Worth a new thread to figure out which teams if any would be interested enough in him to give us something decent-to-good in return? He's not completely useless. He's a regular season MVP candidate. Just useless in the playoffs.Wow, I just perused all the teams using the ESPN trade machine, and, wow...there's almost no team (Dallas?) that would be interested in him. Besides us. Sigh.What about a trade with the Sixers for Saric and the Sacramento 2019 unprotected first?I'd do it, you'd do it, but why would Philly?They need a point guard. IT was just voted for the All-NBA teams and he is considered an MVP candidate. He is a very good player just not what the C's need right now.If you think that's not enough value for Philly let's say we throw in a sweetener as well.IT + Boston 2018 for Saric and Sacramento 2019 (or something like that)I mean, I'm just trying to put ideas out there for discussion. If you have a better idea in mind I'm all ears.Nah, no better idea. It's a good idea. Belated TP.Just have doubts Philly would do it.Reports say they are interested highly in JJ redick. AB is better and younger, though he has 1 year left on deal. If we sign Hayward maybe: AB and Smart 4 Okafor and unprotected 2019 first and filler.I'm not willing to give up Smart for Okafor. Smart guards Bigs better than Okafor does. Just play Smart at center.

Are there any other stars this postseason or recent postseasons who've been similarly shut down?Are there any other stars that have dragged a team like Boston to the Conference Finals in the past few years?It depends on what you mean when you say ''a team like Boston''.Off the top of my headDeRozan in 2016Millsap in 2015Marc Gasol in 2013No, no and no. Derozan and Lowry on one team is a 1a and 1b situation and we don't have a 1b. Millsap and Horford in the frontcourt with Bazemore and the offense running through Korver before he tanked is legit, that team won 60 games and were better than this team. Memphis also had a great frontcourt in 2013 with Randolph and Gasol in their primes plus Conley who is now overpaid, but is a stud. I think Kawhi this year is really the only other guy besides IT.

Gotta be injured. This is too bad.
