I already suggested something along those lines of trading Pierce to Orlando and getting back someone. Although Derrick Williams is of no interest to me. NJs lotto pick this year would be better. Hell, I'd think I'd even take Marshon Brooks and a late 1st rounder from NJ in like 2014 than Williams. Orlando would have to wind up with Pierce + another two good vets in some 4 way deal. I'm not one of those posters that spends hours on end of my life on Trade Checker, because, well the Celtics GM is Danny Ainge. And he's as creative as any GM in sports, so I'm sure he's trying to get in on just about anything.
You can forget about Ray having any value to bring back a guy like Wliiams (#2 pick in the draft, as overrated as he might be, or NJs lotto pick, or whatever). Ray is 36 and is sporting a 15 PER (which is league average.) And he's also looked old as hell the last month. Pierce is at least still an all star, 34, and has a 19 PER, which is the same as the last 3-4 years for him. It's been said a million times. Woj was on EEI like two weeks ago and said that Ray can't even fetch a first. Danny has Ray on the block (along with the whole team) for a while and no one is biting. Maybe Indiana who wants to take on some salary to make a run, but once again, I don't see them trading a 1st. Very unlikely they give up a 1 to Rent-A-Ray when they probably won't even win a playoff series. And they won't even make an effort to re-sign him because they are using their 15M cap space to make a run at Gordon.
