Celtics-Clippers talks to send Doc Rivers, Kevin Garnett to L.A. stall

 

Discussions over a blockbuster deal to send Boston Celtics star Kevin Garnett to the Los Angeles Clippers – with Doc Rivers as coach – reached an impasse on Saturday afternoon, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

The Clippers are willing to part with center DeAndre Jordan and a first-round draft pick for Garnett – and the rights to hire Rivers – but so far have refused to include Boston's desire for point guard Eric Bledsoe into the package, sources said.

Since the February trade deadline, Bledsoe had been a part of talks for Garnett, and more recently, Rivers, but that changed Saturday morning, league sources said. The Clippers were no longer willing to part with Bledsoe, sources told Y! Sports.

If the deal completely falls apart, Celtics management and Rivers are still committed to his return to Boston as coach.

Boston general manager Danny Ainge has requested Bledsoe and a second first-round pick, but all involved believe that Bledsoe's inclusion into the package would get a deal done.

Celtics and Clippers management – as well as Rivers – want a finality to these discussions in short order, sources involved told Yahoo! Sports. No one involved has shown an appetite for these talks to linger without resolution.

Garnett, 37, will waive his no-trade clause to leave Boston only if Rivers joins him as coach, sources said. Rivers still needed to talk to Clippers star Chris Paul about his free-agency plans this summer, sources told Yahoo! Sports. It is believed that the arrival of Rivers and Garnett would be the final moves needed to assure Paul to re-signing with the Clippers in July.

Rivers has three years and $21 million left on his Celtics contract, but doesn't want to stay in Boston unless the Celtics are willing to bring back Garnett and Paul Pierce to avoid rebuilding for another year, sources said. Boston will not let Rivers coach or work anywhere in the NBA for the duration of his contract without compensation, sources said.

The Clippers have shown a willingness to give Rivers a contract extension that's competitive with his Boston salary, sources said. Throughout this awkward process, Boston has told Rivers that it still wants him to return as coach should the Clippers discussions never reach fruition, sources said.

While the Clippers had the wistful thought of trying to arrange a sign-and-trade to acquire Dwight Howard for Bledsoe and Blake Griffin, the Lakers have flatly rejected the idea, sources said.

"They'll never do it," one source with direct knowledge of the conversations told Yahoo! Sports.

So far, the Lakers have rejected every possible sign-and-trade scenario for Howard, sources said. The possibility of trading him within the Staples Center is probably the least palatable scenario of all should they be forced to lose him for nothing in July and finally do agree to a sign-and-trade possibility.

Bledsoe can be a restricted free agent in 2014 and it will be difficult to pay him a market value with Paul on the roster.

Well I am not surprise that the C's want Jordan, Bledsoe and a couple of picks for KG and Coach Rivers. Obviously, they just want to maximize what they can get for their "prize assets"

 

I just wonder if Ainge thinks that the Clips are "desperate" to hire Rivers as their coach and to get KG for some quick fix at the slot.

[fatchubs]

I always believe that Ainge was on panic mode when he signed both Lee and Terry last summer due to the "unexpected" departure of Ray Allen. Now he is trying to get rid either one of them to the Clips via the propose trade that will involve KG.

Clippers Walk Away from Deal with the Celtics to acquire KG and Doc. Hindi pumayag sa demands ng C's. So what's next sa "rebuilding"? O baka naman tuloy tuloy pa rin ang KG, PP, Rondo trio ...at kalimutan muna ang rebuilding

[idolkita01]

Na tuloy na yung deal. Nakuha na nila si Doc. Next na yan si KG.

[alberto_]

umalis na si doc.

may nabasa kasi ako na hinamon ng suntukan ni doc si rr sa practice session.

pero isang dahilan lang yan.

ngayon sa clippers may say si doc pagdating sa operations ng team.

[fatchubs]

Yes si coach rivers ay siya rin head ng basketball operations ng clips.

Now that the celtics will be in a rebuilding mode, it seems kg wants to "jump ship" as he is willing to waive his no trade clause to go to the clippers. Nakakatawa lang kasi nun umalis si Allen parang pinersonal ni kg tapos ngayon willing din pala siya lumayas basta contender.

The Celtics and Nets are closing in on a blockbuster trade that would send Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Jason Terry from Boston to Brooklyn, according to multiple reports.

 

Yahoo! Sports reports that the Nets propose to send Gerald Wallace, Kris Humphries, Reggie Evans, Tornike Shengelia, Keith Bogans, one additional player and three first-round picks in exchange for the trio of Celtics. The picks would come in the 2014, 2016 and 2018 drafts. The New York Timesconfirmed that the talks had progressed to the “ownership level” on Thursday, while the Boston Globe reported that the agreement was “close.”

 

mangyari na kaya ito???

 

"mas gugustuhin ko pang matalo ang celtics kesa sa mawala ang sila kg at pp pati na rin si jet"

Will this proposed blockbuster trade change the landscape in the East?

[fatchubs]

Mukhang mangyayari na nga ...ayon sa nabasa ko pumayag na si KG sa trade to the Nets at nagkaroon na ng agreement in principle.

 

Hay si KG talaga ... last season napabalitang may interest sa kanya ang Nets pero hindi daw siya papayag mapunta roon. May sinabi pa siyang he live and die green. Pero ngayong "rebuilding" na ang C's mukha yatang gustong gusto na niyang makalipat sa ibang team na contender and forget about being Green na lang muna

[alberto_]

its all about winning after all.

sino ba namang tao ang mas gugustuhing matalo kesa manalo.

supalpal na naman yung isa dyan. bigla nawala sa ere. simula ng matalo ang lahat ng teams na ginusto nya na magchampion.

2 magkasunod na nba season na ito.

[fatchubs]

Yes its all about winning ...of course "personal choice" yan ng tao if he wants to play with the same team or move to another.

 

Ang akin lang, natatawa ako kay KG sa pamemersonal niya kay Ray Allen. As in hindi nga niya "pinapansin" mula nun lumipat si Ray sa Miami. May statement pa siyang I live and die green. And now that the C's have started to rebuild, hindi ba interest din niya ang tiningnan niya? Kung last season firm siya na hindi siya papayag mai-trade sa Nets, ngayon pumayag na din siya.

 

Isa lang masasabi ko sa taong ito ... hindi dugong Celtics ang umiiral sa kanya. Napakasigurista ni KG ... nakita na natin yan dati nun pumayag siyang mapunta sa C's para mabuo ang big 3 at ngayon payag siyang iwanan ang C's dahil mas malakas nga naman ang kanyang pupuntahan.

[junix]

ray allen should be grinning from ear-to-ear now tsk tsk tsk lumabas ang tunay na kulay ni mr. garnett :lol:

[fatchubs]

Imho if Allen is grinning from ear to ear these days it is not because of kg showing his true colors. I think hindi papatulan ni RA un ginawa ni KG. besides, justice has been served as he got his 2nd ring proving once and for all that he made the right decision.

 

A friend said that fab melo may one day become the elite starting shot blocking big man of the C's. well the C's are in a rebuilding mode now so this is his opportunity to be starter but he'll surely have competition considering Ainge did draft a couple of big man.

As far as being an elite nba center .... Well lets just see

absolutely...the smile is because ray got his second.

 

so will this be rondo's team now?...or do we expect him to be traded, too? fab melo? well he'll just have to prove himself first.

[fatchubs]

First and foremost, kudos to ray allen as he decided to opt in with the heat next year. RA could have earned more by opting out and resigning with the heat or could just sign elsewhere. Just like last year when he ditched the offer of the Celtics to sign with the heat, it is not really about the money. I guess he is very happy with miami.

If rondo is not traded then the C's will be built around him. This is the time when we get to validate how good he is as a pg since imho life was easier for him playing with the big three.

As for FAB being an elite shot blocking center...i recall that my friend said that it may happen because he can learn from KG. well last year we didn't see any semblance that he is one day bound to be an elite shot blocking center despite kg being there. Now that kg is gone, logic dictates that this will probably remain as a wishful thinking on his part.

Well using your lingo ... Being able to maximize earnings and getting assets in return is one thing. But a good fund manager is not only evaluated based on his last trade. In this case Ainge needs to reposition ( which he is doing now) and keep the fund earning. The question is will his reinvestment strategy be profitable as well? The fear is yes the fund manager may have realized all of its gains but moving forward the portfolio will be on the losing end. I just hope history won't repeat itself for the C's wherein it took them years to rebuild after the profitable run in the 80's.

Bottomline, does he really want his portfolio to be volatile (ie. rebuild win a championship then free fall from there) or he wants to ensure steady growth? From the looks of it it seems to me that Ainge took the high risk path ... Thus we probably would expect a correction rather than a consolidation at this point.

nabalitaan ko interesado ang dallas kay rondo kaya lang si dirk ang hinihirit ng boston kaya medyo malabo mangyari.

kung sakaling maging lottery team ang celtics next year, napakadeep daw ng magiging pool ng draftees. expected na magiging #1 si adrew wiggins. .kung sasali sya sa draft.

[johncharles]

the tank is on for 2014

trade Rondo now before he is exposed to the limited player that he really is!

Kung di trade yan baka iwan lng nya Celtics pag tapos ng contract nya

[friendly0603]

Now that the big 3 are gone and it's possible that rondo (big 4) will be traded. What will happen to Celtics fans?
