if you're looking forward to a trade, the most realistic one is Hozier + Wallace to Philly for nothing.  We want to dump the Wallace contract and Philly can use a scrub guard to throw the ball to their phenom triple tower prospects.

I honestly wouldn't be opposed to dealing Rozier to clear cap space. He's redundant with Smart and doesn't offer that shooting stroke of RJ Hunter. If he can be used to work towards signing FAs, then I'm up for it.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

Gotta give up something to free up cap space.  Might have to be Hozier.

I bet a trade of Isiah Thomas back to the Kings for WCS would make Cousins happy.

I think you can pretty much always say a trade is coming and never be wrong for too long. We make a lot of trades. But, as much as some think the sky is falling, we do already have some pretty good player and we have some chemistry already. We need 1 or 2 really good trades, and sadly we have to wait for them to come.

Why would we do this? We would have to have LMA and Love both wanting to sign here and even then we might be able to convince Wallace to just retire and we could stretch him and make a minor move to free up money elsewhere if need be. If you look at the PP KG trade, I think we basically got 1 first for taking Wallace so why give up a 1st to get rid of him now?

i thought a trade was coming too
when i saw our first 2 picks

but with the draft over
ainge may genuinely believe these were the best players available
also ainge may opt to further the rebuild by trading off bradley and thomas
if we fail to bring in any major free agents
