To Boston: Al Jefferson
To Cleveland: Jared Sullinger, Courtney Lee, two firsts
To Utah: Brendan Bass, Anderson Varejao
This is from my blog, the explanation is there.
http://pickandpopdiaries.blogspot.com/2012/12/northwest-division-round-up-made-up.htmlLet me know what you think of this trade. My only question would be if it is enough for Cleveland to move Varejao, I think the two firsts would help that.
With the Celtics going with the idea of playing KG to start at the four we are in need of a better center to play there. Jefferson is in the last year of his deal and said earlier this year that he wouldn't mind coming back.
It would allow Collins to come off the bench so that we always have a defense oriented big on the floor.
