I am hearing chatter about blowing up the team from

I would go with option 2 for now (I like the Biyombo trade idea) while waiting for a better opportunity to make itself available to pursue option 1 since nobody really seems available right now that is capable of drastically changing team's outlook.
I want to trade Olynyk in near future. Before trade deadline. I am not interested in keeping Olynyk here. I would like Ainge to cash in on his trade value sooner rather than later before it peters out. I want to see Ainge look for starting caliber center and starting two guard. Do not consider Olynyk or Bradley part of Celtics future. Happy to trade Smart in move for high quality player / prospect at either SG or C position.

I think number two. I'm assuming the cost of obtaining young prospects is Rondo, Green, Bass, and or Thornton which I'm fine with.Trading for younger players presumably also makes us worse which helps to improve the C's through the draft.
I agree to trading everyone away and focus on prospects setting a foundation.
So here is a trade between charlotte and boston.
Boston gives up:jeff green
Boston gets: vonleh and biyombo
charlotte:gives up:vonleh and biyombo
charlotte: gets:jeff green
why Charlotte
they are panicking about losing a bunch of games recently. Jeff green is a great steady veteran that can help them get a grip. They are giving up some big men for him. they have a logjam in pf and center so they can get rid of him. Noah vonleh is unknown. He has barley played in the nba and so he is a investment and is more long term which is what the celtics are looking for. Meanwhile charlotte really wants to win.
Why boston
well we are rebuilding this give playing time for our younger players and gives us new prospects
2nd trade
Boston and Minnesota
Boston gets: gorgui deing
Boston gives up: biyambo and olynyk
Minnesota gives up: gorgui deing
Minnesota gets: biyambo and olynyk
why Minnesota
they need a stretch four to play along with pekovic. They would struggle with not having a rim protector with deing gone. That is where biyambo comes in.He is a great rim but not a great starter. So he fits perfectly in their system. By playing on the bench, he lets the timberwolves have their scoring front court and he can come in and swat the balls like fly's.
Why boston
well It gets us our future star center in deing. Some people are starting to give up on olynyk. I think olynyk is great but he does not fit the celtics defense first mind set. These trades give the celtics a starting line up of
rondo
bradley
turner
sully
deing
while getting an amazing untaped potential player in 19 year old noah vonleh.
Vonleh can take 15 minuets or so. It gives bass some playing time so we can show case him off and trade him.
Another good thing about this trade is it helps clear cap room,gives rookies morel laying time and helps us tank. With our best player this season so far gone, this can give playing time to young.
So what do you think?
