2 trades that have been mentioned previously:

Green/Fav for MKG/Biyombo

And

Rondo/Wallace/Babb/Pressey for Derrick Williams/McLemore/Filler (Outlaw, Terry, Evans) and a pick


Would give us:

Smart. Bradley. Terry
McLemore. Thornton. Outlaw
Turner.  MKG. Young
Williams. Sullinger. Bass. Evans
Zeller.  Olynyk. Biyombo

a bunch of guys in their last year:  Williams, Terry, Outlaw, Evans, Anthony, Bass, Thornton

Three former 2nd overall picks:  Turner, Williams, MKG

We could sign Okafor and trade Johnson/2nd round pick for Thabeet to get two more 2nd overall picks.  Ok we are already over 15 so that won't work.  Cut Evans.

Then we would be a lock to sign Aldridge in 2015 and Durant in 2016.  Both are former 2nd overall picks.


Ok most of that is joking, but if we actually did those trades we would be loaded with young players , future picks , and no bad contracts after this year.  Wouldn't be a bad way to get rid of Wallace, salvage something for Green and Rondo, and start over

Err I don't want to see Derrick Williams, Evan Turner and Ben Mclemore on the Celtics team at the same time.

We'd suck, but suck without direction after your proposed trades
