Celtics, Allen on trade clock
Few grand conclusions can be drawn from February NBA games. But in this case,
the Celtics' latest disappointing loss only underscored what has been a poorly
kept secret among NBA executives for weeks: Ray Allen's time in Boston is
likely coming to an end.
Thanks to a non-competitive third quarter, the Celtics fell to Orlando 96-89 on
Sunday, dropping them to third in the East behind the Cavs and Magic. The
struggling Celtics still have three games against Cleveland to prove they
haven't fallen from elite status. But after going 1-3 against Orlando and 0-4
against Atlanta, the Celtics have reached a crossroads in their bid to milk one
more championship banner out of the Allen-Paul Pierce-Kevin Garnett era.
Don't bet on every member of the Big Three being around beyond the Feb. 18
trade deadline.
Though team president Danny Ainge has publicly ridiculed the Allen trade
reports, several NBA executives told CBSSports.com that the Celtics have been
actively trying to parlay Allen's $19.7 million expiring contract into an asset
that could keep them in the mix during the upcoming playoffs and also help them
for the next several seasons. The most recent inquiry, sources say, involved
Sacramento sharpshooter Kevin Martin, who'd be a good fit with Boston's
remaining core. Kings officials might be talked out of their reluctance to deal
Martin if they could pry a prolific big man out of a third team brought into
the discussions or in a separate transaction before the deadline.
The bottom line is that Ainge, who saved his job by pulling off the perfect
storm of trades that yielded Allen and Garnett three years ago, has made it
clear in private conversations that he's "not going back to the abyss,"
according to one person familiar with the discussions.
"Danny has said, 'I can't go back to square one where we were prior to the
Garnett deal,'" the person said. "At the All-Star break, they’re going to look
in the mirror and say, 'Cleveland got better, we can't beat Orlando, and we
can't even beat the Hawks. We’re not going to win it this year.'"
If the Celtics kept Allen and let his contract come off the books, they'd still
be over the cap this summer with no avenues besides sign-and-trades to acquire
a starting shooting guard. That's why Boston also has expressed interest in the
Bulls' Kirk Hinrich, an excellent defender and ball-handler who would give the
Celtics a starting two guard next season at $9 million and in 2011-12 at $8
million. The Bulls' motivation would be cap relief.
The Kings, who are not planning to be big free-agent shoppers this summer,
aren't seeking to acquire cap space alone. They want assets -- and the Celtics
don't have a young big man to offer. The Bulls, who almost certainly will move
Tyrus Thomas, might need to be invited into that conversation to satisfy
everyone's needs.
Whatever avenue they pursue, the Celtics don't want to go into this summer with
no cap flexibility and no assets that could be used to keep them among the
elite. Before Ainge struck the 2007 draft-related deal for Allen and then
plucked Garnett from Minnesota with the help of former teammate Kevin McHale,
the Celtics had just endured a 24-win season and hadn't been out of the first
round since 2002-03. Ainge and Doc Rivers were on the brink of getting fired
until the perfect remedy presented itself -- and the Celtics parlayed the Allen
and Garnett deals into their 17th NBA title.
"Kevin McHale's out of the league," one rival executive said, only half-joking.
"So they're not going to be able to recreate that deal again."
The period leading up to that was so grim that nobody in the organization wants
to revisit it. The best way to avoid such a scenario would be to part ways with
Allen. It wouldn't be starting over. Instead, it would be a bold attempt to
have a chance against Cleveland, Orlando, and Atlanta in the playoffs and avoid
going back to the depths of rebuilding.
Would you trade Ray Allen for Kevin Martin?
