Do you think Dallas would do this? I sure would. Brunson and Porzingis for Kemba. It's a buy-low for the Mavs on Kemba. Great trade for the Celtics.

I'm having difficulty thinking of a reason not to do it.  how's Zinger's current health status/outlook?

Dallas would be very hard to convince to move Brunson sadly.
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

 I love Brunson. It would have to be that Dallas wants to dump Zinger.

This balances our roster nicely.

I think Dallas does this ... if we also throw in 2 first rounds pick (2021 and 2023).  And I would still do it.

I thinking waiving and stretching Kemba is a viable option at this point (although still unlikely).

On the fence to be honest.

Not against moving Kemba to improve the team, but Porzingis has had major injury issues and I'm not sure trading for him makes the Celtics any better then they are with Kemba. 

I'm not crazy about it, but don't hate it either.  Kinda *meh* about it.

Just need to move Kemba and free up his money to get healthy players .  Get what you can ,  Danny got skunked by Hornets FO and Kemba to an extent too....I think he was aware of his issues and Danny bit .  Another reason Danny nee$s to go ASAP.

Sorry but the Mavs won't move Brunson.

I think it was Tim MacMahon of ESPN that said Dallas will listen to offers for anyone on their roster other then Doncic or Brunson.

Building on this, if we threw in two firsts and Langford / Nesmith I would probably have to do it

I think that's unfair and baloney. Ainge had no idea that an ironman like kemba would get hobbled like that.

Like I have said in an earlier post, if the Knicks can’t attract a major free agent, a Kemba salary dump to the Knicks for a future protected first round pick is the best we can get.

Looking at the Knicks matchup against the Hawks they are missing scoring with a secondary playmaker and that is Kemba Walker. He’s a New Yorker so the fans will love that as well.
