I think we've got the leverage.  Danny isn't trading for today, so it's only 1 of many possible ways to approach the future.  If Clips think KG is the 'ticket' to a championship (which they should), then Danny is in the driver's seat. 

Jordan, Bledsoe and Odom (exp) for KG, Bass and Wilcox.

Bledsoe looking pretty good right now.

Bledsoe is an excellent player, but what would we do with him? He's a FA at the end of this season. Either we pay him and trade Rondo or we would rent him for the rest of this season at the cost of KG, which basically means our season would be completely done because we are the worst team in the league when KG sits.

Get Eric now and move him or Rondo next season as part of a package for a top 10 player or top 5 SF.

LeBron. KD, and Melo are going no where. We already have Pierce and Gay just got traded.

I doubt you can move Bledsoe or Rondo coming off knee surgery for a top 10 guy next season.

No thanks.

I'm not sold on the Bledsoe hype. He doesn't do it for me. Say we trade KG. I feel that Bledsoe is just a mediocre fill in that becomes just a trade asset for us in the offseason.

Eric Bledsoe is a backup Pg in this leauge. He is not that great if we got that package for KG i would throw up.

Butler is a ditry punk and an average starter in this league. Bledsoe is a good young player but he's at the backup PG level now.

None of them or even both of them are worth even half KG is worth. Not even if they put Jordan in the deal.
When you lose, the easy part is to see who gives up. Giving up is very simple. You basically take your stuff and walk away. To continue to work and to continue to compete is one of the most difficult things, especially when you really don't have anything - KG

Why are the clippers after KG instead of Pierce? They already have Griffin and Jordan, along with Odom. They need a SF much more imo.

No he's not. He put up an all-star type stat line starting today. It's not the first time he's done it either. The only reason he's not a full time starter yet is that he's on the same team with CP3.

Just to make sure I'm clear on this, I thought the package was for Butler and Bledsoe, not Jordan and Bledsoe. Not sure where all this Jordan talk is coming from. Someone clue me in if I missed something. That said Butler is an underrated offensive player who going into next year will be on a "pay for play" expiring deal and Bledsoe is an excellent backup pg with an great defensive pedigree. Would love to see him and Bradley in the backcourt. He pretty much killed us today I know that. I'm not saying I'm ready to move KG but that's a haul I could definitely live with.
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity...

I'd certainly do Jordan and Bledsoe for KG. That would be a great deal for the celtics.

I think it's up to KG. If he wants to move on, Bledsoe looks like a solid return

He looks like he's relishing this Last Stand.

We can wait until the deadline. No reason for either team to do it before

If Bledsoe was our trade chip, I do think we could use him to trade up into Nerlens Noel territory

I would be shocked if KG went along with this ... he is more into what being a celtic is all about, (Celtic Pride, fans, Bill Russell, tradition, etc.), than almost anyone who has played since the Bird era.

I would also seriously consider not watching anymore.
