Post Your Gobert or Mitchell Trade Ideas

So our defense against Denver, Toronto, Dallas, the Lakers, and Wolves was below the average of the rest of the league defending those teams?

IDK... go look it up yourself. I can tell you this year we are not as good defensively... I can tell you against certain types of players and teams Rudy is less effective. Average isn't the goal... elite is.

You watched the games right? It isn't obvious that Rudy isn't as good when he can't just drop to the paint? He's still good and useful in those matchups... or average... but we need elite.

I'm not trying to persuade you about anything. You were trying to challenge my statement that Rudy is very useful against 28/29 teams in the league.

Everyone performs worse against the elite teams. That's why they are elite.

The few games I've seen, Rudy has shown very good mobility for his height. Most teams don't do well with 5-out against us, because one of those five doesn't have true 3-point range.
 
Real GM Celtics forum participants held a poll on a hypothetical Gobert for Smart, Langford, Poitier and Ojeleye. Result: 36% in favor of trade, 64% opposed. Forum members display very polarized attitudes: some call Gobert underrated, at least one calls him most overrated player in NBA. Supermax an issue. Some would not trade Smart alone for him.

Good!! I hope this is how teams feel about him too so we don’t trade him.

Most Celtics fans I've seen are blind homers, and they've adopted Danny Ainge's expectations for lopsided trades. Utah wouldn't trade for Smart, Ojeleye, and the rest of that crap.

One team that would make a serious offer for Gobert would be Golden State, offering their lottery pick, a future pick and probably Wiggins' contract (which might go to a third team). They'd play him like their new Andrew Bogut.

I don't really want a trade, and I don't think Memphis would do this, but I'll throw this out there anyway. I'm assuming that if the Jazz feel like they have to make a trade, they won't be getting a star in return, but perhaps the best they could hope for is two very solid starter talents (plus someone whose fit might be better on a team like the Jazz):

Brandon Clarke, Jonas Valanciunas, Kyle Anderson

for

Gobert, Davis

Holy No
 
Three team trade

Golden state gets Gobert

Chicago gets Wiggins and GS lottery pick and additional 1st

Utah gets Paschall, La Vine, and Carter Jr.

Maybe toss in Conley for OPJ also

Since the consensus is Rudy iOS a top ten player that gets not even close to equal value and Mitchell as a top 20 player is seen as a more valuable trade asset, why are we talking only Rudy trades?
