In no particular order:

Crawford - he may still have some value but he is sinking fast, his passes are late and dribbles the air out of the ball.

Lee - salary cap relief.

Wallace - over paid, bad contract.

Green - can't watch his lack of desire anymore.

Bass - watching him in the post is painful! He does some things well but helps us win when we need to lose, also like to see his minutes go to KO.

I want to trade players who are less valuable than what they bring back.

I'd move everyone except for Rondo & Sully if the price is right.

Wallace - this guy just puzzles me as a player. I think he's pouting one day and then the other night I saw him pregame hanging on his teammates shoulders and goofing around, having a great time. which would indicate that he's at least content with the situation.

but his game alone should warrant a trade out of here. his TO's are suspect to the point I think he's trying to sabotage the team - they're that bad.

Lee - never been a fan & when he came here last yr I was even less of one. then he goes and complains about playing time. also he was wondering why his jump shot wasn't falling. if he just went & watched some tape he'd know he shoots like an idiot. and I don't like idiots.

bass - again, never been a fan. he's playing hard and I appreciate his effort but with all that great effort I still only see a middle of the road PF.

Crawford - it would break my heart to see him go. but I think we might be able to get something for him. I just like him.

I'm pretty ok w/ just about anybody being traded as long as it makes us better.

who do i want to trade? missed the and why so editing!
crawford, misses lots of open players, plays to much for his own shot, defense fair at best, good crawford i'd love as a combo guard off bench but i think bad crawford is still there
brooks (no trade value imo), reason he isn't that good
wallace (untraceable unless  you are sweeting the deal i.e. giving away a draft pick), reason too many turnovers, he offers a lot of little things but doesn't score or shoot and is paid way way too much

who am i ok with trading to improve team  ::)
in order
bass, good player but will be behind sully with a real center (which we need) should have some nice value to a contender
bradley/lee, bradley is good, shooting a bit much, contract issues and he's undersized for a sg and cannot play pg! love his defense and really like the combo of he and rondo, size be [dang]ed
lee i like off the bench, good defense, really nice shooting this year, if he and bass could in fact get asik i'd love it
humphries, if bass was moved and hump would sign with us for more reasonable $ i'd like to keep him, give you backup minutes at pf and c
green, good team player who doesn't hog ball, does everything nice but nothing great, he is sort of the dennis johnson on the team for an 80s reference; this is fine if you have a bird, mchale, parish
we currently have rondo then next best are green and sully  :-\….so if we had a team like the spurs than great, no star but all good players he fits nice, if we have rondo and an all star at another position than green is a good fit, if he can be used to get us an improvement great but we only have him and wallace as sf and no way do i want wallace starting  :'(

not worth trading more value to us
pressey, small limited contract might as well see how he does and can resign him next year
fav, untested, good upside, could be a steal

wouldn't trade
rondo, sully, ko rookie contract who knows how good he could become (i think good sub)

I don't see how Bass doesn't get traded at this point. He'd be a good role player on a contender. Crawfords a good trade candidate as well. There's no way we'll have this many sgs and pfs on the team in a couple of months

I would trade anyone if it helps this team grow into a contender.

The guys I think should be traded are

Crawford, sell high. He is having a good season and is in contract year.

Bass, offers good value to a contender

Humphries, large expiring contract and he is productive.

Bogans, expiring contract
Mavs
Wiz
Hornet

Hump and Bogan's expiring deals should be used to score a true center. That's about it for me.

Sullinger.  Here is why: players like him get huge salaries when they're ready for a contract, but they're not really championship pieces.  At the same time, everyone loves players like him in trades and he could get us the best piece back in return after maybe Rondo.  Further, I kind of expect us to pick about 7th or 8th and we'll almost certainly grab Aaron Gordon, who is the same height and also didn't abuse his girlfriend.  So yeah, him

everyone should be available, because nobody on the team is a franchise player... not even Rondo.  The most valuable trade asset on the Boston Celtics is their own 2014 unprotected 1st rounder. 

But the main guys we'd want to trade are Wallace, Bass and Lee.  They are paid pretty well, have almost no value... and have nothing to do with the big picture of this team's future. 

Problem is, like I said... Wallace, bass and Lee have almost no value.
