Trades not even drafting a player? Getting Cousins? What would make you mad? What would make you consider it a huge win for the Celtics?

No mistakes.

Can you specifically define what a "mistake" would be?
*CB Miami Heat*
Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.

A bad trade more than anything.

Taking on dead money for a year or two wold be a mistake for me. Unless your able to get more pieces to the puzzle that you could flip for Cousins.

Unloading Wallace tonight on a stiff GM would be the ultimate dream of mine.

Unloading Wallace for the sake of unloading him is strictly falling into the camp of mistakes.

What I mean by that is if you can unload him without taking anything back without giving up more than a 2 round pick.I know I am dreaming of that to happen.

Anything that makes us a better team, long or short term.

Well in that case, sure. I still think Wallace has some values in order to participate in sign and trade opportunities and if worst comes to worst we can stretch him, which shouldn't be too much of a burden going forward. I still think he can be easily dumped when needed. The price may be higher, but if there's a need for it, it's because an opportunity presented itself and it's worth it.

Yeah he's an expiring deal - he'd be better suited for trading midseason when other teams inevitably regret some of the overpay contracts they're going to give out this summer.

The Lakers missing out on Towns.

The Celtics picking up Stanley Johnson and then Upshaw in the second round.

I just want a player who is ready to contribute with a solI'd potential.

Seeing WCS or Stanley Johnson slip and moving up to get one of them by only having to use 28 and 16.  Picking up Upshaw in the 2nd round.  Taking local kid Pat Connaughton with the 45th would be nice to see.

Smart and Young remaining Celtics after tonight is over.

Drafting: Towns, Okafor, Winslow, WTCS, Porzingis(spelling) Mario, Mudiay, Johnson, Turner, Anderson, R-HJ, Upshaw, Counglton(spelling).

Trading for Cousins (but keeping Smart).

My dream scenario is we trade up to 6 or 9 with 16+28+ (One of) Avery Bradley/KO/Sully and draft Winslow, WTCS, Mario, or Turner. Draft Upshaw at 33. Draft Connelghton(spelling) at 45.

Good luck Danny! Make me happy!

Oh. And also--the Lakers missing Towns.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier
