I wouldn't be so eager to package Green for Varejao. For one, Varejao is coming off of a serious injury. Two, he has been a bench player most of his career. Three, I look at Andy as a guy who would be great for a contending team, but I don't think he is that useful for a rebuilding process. The question for Danny would be, "Is Varejao really going to put the Celtics over the top next season?" If not, I don't see how you can make the move.

I don't think Cleveland does this anyways. They'd be left with no size at all.

Cleveland might do it if they can complete that trade that would get them the #2 pick (Derrick Williams).  Green is a more natural 3 and they could put Derrick at 4 and JJ Hickson at 5.  They are very thin at SG, too.
Never forget the Champs of '08, or the gutsy warriors of '10.

Wouldn't this trade essentially be Perk and Bradley for Varejao and a 1st rounder? If you cancel out Bradley and the 1st, it would be Perk for Varejao. I wonder how many people around here would still do this deal if we still had Perk. Even the contracts are pretty similar...

If Varejao hadn't been injured, I would absolutely have considered Perk straight up for Varejao.
