JJ Back in Boston?

The hottest rumor now comes from a poster on RealGM who has been checked out by the mods as a reliable source with ties to the team.

Wait...so the C's are looking at who?!...I hope its not Conley

IMO he's not the best PG in the draft, Id take Javaris Crittenton over him in a second.

I don't think you read that at all Mike.

The C's would draft Conley and trade him to Atlanta with Theo and another player for Joe Johnson and #11.

I don't see anyway Atlanta actually does that trade, but whatever...that'd be a sweet deal for the C's and would likely kill all anti-Danny talk for at least awhile. Getting a premier multi-dimensional player for 6 spots in a draft, their expiring contract and another player? Only way that's terrible is if the other player they give up is Al Jefferson. It'd be "not a great trade at all" if the other player was Gerald or Perk.

I don't really know why they'd give up JJ for just Theo, a pick, and MAYBE another player.Seems too good to be true. Gotta give a little to get usualy.

I'd do Wally, Gomes, and the pick for it. I mean that seems to me like a better deal for them. And I'm anti wally, and like gomes but I mean we are stacked with young guys anyway. I have no problem cutting him loose.

Rajon
Joe Johnson
Paul Pierce
Al Jefferson
Kendrick or a new face via trade\draft. . .Or if its a new face, it can be a PF and shift Al to Center.

it'd be great to swing that deal so long as al, paul rondo and green are not involved.
the #5 pick is very nice pick let's not forget

JJ could run some point too if Allen is healthy and Green's game matures.

Ben, the Hawks want THEO. They actually need him to play (the C's do too, but apparently they're fine getting rid of him). They're familiar with Theo and Theo would probably like to go back to Atlanta. They have plenty of swingmen, they have no use for Wally.

The only issue is that Wyc will have to pay the luxury tax to re-sign Jefferson.

Wyc doesn't have any problem paying the luxury tax though.
