Is Scal still a Celtic trade asset?

[JSD]

With Scal's Bird-Rights, couldn't Danny "Keith Van Horn" him to Denver with a 1st rounder and bring in JR Smith?

Not to say I'm huge on JR Smith but I'm pretty sure this can be done.

We can sign-and-trade Scal, but there are two considerations:

1.  Scal's deal would have to be fully guaranteed for at least one season, for a player Denver probably wouldn't have much interest in; and

2. If we gave Scal more than a 20% raise, he would become a "base year compensation" player, making his contract very difficult to trade.

But yes, theoretically, we could package Scal in a sign-and-trade.

I see, so we should be thinking more along the lines of a $4 million dollar player with 2 years on his contract left and a team looking to shed payroll then.

Maybe this is how Danny is planning on filling that last roster spot.

Was Scal ever a Celtics trade asset?

Considering we couldnt trade him for five years I would say he never was, still isnt, and never will be.

TP took the exact words straight out of my mouth

What would we could possibly get for him? Some team looking to dump salary like the New Orleans Hornets?

I think he is more of a coaching asset than a trade asset.

He needs a desk job or something.

Scal isn't a Celtic trade asset he is a Celtic asset!

I say keep him. I live vicariously through him. I'm an overweight redheaded guy that can't play. You guys are killing me and crushing my dreams all at the same time! lol
