Celtics can't trade for AD until the offseason anyway. If we can't turn this season around, it'll probably be time to move him at that point.
You can’t trade him for a poo poo platter, which is what I think is just a step below what we will receive in exchange.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
AD won't be going anywhere until the offseason at the earliest when Boston can bid. The more teams we would have bidding against each other, the better for us. We will end up getting a ransom for AD if we do end up trading him from Boston, LAL, or the Knicks.
Maybe I'm crazy but if we end up having to trade AD I'm kinda ok with a front court of Niko and Randle.
I'd focus on trying to get a startung guard and sf and a backup center and sf/PF.
No way Demps trades AD. He needs to trade for Wall. Say whatever you want about Wall’s contract but if we got Wall most of you would be really excited.

It feels like the Ariza trade, at least for right now, is going to put the hold on their earlier inclinations to blow it up.
I don't think you make that trade unless you are looking to give the core one last shot.
Now if it doesn't rekindle some 13-15 Wizards era basketball, I think they will be right back in the market in short order.

IMO, Wall is the best option for this team. When motivated, he’s really good. I know everyone loves Jrue but he doesn’t do it for me. Everybody would be on the table except Randle and AD. I would obviously start with guys like Solo, Moore, Peyton etc.
The most overused words on Pelicansreport.com. Wrongly, I might add.
ELITE - (often used with a plural verb) the choice or best of anything considered collectively, as of a group or class of persons.
GREAT - notable; remarkable; exceptionally outstanding
These words should not be used lightly
they are on espn talking about AD will ask to be traded after this season.....and i dont know if john wall is a good move for us..if its true about AD then rich paul also is the agent for john wall and if he is pushing for AD to go join lebron then i would think he wouldnt want wall here long term also....

I don't want wall because if AD forces his way out we are on the hook for a ton of money which kills flexibility.
No,no,no to John Wall and his absurd contract. You want to hang an albatross around this franchise’s neck for the next four years then that’s a great way to do it....
Chances are any great player that becomes available between now and the trade deadline is going to have issues. Teams don't part with great players on great contracts who are leaders in the locker room. We got Boogie because 90% of the league thought he was a headache. Assuming a great player becomes available (and we have the pieces to pull it off), I doubt we'll have the luxury of being all that picky.
Bottom line: If we do nothing or trade for a guy that's an improvement, but doesn't significantly move the needle, it's a certainty that AD is leaving. If we go all in on Wall (a Rich Paul guy), there's a slim chance that it works, the Pels go on a roll, and AD reconsiders turning down that supermax. Not saying it's the best option, but we're out of time. There is no next season to save this. You either bet big now or hold onto our 1st and start lining up your offers for AD.
Hopefully if AD really is looking to force his way out, Demps already knows that. In that case, he should be holding onto assets rather than trading for overpriced borderline stars or fringe players.
