Blake Griffin to the Boston Celtics

[BigKen]

The Sporting News is reporting that a three team trade may be done as early as tonight. (7/14) The teams invcoled are the Boston Celtics, Sacramento Kings and San Diego Clippers.
The likely target for the Celtics, according to front-office sources, is Clippers forward Blake Griffin. The Clippers have been weighing trading Griffin all season , and the possibility of a three-team package involving Sacramento sending Rudy Gay to the Clippers has emerged. The Celtics would give up some number of their upcoming draft picks, but opposing front-office members say they don't want to give up either Brooklyn pick Boston can own in the next two years.

If Blake Griffin leaves LA for that toilet, basketball fans the world over will lose all respect for him.

...per my sources.

 

[LogicMan]

Don't give up the 2017 pick Danny

If he does go there...wonder how it will fair where he has to be the #1 scorer and go-to scorer...idk

 

[Hambombs]

San diego clippers.... Lmao

 

[tducey]

Interesting, could be huge for the Celtics.

 

[eaglesnut]

You need a more reliable source than this...

Why would the Clippers do this trade? Rudy Gay lol...that dude IMO is very overrated. The Kings and Celtics have reasons to do the trade but I feel like this would be bad for the Clippers unless they get the 2017 Brooklyn pick out of it too.

The Clippers would do the trade because Danny Ainge is a moron

This trade makes zero sense for the Clippers. I am no Blake fan but Blake is multiple levels better player than Gay. If I am the Celtics, I would trade that Nets pick with the quickness for Blake.

 

[OutlawImmortal]

You ain't winning shit with a player like Blake though, why do you think the Clippers wanted him gone?

Did Blake Griffin have a lobotomy in the off-season or what? People are treating this guy like he's dead weight.

The dude was hurt for almost the entire year and when he did play, he was still an absolute monster. He's STILL a top 10 player in the NBA. I don't get why the Clips would rush to trade him. If anything, you trade CP3 and build around Blake.

The guy is about as dumb as it gets for NBA players with his amount of talent. Although a lobotomy would explain his behavior over the last couple of seasons.
