Bos/Atl/Hou Trade idea

[nickagneta]

Seems there have been a lot of convoluted thre and four team trade scenarios trying to get Omer Asik into town and one that I think makes the most sense is pretty simple:

Boston sends Jeff Green
Boston receives Omer Asik

Atlanta sends Paul Milsap
Atlanta receives Jeff Green

Houston sends Omer Asik
Houston receives Paul Milsap


Its most likely a pick will need to be moved out of Boston to someone and maybe a swap of picks has to be in there somewhere else but the gist of the trade is these three players moving from their old teams to their new ones. Houston gets the stretch PF that can rebound to put next to Howard, Atlanta gets their future SF and Boston gets Asik who if he isn't here long term cuts a year off of Green's contract.

This also helps in the let's get worse to get better scheme of shipping in more defense while shipping out offense for a team already struggling offensively. Boston will probably lose some more games and fall out into the lottery, barely, unless Gerald Wallace somehow recaptures his Charlotte playing days and makes the Celtics an overall better team.
