Yes....as long as it didn't cost any assets that the Pelicans might want.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

I’ve always thought he would be a great fit here. Just a really good player who would fit in Brad’s system nicely.

We couldn’t trade for him, but could be a great buyout candidate if it got to that.

You're right, we would have move more salary. Baynes and Rozier probably gets it done no?

Really don't like the idea of moving Baynes tho.

Feel free to suggest better trades!

That would be silly giving up Rozier for a rental of Vuc...

and even sillier to also throw in your best low-post defender for a low-post defensive liability.

I feel out of all the guys that would be available that Vucevic would be the best fit on this team.

He would bring the size and rebounding we sorely need and would help space the floor. I think Horford would benefit greatly by having someone like Vucevic on the floor as he can go back to being the power forward with Morris coming off the bench.

Baynes can come off the bench as well.

Rozier wont get the money he thinks he deserves as a celtic, it would be absolutely for danny to offer him anything over 7 mill a year the way he has performed this season.

So if I can have part of a season with the opportunity to resign someone who is producing over someone who is not, but in the same situation...then sign me up

I'd love Vucevic, but I'm just not sure what we'd have to send out in salary to acquire him. Also, if we got him, do we acquire his Bird Rights too?

I do believe so.

Just to further add to my point about Vucevic, it be nice to have a good post-up player on the court to complement all the perimeter scoring.

Also Kyrie (among others) will be able to drive to the basket more, knowing there's a big in Vucevic he can either pass it to or be there to gather the rebound.

Baynes, Yabu, and Rozier might work if Orlando is interested in trying out Rozier for the rest of the year and deciding if he’d be a good fit at the Pg going forward. 

From the Celtics perspective, they would have to find a decent back up point guard.  Maybe Wannamaker ?

I’d do that deal in a heartbeat.

Your concerns about PG depth are pretty legit though. If Wanamaker could step up then maybe a guy like Ramon Sessions (I don’t know if he’s super washed up / hurt, but he’s always seemed solid) as our 3rd string guard
