Here's my proposed Boston trade:

Butler and Gorgui to Boston.

Hayward, Yabusele, Sacramento's 2019 1st rd pk (top 1 protected) & Grizzlies' 2019 1st rd pk (top 8 protected, then top 6 and eventually unprotected in 2021).

Hes a combo guard that made a name for himself off that short playoff stint. I don't think he's that good and definitely not at the price tag he thinks he will be worth next offseason.

It's going unnnoticed, but jaylen brown has been horrible this year.

I see him as a PG more than SG but I hunk he can defend both positions to some extent depending on matchups. This is the 2nd year in a row he is hitting his 3's. Looking at basketball reference...he is taking almost 24% of his shots from 16' to the 3 point line!!!!! Lol I have no idea why.

Wishful thinking but would be nice to see Miami, Houston and Boston all engaged in trade talks. I just can't believe Tibs is the one making these decisions. Embarrassing.

Lol. Yes. And if the Celtics say yes, I'm going to insist that they include Tatum. :)

I would have to consider finding a new team to follow -- probably the Nuggets -- if the Wolves traded Jimmy Butler to the Celtics for a deal headlined by Terry Rozier in any capacity.

Rozier is one of the most overrated players in the league and I still don't understand why.

I would join you in moving on to another team. A deal like that would be probably be the worst deal in Wolves history - and that's saying something!!
