 According to Rusillo on ESPN. Also said Lance Stevenson but he's Garbage.

 I think Crawford could help a little if he's available for cheap. Anyone want Smith? Danny could swindle Doc easily if those guys could help us.

The Celtics have no use for any of those guys.

Smith can play if in the right team
Like he did with the rockets last season.
Plus he's on a cheap expiring contract

Especially cheap considering what Detroit must be paying him still. I'd consider going after Josh Smith, the original small ball 4.

Crawford is probably more intriguing considering he plays with IT and Bradley in the offseason so you'd imagine they'd vouch for him. Maybe something like James Young, Tyler Zeller and the Minny pick for Josh Smith and Crawford.

This works in the trade machine...  http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=oosf57u

But why can't he play well on the team that he is on?

Never liked Smith in his prime. 

Always liked Crawford, but I'm not sure he makes any sense.

Considering how much license Stevens gives his players to shoot 3s, I think this is a particularly poor fit for Smith.  He's like 'Toine in that regard -- he just can't help himself from taking that 3, and misses the opportunity to get his teammate a good shot.  He's a fine passer when he wants to be, but he doesn't realize he's a better passer than shooter.

Was always a fan of going after smith in the big three and rondo era. At this point however I pass on him. He didn't play well with the clippers, can't space the floor, and has a terrible shot selection. Not something Brad Stevens would be looking for.

Smith is quite the defender, good passer rebounder just has the Antoine shot selection.
Problem is he's another power forward.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
I still think Stephenson is a salvageable project.

I think in our locker room surrounded by some hard working young guys, he could be a comeback kid.

The problem is I'd rather try and get him like we got Evan Turner, on a cheap trial deal.
So if we did get him it would be after his current 2 year deal is up after this season.

"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

RPM has Crawford as 86th out of 92 shooting guards.  That's why they're trying to trade him.  Stevenson is 56th out of 77 small forwards, and Smith 46th out of 73 centers.

Wesley Johnson would be an intriguing target, the others not so much.

Let's set our sights higher. The players available may be substantially better as we approach the trade deadline.

Doc needs better players  and we don't need them in any form or fashion.

Doc hoping to trade two junk washed up players for one young stud ......not happening.
