I've tried it out and it works if you add Mercer to AH, AC, JT and then you
have to add Delk, Brown and Bremer to Walker. Don't forget the 2 draft
picks. You're getting a young underrated forward, and your point guard of
the future....and Croshere knows his role and doesn't think he's something
he's not - unlike you know who. Without the draft picks all you're giving
them is a young stiff of a draft mistake, a backup point guard on his best
days, Son of Satan and Tony Delk. With the draft picks they can possibly get
a legitimate point guard, Delk comes off the bench, Bremer comes off the
bench, Brown is the 12th man on the bench and Antoine becomes their problem.
Sounds like a steal for the Celtics.

> Even with Walker off the table

What? Walker off the table? Now come on Way...settle down. You know that
whole "not trading Walker," crap is just that....a huge pile of crap. Danny
has already said that he doesn't think the team can win with Antoine and PP.
Why would the guy take the job if he plans on keeping Antoine? Why would he
extend O'Brien's contract if he planned on keeping Antoine. Keeping Antoine
is a mistake. Keeping both is suicide. You know those guys are joined at the
hip. This is easy Way. What would you do if were in Ainge's shoes? If he's
smart, that's exactly what he's going to do.
