 The worst mistake Ainge has made by far in recent years was taking the defensive machine that is Kelly, and passing on a true freak of nature at a position we are painfully lacking.

Milwaukee laughs heartily before hanging up.

That's a no-brainer for us but the Bucks would never do it.

i find it hard to take a thread about acquiring a player very seriously when the OP doesnt show an ability to even provide the name of that player.  :P

If the Brooklyn 1st became the #1 pick, it wouldn't take much more to land Giannis, if at all more. But until then, you'd probably have to include Smart and a good-looking pick.


Draft: 8 first rounders in next 5 years.

Cap space: $24 mil.

Wait. Every pick minus Brooklyns? Well if that's the deal why stop there? Heck add Harden or Curry or some other unattainable guy for that

No thanks.

As much as I like Greek Freak, I believe those picks could develop into something a lot bigger than him - whether it's a trade package that Danny builds or whether it's our actual next home-grown drafted Superstar.

Our future is in those picks, and will set us up for the next 15 or so years. Danny was shrewd, wise and smart to get them.

They are much bigger than Greek Freak, IMO.

The original proposed trade doesn't include any of the Brooklyn picks.  It was just Kelly, the Celtics 2016 (likely mid-1st), Dallas 2016 (likely mid-1st) and Minny 2016 (likely turns into two 2nds) for Giannis.  That's an obvious yes from our standpoint and an obvious no from the Bucks.

Oh, I apologize then, if that were the case.

MIL says no in this case, then.

 Really my point is Danny really screwed us on the Olynyk pick. We could have had him. Now we would have to trade the farm for him. Really too bad.

When Ainge traded up, I thought for sure that it was to take Giannis.  So I thought Ainge blew it from the start.  Especially when I heard him call Olynyk a good complementary, role player in an interview after the draft.  Our rebuild would look a lot better if we had Giannis. 

However Ainge wasn't the only one to blow it.  Hinkie's plan was to go all out to get a star and yet he took MCW over Giannis.
