What would it take for you to be okay with the C's trading the Brooklyn picks?

Now that Durant joined up with his 3 point friends does it change your thoughts on the future going forward? We basically have 1 legit contender in each conference now. I was all in on possibly trading them to form a 3 headed dragon team but now I lean toward seeing how these picks turn out. Use free agency to try for the big fish.

We would need to get back a player that is a legitimate superstar. An actual top 5 or 10 player in the league.  If we can't do that, then keep the picks.  If we can't get one through FA in the next year or two, tear it down and build around those players

[Who]

A top 15 player under the age of 27.

[PhoSita]

A top 15 player under the age of 27.

Co-sign this, but only if said player is under contract for at least two more seasons, or if not, there is some kind of understanding that the player will want to re-sign in Boston.

Cousins.....can't think of anyone else off top of head
Still not sure how butler fits without moving to many parts

That's about the only guy that I can think of that makes sense team wise. Trade would be much easier to swallow with Durant in green tho. Still lacking that that wing that can fill it up.

I honestly don't think I'd be okay with trading both of them for any player short of Curry.  I'd trade one for PG or Cousins, though.  I'm super irrational about trading them but I just think that next year's in particular will be worth keeping over trading.

It isn't just whether the player is top 15 or whatever, it's how he fits on the team. I'm not sure the player exists that a) is someone whose team wants to move, and b) is someone I'd want for the BKN pick. Next years draft seems like it might be special.

That said, I've noticed during this entire process that, judging by what the media says, there are at least 25 'top five player in the  league' guys.

Cousins if done this offseason or Davis. 

[ashanm10]

has to be a top 5 player who is not above 30 lol....preferably though i want to draft our own stars...

no point to trading the picks now.  The only way you're competing with Golden State is if you sign LeBron James + another MVP-level player + two more all-stars - all of which who compliment each other's games beautifully.

Best off just waiting it out.  10 years from now Steph and Durant will be 37.  Klay and Draymond will be 35.  That's when our window will open.  Keep the picks and develop them over the next decade in our competitive also-ran.

[Monkhouse]

For realistic trade targets, I would probably do it for Westbrook or Cousins.

10 years? That's a great plan - not! Is that the Philly strategy? I don't have another 10 years to wait

Basically Philly and 'Sota's ceilings are the only thing standing in the way of an entire decade of dominance.

We also need to hope that modern sports medicine doesn't advance over the next 10 years to the point that Golden State's Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse keep playing at high levels into their 40s.

Gotta get lucky over the next two drafts and hope we develop our own superteam organically.

As LB says, just wait until that GSW team softens a bit. Davis will be a FA in July 2021. See you all again here then... 5 years will fly by.
