ShamWow: Celtics + Cavs actively talking Kyrie/IT swap (UPDATE: Deal Done Did)

[CELTICSofBOSTON]

Sounds to me like IT, Crowder, Zizic, and a low pick for Kyrie ?

[jpotter33]

Anything where we send out projected top picks or Jaylen or Tatum is puke. Total puke. Unless we're getting something awesome totally unforseen in return

Yep, with IT and Crowder as givens, there's no way I'm trading Jaylen, Jayson, or the two top 2018 picks.

[Moranis]

I've been saying since the story on Irving broke that Thomas, Crowder, Rozier, and Boston's 1st for Irving made a lot of sense.  Looks like it might be Zizic instead of Rozier, which also makes sense as some small salary most be included with Thomas and Crowder to make the salaries work

Oh boy:

CLE will receive BKN 2018 1st round pick - unprotected - from BOS in the trade that is currently being discussed, league source tells ESPN

that seems like nonsense

[CoachBo]

Before some of you commit hari-kari, how many times have the Celtics been close to a deal that didn't happen?

With that said, I fully endorse the acquisition of Irving. I'd prefer to send them Jaylen Brown than Tatum. The picks?

So you are in favor of Ainge losing a trade? Kyrie isn't a huge upgrade over IT and that's an overpay.

I don't agree with your evaluation of the proposed trade.

The idea of Kyrie with an actual coach in Brad Stevens intrigues me. A LOT.

[Celtic Fan Forever]

WHY DID YOU GIVE UP THE 2018 UNPROTECTED BROOKLYN PICK DANNY YOU IDIOT!

[Moranis]

Can't believe Boston would give up the BKN pick.  Terrible trade if true

[max215]

Oh no. Brooklyn pick is in it, per Shams.

[max215]

My stomach hurts.
