1.Trade Courtney Lee for big man Ian Mahinmi?


With the Celtics at 13-12, the trade rumors and possibilities are starting to
pour in.

In a recent BS report, Bill Simmons suggested trading Courtney Lee for Pacers
big man Ian Mahinmi. The Celtics could use a rebounder and when Avery Bradley
returns next month the team will have a logjam at two-guard.

Mahinmi is averaging 4.8 ppg and 3.7 rpg for Indiana this year in just under
16 minutes per. Those numbers are far from impressive and if that trade
happened, I just can't see him taking many minutes away from Jared Sullinger.

Both teams would like the trade as it addresses each one's needs, but it
would be a trade of depth and Mahinmi would just join the bench. If the
Celtics trade for a big man, I hope they package Lee with another player
(Bass?) and maybe a pick or two to get a real contributor.



2.Is a Bass, Varejao, Perkins 3-way trade in the cards?


Note: This post is written by someone who would totally be OK with the Perk
trade if Shaq wasn't injured.

It is definitely not news at this point that the Celtics need a center. Darko
Milicic's departure for family reasons is partly to blame, but there is more
to it. Our rebounding has been worse than last year for certain stretches,
and our interior defense is, hmm, how shall I put this, terrible. Moreover, a
recent story on CelticsHub that quotes Celtics GM Danny Ainge suggests that
the C's might be giving up on the small lineup idea, and the injection of
Collins into the starting lineup indicates that that's not just random talk.

Now, one problem with needing a center is that it's really difficult to find
one in a time when the position of center has been dropped from All-star
ballots. Anderson Varejao and Marcin Gortat have been suggested so far, but
let's be brutally honest, the Celtics don't have what it takes to land them
(I mean we do have assets, but I don't want to part with Rajon Rondo, Avery
Bradley or, to an extent, Jared Sullinger as they will most likely be the
core of the team in 2.5 years) When I leave out the brutality in my honesty,
I still reach the conclusion that the Celtics might not have enough to pull a
two-team trade due to the low value of potential assets (unless Ainge is a
Jedi and can convince other GMs that Courtney Lee, right now just another
guard in a sea of guards, will gain his corner 3 ability back or that Jeff
Green, will turn into a superstar as a starter, but remember that I'm being
honest here.)

However, there's another team that could pursue Varejao: OKC, and they have a
center (Kendrick Perkins) that they are more than ready to part with.
However, his current trade value is low because the numbers he's been putting
up are not ideal this season. Yet there is another team who would be
interested in his services because, well, he would still be a terrific
upgrade over the current center they have.

Ok, forget fancy schmancy prose, let me cut to the chase. OKC gets Varejao,
Cavs get Brandon Bass and picks from any team (OKC has a really sweet one
from Raptors) and we get back Perkins.

It's difficult to find win-win trades, yet this one is a win-win-win for all
teams so it is indeed realistic. OKC gets a center they are actually pursuing
with a great contract, and they might have to give up less assets because
there is another team involved. The Cavaliers are going nowhere this season,
but they have a really talented core. They would most likely not be
interested in a guard because they're already fully invested in that
department, but they definitely need a scoring punch for their bench. Here
comes Bass, a serviceable big man who is a true professional. And they can
use their picks to get a better center next year as they have nothing to lose
this year. In fact, they might be better off losing since they're already
5-22. The Celtics like their current center Jason Collins simply because he
sets hard picks and is tough. Well, that's Perkins' expertise. Moreover, they
get a younger upgrade who's already quite familiar with the system.

Why wouldn't this work? As Mayberry puts it in the article I have linked
above, OKC might avoid doing two semi-blockbuster trades in one season since
they are already strong contenders, especially one that involves an
injury-prone player. The Cavaliers might find a more attractive suitor, which
is always an option (or they might make an absurd trade with the Lakers,
because that's every GM's dream apparently). The Celtics might click in a few
months so Ainge might get cold feet, or it might be too emotional of a move
for either party. You never know.

However, one thing is certain. We're in need of a center, and sometimes the
best option is a bit ironic. Even though we might dream about landing
Varejao, Gortat, Josh Smith etc. there's a more realistic option out there,
and as emotional as it would be, swallowing it might not hurt us at all.

對他印象比較深是在小牛的時候，打的好像還ok，6尺11吋，不太熟這隻

至於Perk那三方交易...有搞頭嗎...以我們處境要雙贏三贏感覺太難啦
