Boston Contemplated Davis For Moon Deal

[JSD]

Three league sources close to negotiations confirmed that the Celtics explored a now-dead sign-and-trade deal that would have sent Glen Davis to Miami in exchange for restricted free agent Jamario Moon.

Because both players fall into the base year compensation category, making any trade difficult to complete, the idea didn't materialize.

I would be interested in the pieces they were thinking of using to make things work.

I don't like the idea of trading Davis for Moon.

Too bad he isn't willing to take the 2 year, LLE.

I believe if we offered Bill Walker for their Shaun Livingston exception, that Miami would be open to not matching. 

I don't see how we can do a dual BYC type deal.

That's strange I would have thought both Boston and Miami would have known about their players contracts prior to ' discussing ' this trade.

Yep -- there was probably way more discussion on celticsblog about Moon than there was between either of the teams....
