Alternatively, if the team moves Carroll now, maybe they find a longer term defensive big wing option.
I could see PJ Tucker as a cheap rental. Or Aminu as a cheaper long term bench wing defender if the team finds a taker for Carroll. Not sure what they'd give up in either deal - maybe Sully and BeBe for Aminu would work to help POR shed salary and add a big. Same could go for Tucker, though ideally you hold onto assets to be able to pay the price it will cost to shed salaries this summer.
For us, we still need a home for Carroll and lost an asset in bebe that we can potentially attach to him. if it is Carroll that goes, I think it will be in the summer, to a team with cap space and reasonably paid vet SF in exchange for picks/prospects. So like Carroll + asset(s) for roco saves $15m+. Then use a 2nd Rd pick on a jarom blossomgame-type. Don't see Philly doing it but it's an example. The point is that I think it's all one move rather than sending assets to two places, at different times. More complicated, risky and expensive.
Anyway, we gotta see them play with Ibaka. JV might not get many mins. Carroll might play better than he has to this point.

At this point I'm jumping on any sequence of moves involving Carroll and lower-value prospects/picks that brings back a cheaper wing option.

Dunno if this was posted but it makes sense to trade Jimmy now so the bulls have time to tank. However, I think part of their thinking was getting the kings pick which seems out of the question now.
From a raps perspective, the boogie deal may have impacted the Jimmy trade which improves Boston and almost certainly it prevents the bulls from getting the kings lotto pick, which we already struggle with the bulls.
For all the guys pissed about boogie, we aren't the biggest loser and it might help us a bit too.

The Raps...Celts...Hawks.. Whiz are pretty good teams in the 2nd tier.Indy is OK. Detroit and the Bucks are better even if their records aren't as good as last year. The Bulls and Knicks and even the Heat aren't total crap but the sixers and Nets are still almost guaranteed win nights.
Out West the Warriors are the big dog. No surprise there...but the next group of Spurs Rockets Clips Grizz, OKC and Jazz are arguably on the same level as the easts 2nd tier except for the Spurs who just seem to be able to win when it matters...
The rest of the vaunted west are pretty crappy. Crappier than the east and that helps fuel some of those inflated records of the top 7. Suns, Kings, Lakers are really crappy on the same scale as the Hinkies and Nets. The timberpups are crappy because they just can't win games. The trailblazers were a one hit wonder last year and have returned to their level. The mavericks are bad as are the Pelicans even with cousins. The nuggets are on par with the Heat and Knicks but they are in the playoffs.
The flippant remarks about the "Least" will be far less than they once were...There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

Everytime we talk about this I say id like to hear a Carroll pitch but nothing comes. Maybe Dallas listens? I think if you want to move him ASAP it might cost yak or Delon and maybe a 1st too. Personally, I'm not pulling the trigger on that today, unless it's a great SF, which seems doubtful.
If JV kills it with Ibaka then yak is a good chip but I gotta see it to believe.

I'm just saying if the opportunity arises and you can trade 2nd rounders / Joseph (sorry, but wtf happened Cory?) / Siakam type of players along with Carroll and you get back a cheaper wing I'd do that because I don't foresee a better opportunity arising in the summer.
Plus i have my own bias of course. I think Carroll is just a poor player in almost every regard and if he wasn't making 15M i find it hard to imagine he'd even play.

I think it's probably 50/50 a negotiating stance and the truth. Jae Crowder has one of the best contracts in the NBA, so while his performance isn't star-like (but still great, he has one of the best on/off ratings on the Celtics), that chunk of cap gives outsized value for three full years after this. He earns $7.8mm in 2019-20, no player option.
Danny Ainge has certainly been known to refuse deals on very specific points, which is why Jaylen Brown is a Celtic.

Aldridge says one thing on Butler......Stein who is every bit as credible if not more than DA is saying this
Marc Stein: I’ve also heard that Michael Reinsdorf, who’s Jerry Reinsford son and is basically in charge, doesn’t want to trade Butler under any circumstance

We just need to hope DMC plays better imo. He'll be easier to move with better play, less $/yrs and the cap rising.
I'm down for whatever sully + 2nd buys us right now. If we're trading a 1st then it better be more than a Tucker type.

Man if only these guys had become available last year. I bet we could have sold the sizzle of the Knicks pick, and Jonas before there was a centre glut. Now that their value is diminished I don't think we have the assets to nab a guy like Butler or George.
