Clippers offering Bledsoe, Butler to Celtics for Garnett

[dipship31]

What about something like this:

Bledsoe/Mo
Hayward/Foye
Marvin/Butler
Millsap/Bass
Favors/Kanter

 

[Gyp Rosetti]

With 8 minutes remaining against the Celtics, Bledsoe has 20pts, 9asts, 5rbs, 1blk .. all day.....

And once again, the Clips lost with him as their starting pg.

It is getting harder to ignore that fact.

Sorry, didnt have time to read all the 150ish posts,

but am i interpreting this wrong? I thought Garnett had a no-trade clause?

 

[Getting Traded]

OP, that's too much for Bledsoe. He's good but not that good. Besides, not sure we have anything that they'd want. Paul wouldn't get many minutes as they have Odom to backup Griffin; maybe Al could fit in as a low post scorer. Would they want Burks who would never get off the bench based on their current roster?

And once again, the Clips lost with him as their starting pg.

and the Celtics won, again, without Rondo.

I guess we cab deduce that both Rondo and Bledsoe suck. Also, CP3 sucked when in NO.

Here was my idea in another thread:

Thanks for the input. How about this:

https://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=b93v37j

The changes are this:

Utah gives up Al and Paul.
Boston gives up Rondo and Pierce
Brooklyn gives up Humphries
Clippers give up Bledsoe and dead weight (Hill, Odom, Green)

Utah:
Rondo - Mo - Tinsley - Watson
Foye - Hayward - Burks - Murphy
Williams - Carroll
Favors - Humphries - Evans
Kanter

Clips look like this:
Paul - Billups
Crawford - Barnes
Pierce - Butler
Griffin - Thompkins
Jordan - Turiaf - Hollins

Boston:
Bledsoe - Terry - Bradley
Lee - Barbosa
Odom - Green - Hill
Garnett - Bass - Sullinger - Wilcox
Big Al - Melo - Collins

The Nets basically swap Humphries for Millsap.

The Clippers gain a superstar and keep Crawford.

Boston gets their superstar with Al (I know, I know, but you can sell him as a guy to go next to Garnett), young potential pg, and cap room next summer.

New Jersey gets Millsap for nothing.

The Jazz get Rondo, and keep the big 4. I think the Jazz take the biggest risk out of the group. They give up two known commodities for potential in Favors and Kanter and Rondo might demand out if it doesn't pan out quickly.

This one has Garnett instead of Pierece going to LA.

I like a lot.

Something that hasn't been mentioned (that I have seen) about Bledsoe is how he has the badass factor. He'd be a great addition to our young guys because he has a "let's kick the enemy's ***" mentality. I think we sorely lack that guy on this team.

Yea, a little bit of the Garnett **** you attitude.

Yeah... KG's on another level, though.

Paul>>>> Odom!!!

Odom sucks this year... With Paul they would have a great big sixth man to go with Crawford!!

He does have a no trade clause. These are all assuming he'd waive it to go to LA for another championship run. I don't know what the people are thinking that have him coming to Utah in a proposed trade.
