I had a vivid dream we traded Brown

[KG Living Legend]

So the Celtics just get younger and younger and younger. Not sure how that is going to play with Tatum who probably doesn't want these guys taking 3-4 years to get up to speed on what it takes to win in the playoffs.

When Brown and Tatum have played in the playoffs, they have made a great duo and have had a ton of success for guys age 23 and 25. You add veteran talent to them for more playoff success. Guys like Harrison Barnes or Fred VanVleet. Guys with a playoff pedigree.

You don't move one of the Jays for guys that are teenagers or just hit their drinking age and that probably have trouble spelling playoffs nevermind knowing how to play in them.

 You really wouldn't make this trade. You can probably flip SGA or Dort for another position of need. Even left alone this team would win more games than our current roster.

 Plus your adding much needed passing.  12 plus assists per game would be huge for Tatum and company.  A much deeper team than what we have currently.

Who is the best player in this trade?

Very close if last year is an indication of their ceiling

. Thanks for that.  Was going to say that SGA is having a bad shooting year from three. If you look at his career he's a good shooter.  No Brainer trade from the C's position

 Last night. It was so vivid in fact, that I woke up excited to read the news and see who else was in the trade.  It's not very exciting, but we traded Jaylen for Josh Giddey and Shae Gileous Alexander. 

 Favors would needed to be added in real life, I was just curious if any poster would be interested In a package like this.  I think I created this because my dream is a tall pass first PG. Giddey is 6'8" and SGA would give us scoring to replace Jaylens.

OKC would put the phone down, laugh their asses off then continue laughing for the next 10-years on the idea of trading Giddey for Brown alone. He's a superstar in the making.

I probably make this trade. But then I probably set my expectations of winning a title 5-6 years down the line. Maybe farther.

I think keeping the Jays and adding the right talent now, or this offseason, means setting my expectations of winning a title 2 or 3 years from now.

I'm not getting any younger and 2008 is going on 14 years ago. Kicking the can down the street a bunch waiting for youth to mature isn't something I would be looking forward too.

It's good to great trade value for Brown. There's also the possibility none of that youth can perform at a high level on a playoff winning team for many, many years. Brown, meanwhile, has proven to majorly up his game in the playoffs. And his game is pretty dang good to great already.

I don't think you understand the power of KGLL's dreams.  It's out of Sam Presti's hands.

 A little strange you think Presti hangs up laughing at Jaylen for Giddey straight up. Care to elaborate..

Screen name is AUS Backer.  As is Australia, where Giddey is also from.

I’ll buy JB a cowboy hat on the way to the airport.

Celtics fans continue to severely overrate Jaylen Brown, his 'stardom' and trade value where Giddey, is quickly showing he's OKC's best player and a potential cornerstone piece. I don't see Brown as someone you build a team around, Giddey I do.

Wow, that changes everything. 10 first round picks then. 🙄

When Brown and Tatum have played in the playoffs, they have made a great duo and have had a ton of success for guys age 23 and 25. You add veteran talent to them for more playoff success. Guys like Harrison Barnes or Fred VanVleet. Guys with a playoff pedigree.

Considering JT/JB have not really accomplished anything in the playoffs without Hayward, Horford, Rozier, and other veterans, could not agree more that Tatum has had great success with the right veterans around him. But disagree JT/JB were a great duo during those championship runs because that was really Tatum and the veterans mostly.

You don't move one of the Jays for guys that are teenagers or just hit their drinking age and that probably have trouble spelling playoffs nevermind knowing how to play in them.

19 year old Tatum did fine in the playoffs with a good surrounding cast. Giddey looks like possibly the new 19 year old sensation (18th in the league in assists, close to averaging a triple-double, youngest person to ever get a triple-double). Who knows what he could possibly pull off with Tatum and legit veteran role players around them all? If we could turn JB into Giddey and two solid lunchpail veterans like a Harrison Barnes, or Giddey and SGA (highly skeptical OKC goes for that), that’s a must-do.
