I accept this trade. Bradley Beal is becoming an All-Star in Washington. With this trade, I found a Robin to Russell Westbrook's Batman. I did have to give up a lot to get him, though. I hate sending Myles and Aaron on their way so soon, but I think it will turn out alright for me. This trade also allows me to open up some more room in free agency. I have two targets picked out and hope to bring them to Boston this offseason. Monta and Rudy have been two solid veterans on my team, so I hate to lose them as well. Evan Turner can be a quality starter for my team at the SF position. Zeller is still young and developing as with Hardaway Jr and Hill. Having Russell Westbrook on my team I need to push the envelope and try to build the best team I can now and not wait on the young guys to grow and develop.

I accept this trade. I like the depth I get with this trade, as well as the youth in Turner and Gordon. Beal was my franchise player, but this trade really opens the door for numerous different routes for my team. It completely changes my tanking direction and I feel as though I can make a solid push in playoffs if I choose to do so. With another trade or so I can open some cap up to sign a solid FA and then be on my way to a successful season.

Hell of a trade... By my standards, I think Boston might be giving up a little bit too much here, but it all kind of depends on how much Beal can improve and if he ever reaches a "franchise player" kind of level. I'll let some others vote first because I haven't quite made up my mind yet.

[Reggie Miller]

very risky move by the Boston.. They really want Beal to be their franchise player. I think they are giving away too much.. but I think it's worht a shot.. Beal is one of my fav players next to PG13 so I know why the Celtics will do this.. Westbrook Beal combo looks nice.. I accept

THINKING

[billy]

i would accept this from an objective TC type view point, but personally i think this is a HUGE mistake for boston.

an injury prone player like beal isnt worth that much.

[Red Auerbach]

So we have 2 accepts, 1 thinking, and 0 reject.

I hopefully have been around and have been able to prove myself worthy to trust.
I am not going to run my team into the ground. I am not going to run away if this doesnt work.

[Steve Jobs]

I'll accept. I don't like how much you're giving up in terms of contracts and depth (almost everyone you're moving has Bird Rights), but you're clearly more interested in the high potential of Beal (and admittedly he's started this season off VERY hot, so it's not a stretch to say he might be worth it). I still worry you're moving too much, but the line between too much and not enough is pretty thin in the context of moving a star, so I'm okay with you rolling the dice here. Westbrook/Beal backcourt needs to deliver.

[Red Auerbach]

Wait, are we not playing NBA Jam where you just play with two guys?

Oh shoot. I had a dream we were and that's where this trade came from.

[Justin Timberlake]

Has it passed then?

[Red Auerbach]

Jobs, Miller, and King make 3.

[billy]

I don't have a vote

[Red Auerbach]

Oh. I missed that one then.
We are still in the deliberation process, then.

[billy]

though it passed due to the 24 hour rule 2-1.]

Congrats.

[Brian Scalabrine]

Shit. I should have voted on this... Sorry, I thought I did.
