This bench...

I really like green. Liked him back when everyone thought he would never develop into anything, I just always liked him. But Butler, although I like him, is aging and has had a bunch of injuries. Not sure Butler will be there at playoff time, but it might be worth the risk.
 
I don't like Butler. Green would be amazing. Blake is sensational. He had 6 assists in the 4th quarter and was a +27. We were breathtakingly good when he was on the court.

Blake/Kaman are great. No complaints at all. I just want a wing like Green. I think that would cement us as a true contender.

Yeah a 3/2 wing solidifies a perfect 8-man rotation for the playoffs. I'll be honest, I think Crabbe might be that guy in two years, but this team won't be the same in two years.

Uncle Paul has got to be thinking it's go time. And you know what's nice? Damn near every contract is RLEC this year. Someone will bite.
 
What could we realistically offer Phoenix for Green? Id probably give them our first round pick. Yolo

Yup. Green is perfect too. He can shoot, he's athletic, he can slash. He is tall enough to play the two or the three. He is the ideal bench wing that we need.

Like I said, I think it needs to be part of a threeway deal. We don't have enough to offer them. They need to move one of Dragic/Bledsoe/Thomas and Dragic is a free agent. He's the best option right now to move.
 
Can you imagine the call from the owner to the GM afterwards? "you want me to trade Green for WHAT?"
 
I really wish we would have went hard after Avery Bradley this offseason. He would be awesome coming off our bench.
 
Okay I tweaked it.

Dragic/Robinson to Detroit.

Monroe/CJ/Wright to Phoenix.

Green/Butler to Portland.
 
Jeff Green, I'd switch out CJ with Barton though.

Jeff Green would be awesome, but I don't think they'd bite. Gerald Green is a bench player. He has value, but he's a free agent and I think a few decent young guys might be able to pry him away.

Jeff Green is gonna bounce out of Boston when he gets the chance. My guess is he wants to play on a contender in his prime not a rebuilding crapshoot.

I think Barton/Robinson/Wright and a future lottery protected 1st could get it done.

Maybe. I would be all about it. Would Green be happy coming off the bench though? We know Gerald is okay with the bench. We know he's a three point shooter (which Stotts would love.) I'm completely on board with either.

Well, what would you rather have, 20-25 minutes (playing against backups, while racking up 6MOTY consideration) on a championship contender or 35-40 minutes a night on a BAD eastern team?

Some people would say option A, others would say option B. Not everyone is motivated by winning. There are other motivators such as money and prestige. I have no idea how Jeff Green feels. It's easy to assume that he wants to win, but I can't say that for sure. He's going to want a payday and he might get it. There's a real lack of wings in the league right now.

He has another year on his deal and he is making ~9mil a year, I think it would benefit his future contract status to be a stud bench player for a championship team (cough* Odom cough*) than a guy who puts up as many shots as he wants on a team going nowhere (cough* Kevin Martin cough*).

Well, like I said, I would love to have either Green.
