I believe it when rumor has it that Danny is interested in Millsap.  He loves these hybrid players. Prob thinks thats how the nba is transforming to

To Jazz: Pierce and 16th pick (Schroeder)

To Atl: Rondo (to help resign Josh Smith)

To Celtics: Millsap , Teague, Louis Williams

1) 17th pick (Hawks)- Glen Rice Jr.
2) 18th pick (Hawks)- Giannis Adetokoubo
3) 21st pick (Jazz) - Shane Larkin

Bos starting(say without kg) - Sully - Millsap - Green - AB - Larkin

Bench - Melo, Bass, Glen rice Jr., Terry, Louis Williams, T Will. Giannis stays in Greece or goes to D league

Waived or traded = Courtney Lee, Crawford
Traded = Teague for 2014 or 2015 pick

It`s just this let`s trade Rondo business that gets my goat, grinds my gears, and so on. To me he`s untradeable

I'd be very disappointed if we traded both Rondo and Pierce and only got Millsap and a couple of average guards in return.  This doesn't help us at all, either now or in the future.

EDIT:  Somehow I overlooked all of the picks coming our way, but it doesn't make me feel much better about the deal.  This is not the draft to be loading up on picks.

I would rather have proven NBA players than draft picks especially some of those you name.   I would bet 2-3 of them are busts in terms of being little more than average NBA ballers.

The tapes of I have seen of Giannis Adetokoubo have almost no D in them.  They almost looked like a Globe Trotter game because their was no D.

I'm not a fan of this, but I'm particularly confused as to why we'd acquire Teague, and then trade him for a future #1.

Trading Pierce, Rondo, and moving down in the draft for Millsap, Lou Williams, two mediocre picks in a poor draft, and a future #1 just seems like a bad idea.


I'M THE SILVERBACK GORILLA IN THIS MOTHER... AND DON'T NONE OF YA'LL EVER FORGET IT!

KP / Giannis / Turkuglu / Jrue / Curry
Sabonis / Brand / A. Thompson / Oladipo / Brunson
Jordan / Bowen

or we could keep him. But i think we would be too backlogged in the backcourt.  And i think Louis Williams is a perfectly fine hybrid guard. Much better than AB or Terry.

Mediocre picks is your opinion. Rice Jr. and Glen Robinson 3 some say are almost the exact type of player. Except robinson is a better man to man defender and Rice Jr. a better shooter. 

Larkin will be one of the steals of this draft. He is a complete PG that has the quickness and jumping ability to offset his 5'11 height.

And we all know Danny is enormed with Giannis.

I just feel if the core is gone, Rondo might not really want to stay. I mean he won't complain, but having him being a leader post kg/pp team gives me an ulcer.
