Rondo and Vitor and future lottery protected pick for Burke and the expiring contracts of Williams and Rush. 

Could that be expanded with Green and the 17 pick for a resigned Hayward.  Separate trade?

Burke, Bradley, Hayward, Sullinger, Olynyk plus picks 5 and 6?  Randle or Vonleh at 5?  Young, McDermott, LaVine, or Stauskas at 6?

I don't think the Jazz budge on that trade.

  Hopefully we won't either, unless we're hoping to hang out in the lottery for quite a while.

Jazz doesn't do that trade unless Rondo agrees to sign an extenstion and I highly doubt he wants to play in Utah.

I don't think the Jazz would even want Rondo at this point.

Yeah, wouldn't make much sense for them trading for Rondo.

Not much interest in Burke. Looks like a Jameer Nelson type is his ceiling.

I'd do Rondo for Burke + #5 + Gobert



Makes no sense for Utah, though.  None.

Hate to break it to you, but barring a significant move (Love?) we will be in the lottery with or without Rondo.

I mean, I think it's plausible that Ainge could make moves for Afflalo and Asik this off-season and the Celtics would be a playoff team in this conference.  But that's not a major accomplishment.

I expect the team to be in the lottery for another couple of seasons, unless there's a blockbuster trade.

   You're not breaking anything to anyone, but it's fairly obvious that Wyc and Danny are planning on making a significant move or two. That won't be the case if we make the trade.

I think exploring trades for established stars (Love, Melo) has to be the first option.  Every team in the league is gonna kick the tires on that.

As a Plan B, though, seeing if it's possible to trade Rondo for a top 10 pick and a couple other decent young players makes a lot of sense.

  That's probably plan C (at least), after waiting to see if anything shakes out over the next year or so.

Ainge may very well agree with you. 

I've already explained ad nauseum why I'd prefer to make a decision this summer about building through youth or trying to become competitive sooner with veterans (including Rondo).

I doubt Ainge will allow the Celtics to be in the lottery for that long.......
