To Minnesota:  Jeff Green, Brandon Bass, Joel Anthony, Jared Sullinger, 2014 #1, 2015 #1
To Boston:  Kevin Love, Kevin Martin

To Houston: Bogans, Babb, Pressey, lottery protected Clippers pick
To Boston:  Omar Asik

To Cleveland:  Future second rounder, trade exception
To Boston:  Deng

Asik / Faverani
Love / KO
Deng / Johnson / Wallace
Martin / Bradley / #17
Rondo

Love:  $15.72m
Rondo:  $12.91
Wallace:  $10.11
Deng:  $10.0 million (first year salary)
Asik: $8.37m
Martin: $6.79m
Bradley:  $3.58m (QO)
Faverani:  $2.09m
Olynyk:  $2.08m
#17 pick: $1.4m
Johnson:  $0.92m
Cap charges:  $0.51 million

Total:  $73.97 million

We'd still be under the luxury tax, and could conceivably use the full MLE to bring in somebody else.

probably the most reasonable rebuild deals I've seen posted yet.  not so sure Cleveland takes that deal but I guess a 2nd rounder for sending Deng is better than getting nothing for him.

wouldn't beat Miami but might be able to hang with Indy.  If Love and Rondo resign, team would still have all its picks from 2016 on so adding good young talent at the expense of the Nets is still in play

Not for $13 million per year.

And we wont get him for $10 million as Roy posted, otherwise he would have resigned with Chicago. Unless its one of them poison pill contracts.

Poison pill contracts, like what Asik and Lin got, only apply to restricted free agents with 1-2 years of experience.

Well, im not sure how we can get Deng at $10 million. And I know its first year salary, but that means his next salaries wont still be what they are looking for, amiright? It will be nice if we can.

I can't see any team paying much more than 10 mil a year for Deng, so we might be safe there.  I've always liked him and gave Pierce fits, but not really a go to scorer.  With what Who said I kind of agree that I would prefer a go to wing scorer to go along with Love, but aside from Melo there really isn't anyone else available.  So it's a start at least, and maybe we can work on getting a go to wing scorer later on.

Def one of the more reasonable and  realistic offers of a rebuild ive seen so TP to u... However im not so sure we can get Asik that easily.. Ur offer was basically the clips pick and some unguranteed players for Asik, so not so sure Houston would bite on the offer... T-Wolves might accept but im not sure theyd throw in K-Mart in that sort of a deal unless AB or another pick is included... But overall good ideas and id love that team as i think they could contend in the East especially if LBJ, Dwade and Bosh opt out this summer then we could have a legit shot at a deep playoff run in a weak East..
