The only advantage a team who trades for Brown has in free agency is that they'll have his bird rights. As soon as he is traded everyone can offer him the same money, other teams would just have to have the cap space for it. Not worth the gamble in my opinion.

What teams will have supermax capapace in 24?

Do we want to pay him that much?

The only team that can offer him the supermax is Boston, NO other team, and it appears Boston does not want to pay that and Tatum is due his supermax next summer which he will likely get. So Browm may be odd man out. And there is no supermax sign and trade

If I had to keep Brown, I'd rather roll the dice on him signing than take Jovic, Jaquez and other garbage.

It's only max capspace because if he gets traded he won't have been with his new team for two years which disqualifies him for the supermax. How many teams do I think would make room to sign Jaylen Brown to a max contract? A helluva lot.
 
I like Brown just not convinced he’s a super max type of player. But would like to have him on team :)

What complicates it is Brown being repped by the same agent as Dame.

If Goodwin didn't accept a better deal from Portland because he was butthurt over the Blazers' ending with Dame, he'd lose clients. He's representing Brown's best interests here, not Dame's if he's negotiating a Brown deal with the Vulcans.

Yes, agents, GMs and players are people, but if you're constantly holding grudges and letting situations erupt, you're going to have a hard time being at the top. To think Goodwin wouldn't make the best deal for Brown with Portland because of Dame would mean Goodwin wasn't doing the best for his client, had lost sight of his goal and compromised his professionalism. He's not going to do that. People are overstating the longterm effects of Dame being unhappy.

I did that drive from Corvallis to Boston two summers ago…with 3 kids! But it was actually fun with a Yellowstone stop and other breaks. I don’t live in Boston, ghat would suck. I’m an hour away, in Gloucester on the coast. It’s been great.

I drove from LA to NYC many years ago. We stopped at a lot of cool places too. Vegas, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Mt Rushmore, Chicago, Cleveland (where I signed autographs at a Blockbuster), and Foxwoods. Fun trip.

It's all pointless to discuss because we won't be able to offer Brown more than any other team. He will only be eligible for the regular max and not the super max because he won't have been with the team for the requisite two seasons. I think there would be too many teams willing to clear space to sign him to a max deal for us to take this gamble.

Gee, what a shame.

You signed a contract, Dame.

So disappointed in Dame. I have more respect for LeBron now. He honors his contracts and doesn’t force trades. Why wouldn’t Dame want to play in Boston? He’d have a chance to win there.

Boston? Great.

Without Brown? Nope.

I don't want Brown but a 3rd team would and we could get a lot of great young players in that deal.

With that said, BOS without Brown may not be any worse than MIA depending on how many picks they have available.

Justin Champagnie, Sam Hauser, and Malcom Brogdon isn't really worse then MIA's crap players. Of course the point would be to do better not just as well...
 
Windy already explained in context to Brown and Maxey, teams are publicly saying they aren't including those players because if the trades don't go through, their value won't finish.

Boston has been trying to trade Brown since before prohibition.

Boston would include picks even if they sent out Brown and they have a bunch.
 
Robert Williams and more guards that we don't need are about all they can offer without Brown.
 
I will admit that injury issues and all, I am a big Robert Williams fan. I have no idea why Coach Joe Maz was yo-yoing his minutes around against the Heat. Outside of Derrick White, Robert Williams was the best thing they had going that series. And the Time Lord was the backbone and simply carried that defense in their run in 2022.

He's only 25... this may be hypocrisy to some here (especially given his legitimate injury concerns), but I like him more as an addition to this roster than Claxton, Maxey, Herro or any other realistically discussed "young piece" that's out there.

I don't necessarily love the Boston pick situation, but if you can get Williams & filler plus 3-4 picks... it's not nothing... but again, I recognize that I am much higher on Williams than probably most here.
 
It has to be Brown..we're not trading for picks Brogdon and Pritchard and scraps...Miami can beat that offer
 
If Boston is just posturing on the Jaylen Brown stuff (because WOW would that be an expensive roster to add Dame, keep Brown, and extend Porzingis), I would also be intrigued by deal with a Houston type team in which we might collect both Robert Williams from Boston and young assets/picks from Houston. The question then would become is would Boston be willing to give up Brown and Williams (who may be redundant with Porzy and Horford?) to get Dame?

A framework like:
Boston receives: Dame and a 1st from Houston
Houston receives: Jaylen Brown
Portland receives: Robert Williams, Jabari Smith, filler, and two firsts from Houston?

It would be a package lighter on the picks, but you'd have a potential frontcourt moving forward to pair with Simons and Sharpe.
 
Dame would also be so valuable as a leader for Boston, especially after they moved Smart. Everyone was screaming to trade Brown after the playoffs, why would they resist when they could nab Dame??
 
I saw this one but I apologized if it was posted before:

Boston Celtics Receiʋe: Daмian Lillard

Chicago Bulls Receiʋe: Jaylen Brown

New Orleans Pelicans Receiʋe: Jaмes Harden

Philadelphia 76ers Receiʋe: DeMar DeRozan, Alex Caruso

Portland Trail Blazers Receiʋe: CJ McColluм, RoƄert Williaмs, Dyson Daniels, 2024 First-Round Pick (BOS), 2024 First-Round Pick (NOP), 2026 First-Round Pick (BOS), 2030 First-Round Pick (CHI)
 
Just a quick thought exercise.

If a theoretical Brown deal were to arise around September, and the Celtics were amenable to either:

1) Brown + filler for Dame

Or

2) Brown for Simons + Scoot

Which deal would you do?

(Assume Brown would sign on with an extension as part of the negotiation in either scenario).

I would not trade Scoot. Not now. I'm full on the Scoot train. I'd trade Dame for Brown and then flip Brown for picks/young players.

Yup, what we have learned from the Dame era - you do not trade stars or potential stars that want to be in Portland! #BAM
