Boston trade: Ray Allen, Tony Allen, Scalabine, Jiddens
LA CLippers: Gordon, Kaman, Randolph, Thornton

Pheraps LA gives too much, but they take only expiring contracts and they still have the N.1 choise.
Boston will have problably one of best frontline ever, with also a good bench; with the MLE we can take a veteran shooting guard like insurance for the "young" Gordon or with the LLE a player like Novak (also former clipper) for pure shoooting. There will be rest for KG & PP for sure (maybe we will be too deep!)

Uhmmm any team involving Randolph automatically gets DQ'ed from "Best" anything conversations.

I don't think Randolph is a good fit for any championship caliber team. He is a black hole in offense and a sub par defender, plus with some bad rep.

That said, I give you your first TP (forza Italia! I am from Spain :)

I don't think LA would have much interest in this.  They want to get rid of Randolph, but not so much that they'd dump both Gordon and Thornton.

That being said, this is one of the few trades involving Zach Randolph that I'd do.  That's because Kaman + Gordon + Thornton is a good return for Ray.  With Randolph, I imagine we'd immediately start the process of shopping him to new teams, or telling him to stay home.

Yea I wouldn't mind this trade at all for the Celts but while the Clips are desperate to get rid of Randolph, I doubt they'd want to get rid of Kaman as well.

Not to mention I would think they would keep Gordon, as Gordon and Griffin are going to be the foundation of that team for years to come.
