ESPN has picked up the rumor.  No surprise there.

Where did you hear/see the rumor. I've been on ESPN and haven't seen it.

Well, at the very least I think it's safe to stop refreshing this page every 15 seconds...

Yep, I'm ready to move on to Luol Deng.

Another report that the discussions are for real, according to "league source" :

"League source confirms Wizards, Celts engaged in trade talks. BOS interest in Jamison, Butler. Wiz in R. Allen. Other pieces being discussed"

Boy, "league source" really has conflicting reports... it's a new word than can be used for every report/rumor, it seems.

League Source just means anyone who's employed by an NBA team...

[Donoghus]

Wake me up on Wednesday/Thursday, that's when the concrete stuff will be emerging.

Ya, I'm going to start referencing 'league sources' in my everyday life. "League sources report that I had too much to drink last night"

How about a Deli guy working at an NBA commissary?

Don't mean to keep joking around, but if the Boston Herald "sniffed this one out" why did they fail to report anything? Elitists?

Ric Bucher on ESPN the Magazine just said live that he heard that the Celtics won't do this trade because of the long term cost of the contracts of Butler and Jamison

He did concede however that talks between the teams will be going on all weekend and that if the deal did get done it would change the face of the Eastern Conference

Oh, c'mon... This trade make no sense: Celtics won't pay over 100 milions next year. It's just a Wizards move to hurry Cavs and Mavs

it wouldnt be 100M. It would be high 80's simular to what it os now

Fixed

Perk/Sheed/Williams
KG/Jamison/ One stiny sock
Pierce/Butler/Walker
Ray/Daniels/ Allen
Rondo/DJ Agustin/House

I bet the second unit would beat that first unit at least half the times they played them.
