here's what i think could definitely jumpstart the process.. Because i believe that Minn wants to win now just as bad as they want to build for the future. Since they've reportedly already turned down the Wiggins-Bennet-First round offer from Cleveland. The celtics can definitely take advantage of this.



i know the trade "failed" but i left just enough for Wiggin's upcoming contract (~5-6m/year).

I was thinking of a similar idea where we land Bennett  in the love sweeps.
Think you swap out sully for green. ( greens not perfect but he is serviceable and adding Bennett with out clearing an existing pf just adds problems.)
We would have to send out a lot of expiring/non guarunteed deals to make this work but Bennett has showed up this summer and looks ready to make an impact.
Also, don't think we can get Dieng out of the deal, would be a coup if we did.

I think we really need to get a young center now. big men take longer to develop and in rebuilding you need to start with big men. So I am all for getting deing we may have to give up a pick though. I would just do clevland pick and philly pick for deing. Our TPE we got from wasington can absorb his contract.

Wiggins will be making roughly 5.4 million, I believe.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

There is no way Minnesota gives up Deing in this deal.
