From Adam Himmelsbach: "Danny Ainge on CSNNE on response to when Jaylen comes up in trade talks: 'Very close to as soon as his name gets on there, we hang up'"

Great news!

great news indeed but I'm kinda worried about Smart...I'm one of the "cannot trade Smart" train, but if this is true, I think in a Paul George deal, he would be moved...

In my opinion, I would be moving Bradley/Crowder first

I would say Bradley, Crowder, and even Rozier would be moved first.

Ainge and Stevens seem to love Smart's versatility.

Versatility to flop and occasionally hit the rim when he shoots. I cannot wait till he's gone 🙄.

yea, not a knock on Bradley, i love the dude but he's due for a big payday soon while Smart can still be retained for cheaper, and I love how Smart competes night in and night out...his offensive may be bad but I love his defense, his defense doesn't show up in the stat sheet and makes game winning plays constantly...I LOVE this dude!

I love Smart too, but I'm not completely convinced he can be retained for cheaper.  Unlike Olynyk last summer, I do think that they'll try to extend him.  If they can't reach an agreement, he might become tradeable rather quickly.

I love Bradley as well, but I want him to get a big payday. He's due.

You think so?

Smart is restricted and an awful shooter while AB can hit 3s, is unrestricted and in his prime.

I bet Bradley's contract approaches 26-27 mil a year. I don't see Smarts pushing past 16 or 17 mil

I mean he hasn't been traded yet and there's been plenty of opportunity, so it seems like Ainge really does value him.

Which is why we should trade Bradley.  The luxury tax will be a real issue by 2018.
