rumours from this week about Melo/Griffin/Celtics.

seems more like blogger writing than real rumor, but interesting to think about.

Key part:
Here's the proposal:

Los Angeles gets: Carmelo Anthony, Avery Bradley

New York gets: Amir Johnson, Jamal Crawford, 2018 unprotected Celtics first-round pick, 2018 protected Grizzlies first (via Boston), 2019 unprotected Clippers first

Boston gets: Blake Griffin, Paul Pierce


My notes are Griffin has been injury prone in the past few years and he has an early termination for next year at $21M or so. He could be a few month rental, if it doesn't work here.

I could see this idea helping the Cs, but very much worry about the mention that Griffin could opt out

yea Amir and Bradley along with our own 2018 first and Memphis future fist rounder is a low price for Blake, as long as he's here for longer than a few months
