Gert T 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 I don't like the trade, but I don't like the C's either. Do you think they try to re-sign Rashard Lewis now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boon 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 I like the idea of bringing in a veteran to play with Pierce and not losing Jefferson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 If I'm Boston, I roll the dice with Allen and hope to make an impact in the playoffs next year. I don't see how the #5 pick would help them that much when Pierce starts getting pissy 2 weeks into the season. I guess I'm in the minority. I'd say the entire SOSH message board is on suicide watch right now. You'd think they just traded the face of the franchise for Allan Houston or something.

Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 Interesting trade. After getting West, I wonder if Seattle will go through with the Ridnour trade and grab Atlanta's #11 too to go with Durant and Green. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boon 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 SOSH is filled with idiots. It's either take a shot at a run in the next 2-3 years with Pierce or blow the whole fucking thing up and start again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fökai 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 Anyone want to explain that trade from the Sonics position? Trading away Allen doesn't make the Sonics more attractive for Rashard. EDIT: And like I said a few days ago, the Celtics had no use for that #5 pick. What a steal for the Celtics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2007 SOSH is filled with idiots. It's either take a shot at a run in the next 2-3 years with Pierce or blow the whole fucking thing up and start again. I kinda agree. The board has the most intelligent baseball conversation anywhere on the net, but the second the Celts come up they turn into blubbering idiots. The trade will make the Celtics a little better. Allen is more of an impact player than the #5 pick and his contract isn't that much worse than Wally's. It's not a franchise changing move, but it's a baby step in the right direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think there's any chance Rashard is coming back. They'll probably try to get some interest for a sign and trade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ripper 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 Yeah, thats a pretty good move for Boston. Starting line up of Rondo, Allen, Pierce, Jefferson and Mystery man(I guess Perkins). Gives them one HELL of a starting 4 in the East. Plus with who the fuck do you double off of? ... Well, I guess Rondo, but his shot is going to improve.

bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 well Pierce had said if he didnt get veteren help, he'd ask for a trade. So that's probably why they did it. Works fine I think, though they gave up a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bobobrazil1984 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 I'm glad Mil picked ihm even though Yi's people didn't want it. It irritates me when draftees pull that stuff, trying to lock teams out. I mean, be glad you're in the NBA and play for the team that drafted you, and if you dont like the team, then ask for a trade later in your rookie contract.

MrRant 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 So who's going to be the SF and the PF for the Sonics? Just a weird trade for Seattle. Wilcox will probably be penciled in as the PF with the returning Robert Swift and other prospects being the C. Durant perhaps as SG (a long one) and Jeff Green at SF.

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 I love the trade for Boston. Ray Allen is a great player, they've got enough young talent, they need to try and win with Pierce right now. Pierce, Allen and Jefferson is an awesome trio for the next 3-4 years. I don't really get Seattle taking Jeff Green with the pick when both him and Durant seem like natural 3's. Do they think Durant is going to become a 4? That Green can play 2? Good player but I would have gone in a different direction there. Delonte West is a damn good player in his own right and will be a fan fave in Seattle as he was in Boston. Ridnour for #11 seems like a no brainer to me for Seattle. Not sure why ATL would do that. I do like Ridnour more than most, but Law might be a better player right now, and Crittenton surely has a much higher ceiling with a few years of NBA experience.
