 Thanks! I love this stuff. Apologies in advance if I suggest something teams are unable to legally do. The financials and trade rules I can find very confusing.

TP for coming up with this and for taking on the challenge of tracking the barrage you'll likely get

my non Celtics early predictions are

Josh Richardson or Jae Crowder will go to the Bucks for Ingles, Hill, and a future first



My less likely blockbuster trade prediction is

Suns get Capella, Collins and a protected 1st

ATL gets Ayton and Crowder
Mavs
Wiz
Hornet

Celtics get Daniel Theis for Danilo Gallinari, Justin Jackson and a 2nd round pick.

Or

Celtics get Mike Muscala using a TPE and 2 second round picks.

Or

Celtics get Willy Hernangomez using a TPE and second round pick.

Or

Celtics get Kelly Olynyk for Danilo Gallinari, Payton Pritchard, Luke Kornet, Justin Jackson and two 2nd round picks.

I think the C’s will try to pickup a wing once buyouts ramp up(Hopefully J.Richardson).

So Ainge drafted Pritchard and traded for Olynyk and knows them both pretty well.  My guess is that we see Olynyk coming to the Celtics for Pritchard, Gallinari, Justin Jackson, and also maybe some 2nds.  Hate to see PP leave but Kelly O knows the Celtics and would be a nice backup to Rob and Al.  He's not perfect but he would help this year more than PP will.  Go Cs!

I would recommend changing the due date to the end of Sunday or Monday because the rumors will fly after that and the folks who are unwilling to lay a bet now will kind of cheat by trying to sneak in their submissions right before the deadline after serious rumors leak/fly, other posters post their bets, etc.

If a tie-breaker is needed, it should go to whoever posted earliest unless they posted on the same day, in which case both should win since we all come on here at different times of the day (and we don’t want east coast bias, or at least us folks out west who generally only post in the evenings, rarely lunchtime or early morning). That would incentivize not trying to piggy-back on others after days of predictions.

But you’re the boss, Roy.

Six submissions at the bottom, but here are the players I think we might trade before the deadline:

My next guess is for Irving going to the Mavs for Dinwiddie, Bertans, and two number 1s.  Man I dislike Irving.

Yeah I could see the Mavs doing that too.  But I don't even know if it would help them that much.
Irving isn't a very good complimentary player.  Him and Luka would fight over who gets the ball.

With the new rumor maybe having Irving going to the Clips, my guess is Irving for Kennard, Jackson, Covington and their 1st.  God I hate Irving.

I'm really not sure you can play Plumlee in the playoffs due to his horrid free throw shooting...
