say we land Love for a package of  top 5 pick this year, next years pick and Sully.

Who do you go after with that TPE we got from the PP trade  ?

I think it would be imperative to have a defensive center to cover for Love's lack of defense

Asik, Gortat, Varajeao , Henson, Sanders  would be at the top of my list for Centers

Afflalo, Kevin Martin  are the only names that come to mind for SG's we can us the TPE for, but if we can't get Afflalo,I would rather just keep Bradley .

of course we would likely have to use a draft pick to add to the TPE to get a deal done.

PG: Rondo             /  ?
SG: Bradley           /  ?
SF: Green              /  Wallace
PF: Love                /  Bass
 C: Asik or Gortat   / KO

That roster would win 50 + games in the East, and possibly top 3 seed .  To be a true contender, I believe we have to upgrade at SG or SF .

What would you do with the TPE if we land Love ?

I like the line up, but I don't want Bradley. We need a clear cut 2nd option, and Bradley/Green isn't it.

I would like us to go try to go after Gordon/Martin or Stephenson.

I would very much like this one. TP

Although, I am hoping we could have someone more consistent at the 3 instead of Green (Melo is a dream) and maybe give up Bass, Kelly at 4, and a better defensive big at 5.

I would also like to get rid of Bass, don't get me wrong, I love Bass, but I still think this team isn't fully a contender yet. I would like to trade Bass for a young big (Thomas Robinson or similar), cheaper and younger, but roughly the same player.

In an ideal world, you use the TPE on Asik and then move Bogans + other non-guaranteed deals for Afflalo.  The question is how many picks it would take.

We all had been hoping that Jeff Green was going to be our savior, our #1 option on offense, our next Paul Pierce.  He's shown that he clearly is not that player.

Could he potentially thrive as a role player?  A 3rd/4th option who can focus on being a defensive stopper on the perimeter?  I've never even really thought about that situation until now.

Really? I thought that was the premise that Jeff Green was hoping to steer out of this year, which led to numerous failed attempts/experiments? A 2nd/3rd best player that should have emerged as the go to scorer, but eventually couldn't?

I think Green is the perfect 3rd guy. If anything I think Parsons is overrated, and the users here really overrate him also. If he was getting paid Jeff Green money, we wouldn't be that impressed.
