Hmmm how can we possibly get worse on defense? Oh go trade for a midget.

There better be a shit load more assets coming back.
 
Wow. Will be interesting to see what more info comes out as we need to get a damn sight more than IT for him!
 
We need to get at least Jaylen Brown from that. And I'm still not sure that makes us any better.
 
It has to be more than IT. I figure it is IT, Crowder, young player (Tatum or Jalen Brown) and a pick, or is that too much?
 
Ummm Boston is loaded with picks.

I did not know they were set up for so long. Look at this guys

If we can work out Tatum, Isiah, and Laker's pick im good. But we can probably get 2 picks out of that because at the end of the day Tatum is unproven. Now they most likely want us to take Crowder too. While he would be useful against GS, id rather get a younger guy back or get another pick from BOS. Crowder isn't old by any means at 27 but hes never going to be anything other than what he is right now.
 
Crowder, despite the whole JR flap in 15, would be a perfect Cleveland "hustle" guy...
 
I'm honestly not going to hold any sort of opinion until I see what else would be going from Boston to Cleveland beyond Thomas. Boston has a ton of assets. It could be Thomas and a whole lot of great pieces or it could be Thomas and little else. There's so much in between. Just too early to opine.

I would push for Crowder since he is on a good contract. Also remember IT is coming off a hip injury and is on a one year contract. We need to make sure whatever else we get is worth it if he has lingering issues or doesn't resign after this season.
 
I really don't want Thomas at all. He is so much of a liability on defense. I would start Rose over him, and have IT be the 6th man.

Anyhow, if Thomas is included in a potential deal, I can't see Celtics including Tatum. So, we best get nothing less than something like Thomas, Brown, Crowder, and a 1st. If we can't get Tatum, then Brown has to be a must.
 
Well for those of you who were saying Isaiah Thomas is better than Kyrie... I still disagree but if you're right and the Cavs get Crowder + Picks as well, then I guess this is a super deal. Personally I would see if I could unload this entire lot for Bledsoe & Jackson, but that would be a good haul even if they keep it.
