent.

I would LOVE having him on our team, and I think Rondo would as well. Some of you forget/don't know that Rondo and Smith are best buddies and that they played in the same high school team, so there wouldn't be any chemistry problems IMO.
But I would not trade Green and Baby for him. Baby had a bad second half of the season, but when he's playing like he knows best, he is worth more than Green or Smith.
