After the news broke about the release of Joseph and Varnado, speculation began that the Celtics may be positioning themselves to make a big trade. A. Sherrod Blakely of Comcast SportsNet New England first reported that his sources said these moves could pave the way for a "blockbuster" deal.

It sounds like they are basing it on Sherrod's story.

At the top of the article, the writer says according to multiple reports rather than sources. Sounds like he isn't clued in and is just working off what others are writing.

It sounds like a big game of telephone started by guys with no sources and who don't understand the CBA.

I wonder where he got the "close deal tonight" aspect of it though.

Here's what he said in latest tweet:

@NBAonNBCBoston simply passing along same info heard and reported by others A.Sherrod included that Celtics have targeted Cousins.

This pretty much nails it down for me ... nothing solid enough to get very excited about, (yet).

Celtics close to a deal for Paul and Griffen for Terry, Barbosa, Collins and Lucky. Sticking point is including Lucky.
