Parting with EWill's expiring contract would be an absolute necessity if the 
C's wanted to be a serious suitor for ED.  IMO, at some point, Ainge is going 
to have to part with it anyway. It's an asset that HAS to be utilized for more 
than simply lessening the total salary commitment NEXT season.

I think the bigger obstacle in any theoretical trade talk is that GS wants to 
unload Fortson and his bloated contract and thus they'd insist that if 
another team wants Damp they also have to take Fortson.
