Celtics Association: Championship or bust....would you make one of these trades?

[mrj513]

The Celtics are currently the 3rd best team in the East behind the Heat and Magic and they are slightly ahead or tied with the Bulls and this does not even take into consideration the Lakers as an obstacle to a Championship this season.

Below are trade scenarios that I am contemplating in order to make the C's more of an offensive threat and more versatile on the perimeter when a playoff run in mind.

Would you make any of these trades based on them making sense for both teams?

Trade Scenario 1: Trade with Bulls
Rajon Rondo (87 rating), Nate Robinson (76) & Glenn Davis(64) to Chicago
Derrick Rose (85 rating) and Luol Deng (77 rating) to Boston

Trade Scenario 2: Trade with Magic
Ray Allen (79 rating), Nate Robinson (76) & Glenn Davis (64) to Orlando
Vince Carter(81 rating),Mickael Pietrus(72) & Jason Williams(70) to Boston

Trade Scenario 3: Trade with TrailBlazers
Nate Robinson (76 rating) and Kendrick Perkins (72) to Portland
Greg Oden (75 rating), Rudy Fernandez(68) & Jerryd Bayless(66) to Boston

None of those make sense for both teams

With the C's lineup in mind, would there be an edit to one of the trades that would work for either of the 3 teams in your opinion?

I figured that Ray Allen would be a perfect fit in the Magic style of offense and they have been stead fast trying to trade Vince since last season. The Celtics could use more consisitent scoring from the 2 and some athleticism on defense.

The C's could also use a better threat offensively at the point while the Bulls would do the deal because of getting both Nate and Davis....

If I'm controlling the Celtics,

1. Yes
2. No
3. Yes

Why would you trade with the Magic or the Bulls knowing that you will likely see them come playoff time.
Also why trade for the injury prone oden when you already have Shaq and J.O.?

Bulls would never trade Rose.

Out of the three, I could only see the 3rd one happening, if Portland is really that cautious of Oden's health(but obviously in the game, he won't be injured). So I don't see them trading Oden.

They are all pretty unfair one way or the other. Acquiring Derrick rose is pretty unrealistic, they'd never trade him. I personally wouldn't have done any of those trades.
