Austin Rivers

Wish we had got Reggie Bullock as the third team.

Me too. They got him for nothing. Doc the GM sux.

Good for the Suns. I think Utah could have easily been that third team and gotten Bullock. Suns just appear to be more aggressive and are looking to actually win now AND be built for the future.

Celtics and Clippers looking for a third trade partner in order to bring Rivers to play for his dad (and save his career).
Should Utah be that third team? Celtics want an expiring deal and a 2nd round pick.

Celtics get Jeremy Evans and second rounder from Clippers

Utah gets CJ Wilcox and Ekpe Udoh, right to swap picks with Celtics

Clippers get Austin Rivers.

Austin Rivers will be dealt to the Clippers with Reggie Bullock going to the Suns and Shavlik Randolph being sent to the Celtics. Chris Douglas-Roberts will be included the deal for the Celtics. They might also throw in a 2nd road pick.

It's not much different than what I constructed. Minus the pick swap and the Clippers actually gave up the arguably more valuable player between CJ Wilcox and Bullock.

Austin Rivers going to be the biggest bust to ever play for his father.

Austin Rivers going to get to play alongside the talented version of himself every game (Jamall Crawford).

Guess they are going to make Rivers the backup PG since they waived Farmar. Should be interesting to see if their bench unit gets any worse.
