dborlackParticipantI read a report online via Howard Beck, that said something about Westbrook going to the C’s is a strong possibility. I put together a potential trade and I think it would definitely be something interesting for Okc as a return.
Westbrook and Roberson for Smart bradley crowder and nets pick.
Celtics:
Starters: IT, westbrook, Brown, amir, horford
Bench: rozier, young/hunter, roberson, jerebko, olynykOKC:
Starters: Smart, Dipo, Crowder, Kanter, Adams
Bench: Payne, Bradley, Singler, McGary, SabonisWhat y’all think?

Lebron’s HairlineParticipantBradley would be redundant for OKC when they have a similar guy in Oladipo, I’m sure OKC will try to get Brown in the trade but knowing Danny he won’t overpay

pullapoParticipantTrading the Celts top 4 tradeable assets for one year of Westbrook is a bit much dont you think? What leverage does OKC really have when he is leaving after the season anyways. Also, this trade wouldnt really make the C’s any better. Theyd be giving up theyre defensive identity and two of the best contracts in the league. Yes, Westbrook is a great player and is much better than anyone on their roster. However, making this trade wouldnt make them contenders but would gut the team of future pieces they would need to hope to contend when GSW isnt dominating anymore. Now might be the worst time in leage history to gut your future for the present.

jerb2011ParticipantNone of those players in that trade impress me. The only valuable part of that trade is the Nets’ draft pick in Sam Presti’s hands. Correct me if I’m wrong, but none of those players have great potential. This is also all speculation and same would agree to a better trade like D’Angelo Russell and Brandon Ingram and their first n 2017 for Russell Westbrook. Or to the Spurs for Dejounte Murray, Kyle Anderson, and thier 2017 first.

thaprodigyParticipantWait a minute… You think a Spurs offer of Dejounte Murray, Kyle Anderson, & their 2017 1st (all but guaranteed to be in the bottom half of the 1st round) is better than an offer of at least Marcus Smart, Jae Crowder, and essentially a guaranteed top 5 pick? That’s a delusional statement.

HitsterParticipantSam Presti might have pushed for Isaiah Thomas in the trade instead of another couple of players but with Westbrook being an FA next summer and Ainge to deal with his hands are slightly tied. Presti might have looked for Brown and one of the Nets picks as the deal perhaps, that was effectively the asking price the Nets had to meet to get D-Will from the Jazz.
If I was Presti I’d ask for the option of either Nets 2017 pick swap or 2018 first rounder, so he may have more options.
If the Thunder do lose Westbrook and having lost KD and traded Ibaka, they will still have a good young core and a likely high draft pick from the Nets to use so they won’t be in terrible shape.

treytalkssports.comParticipantAs a Celtics’ fan, I got a bad feeling that Presti would want Isaiah Thomas. I love that little guy.
Little guy. Good contract. Great production. Replaces Westbrook as the offensive initiator. Pretty good at it too. But primarily I think Thomas fits the chip-on-the-shoulder personality that matches OKC’s small market mentality. On top of that, he would be a fan -avorite from day one due to his smile and fearlessness. They need a guy like that to sooth the fanbase in this process.
Thomas and 17 Nets pick is probably the starting package. I think OKC would want a good young prospect too. Mickey? Yabusele? Zizic? Rozier?
In the case that Westbrook is willing to take a Harden-like contract extension right after, as a Celtic fan, I’d be willing to give a package of the Memphis 1st, Clipper 1st, and Smart (Smart went to college at OKST-the fan base may like him) OR just a package of Brown.

BiggysmallsParticipantI think a good trade for both clubs would be Jaylen Brown/Marcus Smart/Brooklyn 2017 swap pick/Brooklyn 2018 swap pick for Westbrook.
It’s steep. Those Brooklyn picks could be golden and Brown could turn into a very good player.
But for Boston, you get Westbrook and assuming he is signing long term – I don’t do that trade without assurances that he is – you now have your alpha with a ready made roster around him plus cap space to pursue another star piece if you want one. He’s a top-five player in the league. There’s almost no such thing as an overpayment. And if he’s as good as Boston fans think he is, they’ll realize they aren’t getting him without selling the farm a little bit. But the Cs are positioned well enough that they can do that and still have a very good team in place.
For the Thunder, you get two young controllable players who could flourish with more playing time and you get Brooklyn picks which means you could have two top-7 picks next year to get a jump start on the rebuild.
Boston: Westbrook-Bradley-Crowder-Johnson-Horford
IT-Hunter/Young-*Insert SF*-Jerebko-Olynyk.
OKC: Smart-Oladipo-Roberson-Kanter-Adams
Payne-Singler-Brown-Illyasove-Sabonis

IndianaBasketballParticipantTo me a trade to the Celtics isn’t a matter of "if", just "when". It’s a no brainer decision for Westbrook to agree to signing an extension with them. He’ll make more money that way. Plus, the Celtics can trade for him without gutting their core. The Thunder would get the young players and picks they need to help with their rebuild.
Once this move is completed, the Celtics are no doubt the 2nd best team in the East. With Boston’s market, their tradition, their coaching staff, current roster and their future flexibility… It’s just an easy decision for Westbrook in my opinion.

Magic JordanParticipantAm I crazy to say that if I were the Celtics I would rather give up IT in a deal before Marcus Smart?
Smart is a head and shoulders better defender, team friendly deal and while he may never be a prolific scorer he will be a legitimate backup and someone who can play alongside Westbrook.
I love what IT can do with his size, but if we are being real he is best with the ball in his hands and it wouldn’t be ideal to play him and Westbrook on the court together.
If OKC was insisting on IT I would swap him in for Smart without asking questions.

David..PaulsParticipantIf westbrook is willing to commit to signing an extension (extension signed once he trade happens which is unlikely) with Boston, then I think a deal of;
I. Thomas, Smart, Crowder, Brown and the nest pick next year is fair for Westbrook and Roberson.
Westbrook, Bradley, Crowder, Amir, Horford.

Andv1 WaitingParticipantMy Guess is Presti holds onto Russ but if they DO TRADE him this is what could happen:
If you send Russell(I would make them take Kyle Singler also) to the Celtics is if you want him out east and to go full rebuild..
You would trade for Jaylen B,Avery Bradley and at least 3 picks(Both brooklyn picks and the celtics 2018 pick bare min sort of deal to get talks even started)…It is risky to give so many picks but that is what I’m guessing it would take for a top 5 player entering their prime to be poached away from the thunder..
However if the Thunder did Trade I would prefer it was with the Nuggets(It may not be ideal that they are out West though):
Denver gives up: Emanuel Mudiay,Danilo Galinari(who also could be a free agent next offseason/slightly injury prone but very talented) and Jamal Murray..
It may not seem as much longterm value as a celtics deal. But short term there is more experience and a little more potential for right now that could vault them back in the mix before you knew it..Vs Celtics deal which is more about future depth and doesn’t really fit the rest of their current assets timeline..
for
Thunder gives up Russell Westbrook and Kyle Singler
The reason Denver does this deal they get their star they have been searching for since Mello and they still have depth even with giving all these pieces up and could be back in the playoffs pretty quickly/may actually contend..Which may convince Russell to stay on+ have a coach in Malone who could probably handle Russell W a little better than stevens due to having worked with Boogie Cousins who has a firey personality also..
The reason the Thunder does this deal they get 2 young players high potential players on Cheap deals(Murray and Mudiay),fill a need in Danilo and send Russell to a deep team that could contend with him on it..
Which keeps both people happy as you have done right by Russell W and got some good talent in return
Both Starting Lineups:
OKC:
Adams,Danilo,Ersan,Victor O,Mudiay
Bench:Kanter,Sabonis,Robes,Murray and Waiters(if kept and have him play point)or Payne if waiters is traded/not brought back..
Denver:Jokic/Justif,Faried,Wilson Chandler,Harris,Russell W
Bench:Jokic or Justif,Arthur,Barton,Mailik Beasley and Jameer Nelson
