no doubt nate is an upgrade over eddie...and i wouldnt be opposed at getting jeffries with him...could really fill a need

can't figure out how to do that with out adding a 3rd team

I'm surprised that there is even a quesiton as to whether Nate is an upgrade over House.  He clearly brings MUCH more to the table.   I understand some worry about his attitude, but count me among those who doubt this will be a problem. 

The best we can hope for out of trade deadline deal is a slight upgrade.  We already have, when healthy, one of the top 2 or 3 teams in the league.  You are not going to upgrade the starting 5 -- let's be grateful for anything that upgrades the rotation.  Nate would.

This is in the same train of thought as the iverson trade except with youth....so with or with out the story out there, I think doc and ainge are looking---and have been looking to pull the trigger. I think if possible,they also want to bring in more youth with length for the bench.....but if LA gets bosh, it doesnt even matter....duh-duh-daaaah- :-X

I'd take Nate just to keep him from LA. He is an upgrade over h House.

no love for wilson chandler. he was good last year. is he having a bad year? i'd love him backing up pierce.at least last year's chandler.I must be missing something.that would be absurd for the c's. i dont know if i'd like the chandler part even MORE.

Who's not showing Chandler love?  There have been a ton of offers thrown out with him in it.  But the truth is, there is no way we are getting him without taking back significant bad salaries (meaning Curry).

I hope this goes deal happens.  We need a spark off the bench; some instant offense.  Eddie is no longer able to provide that.  Not sure why.  His FG % was .394 coming into tonight, throw in tonight's 1-5 performance and he's getting close to dipping below 39%.

I had reserves before but now I'm 100% for bringing Nate on board. This team looks like it is on its deathbed in the second half of games.

This seriously needs to happen.
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

As much as we might need Nate, House will be hugely missed and all of ya'll saying that Nate will outperform House are mistaken.

Mark it down!

Riight.

Cause he looked so good tonight.  And the last 2 months.
