Why would Boston do any sign and trade for Kemba when they have cap space?
Why would the Rockets start two bigs who cannot shoot?
Why?
Without regard to a specific trade, if the Celtics were able to work out a S&T with Horford’s new team, they could use his new salary in a 3-way trade in which they acquired Walker. This would allow them to use the MLE and BAE instead of the room exception, as well as preserve Bird rights to Rozier and Morris. If it took a second rounder going to each of those teams, it could be worth it in terms of getting starter-level taken at the 4 and/or 5 via those exceptions..
