A source told NBAonNBC.com that Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge was working to complete a deal to bring Cousins to the Celtics by the end of Sunday night. Jeff Green, Jason Terry, Jared Sullinger and Courtney Lee have been packaged in an offer for Cousins, the website reports. The inclusion of Avery Bradley appears to be a sticking point.

I'm not sure but I don't think Green can be traded until 15th (or is it Bass?).

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

I don't recall seeing them ever break any actual trade news.   Does this rumor actually have legs or is it a bunch of nonsense?

Well the consensus seems to be it is most likely a pile of nonsense.

If they are claiming the trade involves Bass and Green and could be done by "monday", then it absolutely is nonsense. 

The title of this thread should be changed to "Nonsensical Wishful Thinking:  Bogus Rumor about Cousins being a Celtic on Monday"

There are really 3 threads about this right now.  Maybe they can be combined?
