If they really want salary relief, I'd start looking at a three-way deal involving Randolph to Houston and Asik to Boston.

I can't see the link but I don't know why the grizzlies would trade Zbo for an even older player
Its an expiring contract.

Pierce would be the contract match, they'd have to be getting other assets back. But the BKN don't have assets to give so yeah.....

The Nets own the rights to Bogdanovic, 2nd best overseas player after Mirotic.

I would deal Jeff Green for ZBO.
Why? Sullinger is producing at the same level for much cheaper.

Sully at PF and ZBO at C.

Celtics need a REAL Center, not another power forward that has to play center. Besides...we have like so many PF's and not one is a legit center in the lineup. Marc Gasol would make sense.

Don't see it, Z-Bo is a declining veteran, not someone we should trade for. Not only that I don't think a Z-Bo Sullinger lineup would be all that great.

Jeff Green is at least young enough to potentially be a part of the future. Even if he's not he's at least cheaper.

Just as it would make sense for Boston to want Gasol, it makes sense for Memphis to prefer to keep him and move Randolph.

I just read the article in the Link, wow that's really nothing, not even a rumour.

But a fan suggesting a trade idea. Could have been anybody here on celticsblog writing this.
