BOS sends: Jeff Green, Fab Melo, 2013 First Rounder
BOS receives: Derrick Williams
MIN sends: Derrick Williams, JJ Baea
MIN receives: Jeff Green, Fab Melo
CLE receives: JJ Barea, 2013 First Rounder
Derrick Williams has been getting garbage minutes this season, and seems to not fit in their system. But, without a third team, Boston couldn't get it done by shipping out Green. Minnesota gets the player they want Williams to be in Green, and a raw center in Fab Melo, and also gets rid of a useless player (Once Rubio returns). Cleveland gets a pick and a backup PG, and facilitates the trade (They're far under the cap)
Unless I'm perhaps undervaluing Williams? To me it seems like hes a good target. Young, unproven, talented player who isn't getting minutes with his team. MIN could value him highly though, he was the 2nd overall pick 2 years ago.

Green and Williams are pretty much the same player ...

Except Williams is 5 years younger and has way more upside. He has the potential we all want JG to have. |

Would've done it before Sullinger. Now, it's lateral talent wise (but likely not going forward), and a step back in fit.
Lee, Green, Melo for Williams, Stiesma (still can't spell his name), signing Pietrus afterwards, that I can get behind.

Except Derrick Williams can't defend the 3. That's a big deal for us right now. |

Jeff Green has WAY WAY more potential than Derrick Williams and is a lot better right now regardless.

I think Green is likely better now, but I disagree strongly about him having better potential. |

Nope, green is a better perimeter defender, and has made the change from college to nba, unlike Williams
And we're also giving up a decent defensive prospect, and a draft pick for an unproven player
No.

Good idea. The problem is we need someone to defend Lebron in the playoffs- and Melo and Joe Johnson/Gerald Wallace and the the elite SF's and tall SG's.
That's the only problem I have.
I mean Green's been inconsistent on offense but his 1v1 defense has been pretty decent and he doesn't get credit for it.
Not a bad trade idea.
I'd also argue that Williams has more potential than Green, much more at this point in time.

"Game 4: 4 minutes 28 seconds 87-81
Game 5:2 minutes 28 seconds 84-81
These are scores in the 4th period and time left in Games 4 and 5 in 2011 versus the Heat. The Celtics were ahead in both games and Rondo was hurt, playing with one arm." -Pearl 131 So close, yet so far.

Interesting point. All the crap Green gets is for his poor offensive production. Not many people have noticed his decent 1 on 1 defense. |
