So would you do this type of trade ?

Hield and AB or Smart for Butler ?

 
At this point since I don't think Durant is coming to Boston, and I don't want Horford or Howard on max contracts , I would stay patient and keep building this thing .

We still have the nets picks for 2 more years to make deals , and plenty of cap space in the next 2 years when younger free agents become available .

That doesn't work because the salaries don't match.  Next poll...

#3 and AB maybe.

#3 and Smart? I'd laugh at that one if I were Danny.

They don't need to. We are under the cap.

I vote no on all 3.  Jimmy Butler is super overrated.  I wouldn't trade any of them for premium-brand Ricky Davis.

I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

I'd be more likely to trade AB......however.....I'd play a dirty trick on Marcus Smart.


I'd start Rozier over Smart and tell him we would probably limit his minutes pretty severely till he can hit 40%, 33%, and 75%.

Or he can go work on it in the D League.

Smart has got to have the fear of God put in him over his offensive "ability"

Not trading Smart. 3 + AB feels a bit like an overpay, but it might be necessary.

No because we need a BIG in order to make a real leap over all the other teams in the EC. Get Cousins.

I'd like to also look at signing Allen Crabbe, but he is a RFA. I think in the right system AC could make a big impact with his insane shooting and defense.....plus he's got length and may be a better solution if we make a decision about Smart/Avery or both.

Too much.

And I really want to see Jimmy Butler in green.

The guy we take 3rd might end up better than Butler.  Same with Smart.
