It seems to me that if Detroit can trade Smith to the Kings, then the Celtics player that would make the most sense to go to Detroit would be Green.  Green, Monroe, and Drummond is a pretty good core.

Not sure who we take back in that case either from Kings or Detroit though.

Detroit may have incentive to include Boston.  According to Hoopshype today, "...multiple sources say Monroe’s camp has made it known Monroe will sign the one-year qualifying offer if Smith remains on the roster."

So, it Sacto wants Rondo and Smith....Detroit wants Thomas...Boston wants Monroe...

As the original post said, add players, picks, to make it work.

By the way there are also rumors that Detroit has explored a possible trade of Monroe to NO for Ryan Anderson....maybe adding Olynyk would get it done?

Wouldn't the idea be that they want to get rid of one of Drummond/Monroe/Smith and if they trade Smith then they no longer feel pressure to work out a deal for Monroe and can keep him instead?

I just hope Danny isn't willing to do all these trades some of you line up for RR. I will completely ignore anything Danny has done before now if he ever even considers RR for Lin. I CAN'T with some of these proposals... I can laugh at them though. Matter of fact, that trade would be a worse dis than Melo posters sporting Lin jerseys.

Why would Detroit and Sac involve Boston in the deal? Seems like Sac can deal with Det and Bos in separate deals.

Also, I assume that if Smith goes, Monroe stays.
