Proposed Jaylen Brown Trade Ideas

[Celtics2021]

Brown, Tatum & White will all be on the roster next season. Now if one ask be traded be a different story

What if MIL calls and offer Giannis for Brown?

Higher ceiling, much lower floor.  It depends a bit if it?s an extend-and-trade deal with Giannis.  No extension, no way.  He is way too fickle at this point.

Agree, I don't think MIL would even bother to ask if Giannis was not on board with BOS and willing to extend.  I was just offering a scenario to consider where Brown could be traded, even if he does not ask to be traded.

Miami & Houston is my guess on getting Giannis

But would Houston morgue their future for a 32 year old Giannis who gets hurt a lot recently, Durant who 37 & Van Fleet coming off an Achilles tear?

Miami would have Bam, Giannis & Powell but who else?

Milwaukee can be sitting very pretty if they do the right deal

My prediction is Giannis ends up in Cleveland or Miami.

Maybe I'm a sucker for it but I do monitor the betting sites a bit and it seems Miami is favored to get Giannis, while the 2nd best odds is him staying, and Miami's numbers have continued to stay steady/increase.

Miami will offer Herro, Ware, Jacquez, and picks. CLE could offer Mobley + a role player + picks. The C's could trump them with offering Jaylen but I prefer they not and I don't think CBS will ultimately either.

My guess, he goes Miami. If not Miami, probably Cleveland, although it depends if Lebron decides to go to CLE which could change that course a bit.

I wouldn't do this trade, but it's interesting.

There are some reports going around today that the Clippers pick may be available.

If they offered #5 and Garland (plus a contract) for Brown, would you do it?

good lord no.   BPA at #5 projects to be a guard which isn't their top priority.  Garland's value seems to be dropping as well -- doesn't seem to be a guy that helps with winning.

Yeah, the only way this even works at all is if the Celtics can make a trade using #27 to move into the top 4 and take either Boozer or Wilson. Not supporting this idea at all, but it falls into the same level of trade some people were talking about with Markkanen and #2 (or Ace)

Or the other idea I was toying with is to then trade the 5th for the Kings 7th pick and a player. They are supposedly enamored with Acuff.

(I love exploring trades with dumb franchises)

It gets way complicated, but is there even a feasible way where they could land both Garland and Sabonis, plus the 7th for Hauser, Brown, and some smaller contracts? Sabonis' contract right now is almost negative value given his injuries and the size of the contract.

If not Sabonis, could they get Murray and the 7th pick for the 5th pick?

Just spitballing here. The general framework is interesting, but probably ultimately does not work.

Garland and 5 is interesting.  Definitely would need to do something else with 5 or maybe that is how you get Giannis.

Clippers - Brown
Celtics - Giannis. Garland
Bucks - Bogdanovic, Hauser, Pritchard, Scheierman, Garza, 5, 27, 2028 BOS 1st

Boston would need depth but a Garland, White, Tatum, Giannis, Vucevic starting 5 is good and you still have Hugo, Walsh, and Queta plus Harper, Williams, Shulga

May not be enough for Milwaukee but by keeping Garland it better allows Acuff or whomever to have free reign on the Bucks. 

I still the Bucks best bet is Atlanta or Portland as a 3rd team, but the Clippers or Bulls is interesting because of the top 5 pick right now.

that's a hideous overpayment.  JB and maybe 27 for Giannis would be fair value in light of Giannis health concerns.  Bucks wouldn't take it but Giannis is not going to garner that much of a haul in the current trading environment. 

no way would I give up the rest of that for Garland.

Yeah I'm feeling like that is too much to give up as well, but that roster is the favorite in the East next year and still has upside with Queta coming into his prime and Hugo developing. Plus, I think Garland's best years are still ahead of him. He's had a disappointing stretch these last couple of years with injuries and an awkward fit with Mitchell, but it wasn't too long ago that he was in the same class as Maxey as a rising star.

I thought I might get Moranis to bite on that one .
