Could we re-route Lowry to a 3rd team?

Not sure - good question though as his contract is expiring and the Knicks clearly want him...

Don't trust any Toronto newspapers/media outlet when it comes to NBA. They have some of the worst sources. Toronto Sun is a joke.

2 picks in the high teens or low 20s?  No thanks.

Good points - as a Nova alum, would love to see Lowry in a Celtics uniform, notwithstanding his apparent bad attitude

Also, the C's are in desperate need of shooters, and Ross fits that bill

do they have a draft pick from someone else in 14 or 15? because you cant trade 1st round picks in consecutive seasons.

No thanks.  Those picks will be blah and none of that talent is all that great.

Lets face it, every team would love to have Rondo.
It's just a portion of the Celtics fan base that doesn't appreciate him.

Just like they say, you don't know what you got til its gone.

It will be a sad day if Rondo gets moved.

Rondo is the best player in this deal by far.

Green is probably the second best player in this deal.

Those picks would likely return a good rotation player at best. 

No thanks.

I don't know how they can trade back to back picks but this. Is a pretty good deal. Find another team to flip Lowry to and presto 3 picks for Rondo. I'm a fan of Ross too

Agree. Toronto would immediately become much better and the picks would go way down (not to mention they can't trade back-to-back first rounders). Lowry and Salmons are not long-term solutions for the C's and Ross is still a question mark. I've always liked Derozan and Valanciunas, but I can't see a deal to be made.

I think this rumor is bogus, but I wanted to chime in to say that Lowry is a far better player than Green.

Depends on the protection of the picks and how close to top five.

A pick in the first 6 and I start to warm up .

A pair of  high teen picks for Rondo is stupid .   

No way..........  High teen picks is what you want for Green and Bass ...not a Rondo

At least one pick in top 10 to start with.
