we swap PGs and PFs and Love gets a fresh start (and perhaps a chance to play with KG/Pierce)

TWolves probably get the short end on this

I could see Rondo, Sully, and Bradley plus a protected 1st rounder getting this done, but not for Lee. I would still do it though.

  • A true Celtic plays with heart.

I'd honestly like to see how Sully develops... If anything they won't do it for just Lee. Trading away two of their franchise players, even if the other one wants to leave.

Nowhere near enough value for Minnesota. Need a 2nd guy at Rondo's level for Minnesota to give up on both K-Love and Ricky Rubio.

  I think that when PP and KG leave we'd be left with more or less a downgraded version of Minny's current roster, not something I'd be thrilled with watching over the long haul. Still a much better deal than the Cousins/Evans plans, because when I think of rooting for basically the Kings with Jeff Green added I don't get all that excited.

Yeah I don't see Minny doing this.

Kevin Love is their franchise player and Rondo, Sullinger and Lee is not nearly enough value in return.

I wish though.

Minnesota won't do it, but I like the deal for the Celtics - even more so if Bradley is involved.

Not sure it's as likely as a Kings deal, but I'd be pleased with either. Not short-sighted enough here to bring a person's former uniform with them in a deal. If they're young and can help, they're welcome to wear the Green, as far as I'm concerned.

Argh I didn't see that you included Rubio in your post, so everything I wrote is now stupid.
