Package them and a draft pick, what do we get.

A really good player, because teams don't just get to give up garbage for a 22-year old that has shown David West-potential, a 24-year old that has shown Aaron Afflalo 2.0-potential and a pick.
I would do it for Greg Monroe.

We'd quite easily get Monroe for those two without needing to include the pick.
Doubt it, or it would have gotten done already. I have been a big Sully fan all along, but I am finally seeing the limitations in his game.  He will end up as a reliable NBA player, and could perhaps make an All Star team someday, but he's not getting much better than he is right now, skill wise.  Same thing with Bradley. I say make the move.

Because Monroe took his QO he's a UFA after the end of the year and if I understand correctly, we don't even get his bird rights.

His trade value is incredibly low for the same reason as Rondo. Detroit would snap our hands off for Sullinger + Bradley


Great words from a great man

I would burn down Danny Ainge's house if he made that deal.
David West was a much better defender.

Sullinger is a good defender.
That's funny. I hope you aren't being serious.

I'm dead serious.

Big Baby defense > Sully

David West has never not played next to an imposing shot-blocker or behind an elite perimeter defender. The worst center he has played next to is Emeka Okafor. Between the Hornets and Indiana, West was the second line of defense for either Chris Paul or Paul George. Not surprisingly, the year Tyson Chandler left the team and CP3 went down with injury, West posted a career low in defensive rating (or should I say career high: 110 pts. allowed per 100 possessions).

There is neither a single statistic nor professional analysis that suggests that Sully is anything less than an average defender despite being surrounded by mediocre defenders.
So we have to hide Sully's bad defense with a better defender. And then when everyone's stats go up because we have this player x, we can then say Sully is a good defender? Good points you make.

Apart from our inconsistency and meltdowns, two players worry me.
AB (for obvious reasons)
and Sully (the reason is very obvious too  :-\ )

I think you're right. Big baby is able to somehow get to the spots to take charges.

I hope Sullinger has just been ill or something for the past few weeks. It would be best to have him on the bench for a bit.

(that said, somehow he still picked up double-digit rebounds today)

I think the Kings are pretty high on McLemore. I don't think they even take Rondo for him.

Sully is a decent defender against guys that are not too mobile or don't have much a perimeter game.   But against length, athletic guys or pf that can shoot, dribble form the perimeter, he will have issues

Sullinger has to lose 10 pounds for next season.  The excuses he gave that he just needed to be in good condition coming into this season is bs. He has to lose weight

Yup, I would still do that trade. It would almost be like a sign-and-trade in that you have to sign Monroe to a long term deal. To Rondo9, I disagree about Sully and Bradley: I think what you see is pretty much what they are going to be as pros.

You can be "fat" and still play well, like he was doing for almost twenty games.

I think the Kings are pretty high on McLemore. I don't think they even take Rondo for him.

Maybe. Bc they have lost like 8 games now, and fired the coach.  Their GM is in deep waters right now and i can see a possibility of them giving up Mclemore for Rondo

He told Rudy Gay something in order for him to pick up his option.  I bet it had to do with trying to bring in his buddies Josh Smith and Rondo .

To Pistons: Derrick Williams, Carl Landry
To Kings:  Josh Smith

To Sac: Rondo
To Celts: Mclemore, Fillers

Danny really wanted Mclemore a few years ago.  The type of top flight athlete Ainge likes alot
