The plan given by the American media is said to be that the Celtics exchanged Jason Tatum, marcus smart and Daniel Tess, plus the first-round draft pick of Memphis Grizzlies in 2020 and two first-round draft picks of Boston Celtics in 2020 and 2022 for Downs of the Timberwolves.
With Angie's character, it is possible to do such a big thing. Garnett was also the n of 1. Then the question is, does Downes have such transaction value?
There are two problems in this, one is the technical characteristics of Downs and the adaptability of the existing lineup of the Green Army, and the other is what height Downs itself can reach.
Downs, a player with obvious advantages, good offensive skills and accurate projection, may be the best long-range center in history, or may be a rare fifth position in space. His three-point shooting and shooting percentage are the first in the team, and the whole league is also the level of top perimeter. He scored 26.5 points with a real hit rate of 65% per game, which was terrible.
The shortcomings are also obvious. The center is usually the position that has the greatest influence on defense in a team, and Downs' defense is symbolic, if not catastrophic. His offensive efficiency is 1 13.7, ranking 19 in the league, but his defensive efficiency is 1 14.5, ranking 298- only 3 1 1 players in the league. In other words, the defensive end has to pay another 0.8 points for the points he cut off at the offensive end.
What did the Celtics lack after Downs?
The Celtics lack a center. But they lack a center, a big inside man who can fill the restricted area and a defensive anchor. And the defense of elder Tang ... in your dreams. Let's talk about the next question.
As for the offense, Downs has a good offensive end, but the Celtics now have Walker, Brown, Tatum and Hayward, and there seems to be no shortage of people on the offensive end. On the contrary, I'm afraid it takes some brains to distribute the ball.
Besides, Downs is good, but he joined the League two years earlier than Tatum. Looking at it two years later, his future ceiling may not be stronger than Tatum's, let alone the other five chips.
So I personally feel that it is not realistic.

Don't say 6 for 1, even Tatum and Downes 1 for 1, and the Celtics may not agree.
Recently, due to poor record, the Timberwolves have frequently fallen into trading news. The American media fadeaway world put forward a bold trading idea. They think that the Timberwolves can trade Carl Anthony Downs to the Celtics in exchange for the first-round draft picks of Jayson Tatum, Marcus Smart, Daniel Tess and Grizzlies in 2020 (owned by the Celtics) and the first-round draft picks of the Celtics in 2020 and 2022. They think the Celtics are attractive enough to Downs, and the Celtics' trading chips are attractive enough to the Timberwolves.
Downs is the No.1 in 20 15 and an excellent young center in NBA at present. This season, he averaged 26.5 points and 1 1.7 rebounds. Among them, his average points and rebounds are currently ranked ninth in the league. Downs is also regarded as the cornerstone player of the Timberwolves. Last summer, the Timberwolves renewed their contract, with a five-year maximum salary of 65.438+0.9 billion. The contract came into effect this season, with a value of $27.25 million in the first year.
Downs has no talent and luxurious data, but he also has his own problems. First, not tough enough. Downs gives the impression that he is elegant and lacks leadership. There are two famous terriers about his toughness. One is that he can't carry all kinds of players in the same position, such as Embiid, cappella and so on. Second, Butler was ridiculed by various groups when he left the team, but he was unable to fight back. It can be said that although Downs has a high starting point, neither experts nor fans have high expectations for his upper limit. At least, Downs doesn't look like a cornerstone player who can lead the team to establish a dynasty.
Tatum's words are familiar to many fans, especially in the 20 17-20 18 season. Rookie Tatum shocked the world in the playoffs and showed his maturity and broad mind. This season has also directly established Tatum's cornerstone position in the Green Army. This season, after Owen left the team, Tatum became the key training object of the Green Army. This season, Tatum in the third grade has been able to hand over the data of 2 1.3 points and 7 rebounds, and won one of them, which is a full increase of 5.6 points compared with last season. Ascension is visible to the naked eye. Not only that, the Celtics who used young double flowers to match Kemba Walker still ranked second in the East, which surprised many people and made them sit up and take notice.
In this case, using Tatum as Downs' core chip and three first-round draft picks are obviously too thick. In contrast, we can see that the Lakers traded Davis with two first-round draft picks and two first-round draft picks. The deal is also considered to overdraw the Lakers' future. But the arrival of Davis directly helped the Lakers become the first in the West from a team that didn't make the playoffs. Excuse me, does Downes have this advantage?
Deal? Against who? The current Celtics lineup is very good, including Cow X's point guard Ken Bawalker, veteran Hayward, rookie Tatum and Jay Brown. Although the Celtics' locker room problem was very serious last year, it hasn't happened since Owen left. Of course, this problem can't be entirely blamed on Owen, just like going to Hornets defender Rosier. Maybe the contradiction lies with them. I don't think the Celtics can win the championship now, but they are in the East.
According to Fadeaway World, a well-known news media in NBA, the Celtics are one of the most brilliant teams since the foundation of NBA. Although they are now ranked second in the East with a record of 23 wins and 8 losses, they have no advantage against the 76ers and Bucks with super insiders like joel embiid and Giannis Antetokounmpo. If the Celtics want to continue their glory, Downs is their ideal inside supplement.
It's just that the Green Shirt Army can come up with matching chips to make this deal with the Timberwolves. The American media gave a 6-pair 1 trading plan, and the Celtics exchanged Jason Tatum, marcus smart and Daniel Tess, plus the Memphis Grizzlies' first-round draft pick in 2020 and the Boston Celtics' two first-round draft picks in 2020 and 2022 for Downs of the Timberwolves.
As can be seen from this trading plan, the trading chips given by both parties are sincere enough. As the main core player of the Green Shirts, Tatum can average 2 1.3 points, 7 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game this season. Tatum's rookie contract expires in the 2020-2026,5438+0 season, and his salary this season is only 7.83 million US dollars, and next season is 9.9 million US dollars. I believe I can make a lot of salary space for the Timberwolves, and with Tatum's personal strength, I can attract some powerful players to join the Minnesota Timberwolves. As an excellent 3D player, Smart can contribute 1 1.3 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4.5 assists per game this season. He is a rare expert! 2019 July 18, Celtic renewed the contract for two years with100000 USD. Daniel Tess averaged 7 points, 6 rebounds 1.5 blocks this season, and he is a player with a relatively high personality price!
Of these three draft picks, Grizzly's first draft pick in 2020 may become 10. According to the current record of the grizzlies, it is even possible to win the top spot, and the two first-round draft picks of the Green Shirt Army may be sent out as the top spot in the transaction.
If this deal is passed, Garnett's drama of being sent to the Green Shirt Army will repeat itself in history, and the Celtics will form a four-giant structure of Downs, kemba walker, Jay Brown, Hayward and the impact champion. This lineup is enough to make people look forward to.
For Downs, he averaged 26.5 points and 1 1.7 rebounds per game this season, with an overall shooting percentage of 5 1.4% and a three-point shooting percentage of 4 1.8%. Joining a strong team and winning the championship is his goal.
After the Celtics get Downs, they will become another strong team competing for the championship, and they will all become teams competing for the championship level in the next few years. Timberwolves will benefit greatly from this transaction. They will not only get the core of future team building, but also get young players and draft picks, which will speed up their reconstruction process. A deal between the Timberwolves and the Celtics is possible.
Look at the situation of the two teams, how similar it is to the background of the transaction that happened that year. Although the Timberwolves have talented Downs and Wiggins, they are not even as good as Garnett. They haven't even played in the second round of the playoffs. Celtic has experienced some twists and turns and is now in the stage of semi-reconstruction. The team needs to wait for the growth of young players. After losing Owen and Horford at the same time this season, the only remaining Hayward seems to have the meaning of Pierce fighting the Green Shirts alone. So it seems like a good deal for the Green Shirts to return to the peak and follow Garnett's example.
However, it is worth mentioning that Downs did not show Garnett's talent. Garnett is a very good athlete. When his position in the NBA is very clear, he has been able to go from 1 to 5 years old. Does Downes have this ability now? In addition, Garnett has both offensive and defensive skills in the team. Although Downs performed well on the offensive end, he was almost in the bottom of the league on the defensive end. Such a decline is not worth changing for six.
Downs is not for sale to the timberwolves. There is a simple reason. Butler is a leader and a strong player. However, for the Timberwolves, his value is not comparable to that of Downs. And look at the current lineup of the green shirts. Trading Downs is likely to provide chips like Rex Rabbit and Jay, which may do more harm to the Green Shirts than bloodshed. Therefore, we really don't see that both sides are interested in doing such a business that can lose both sides.
Judging from the Celtics' current record and the atmosphere in the team, it is unfavorable to win Downs by six to one. The Green Army does lack a super center, but Downes may not be able to adapt to the Green Army when he comes. In addition, Tatum has the image of a superstar, accurate shooting and excellent sports talent. He is a very reliable player and plays like Leonard. This player will definitely be the future of a certain team. Another smart one is a defense expert. This man and Beverly of the Clippers are two defensive lunatics unique to the league. Such people are the treasures of the team and adapt to the style of the Green Army, so they can't leave. Moreover, it is not cost-effective to exchange half a team for a super giant, and there are also examples of learning from the past. The Mavericks once traded half a team for Rondo and finally lost. The Rockets traded half a team for Paul. As a result, the two of them, Lu Wei and harel, who were traded, have now surpassed Paul. The Rockets may regret seeing these two men playing now. So a harmonious team is not conducive to dispersion. It is best to replace a super center, even a big center, with half a team in next year's draft. As long as they are tall and athletic, they can be cultivated. Gasol Jr. entered the nba and was selected by the Lakers in the 48th overall pick in the second round, and then traded to the Grizzlies. But it is not one of the best centers in the league yet. This year, the Green Army has a super center. It's just that the coaching staff is not good at digging and cultivating new people. It's a pity that there are ready-made centers who don't train well, but it's unwise to let them exchange their blood for centers of other teams.
Celtic is the traditional strongman of the League. They have won the most championships in the league, but most of the glory was left before 2 1 century. After entering the 2 1 century, although the style of the Green Army is still bloody, it has only got its hands on one champion. A few years ago, it was close to the finals, but it had to be changed because of some infighting in the team. Fortunately, the idea of building a team of the Green Army is correct. After several off-season transactions, I got back on track, and now I am 23 wins and 8 losses, ranking second in the East.
However, the current strength of the Green Army is still not optimistic about winning the championship, and the number of star players in the team is still not enough. To this end, the American media fadeawayworld also exposed the possibility of an earthquake-level transaction. They suggested replacing Green Army 6 with 1 in exchange for a super center, a group of Big Four, and hitting the championship.
The specific trading plan is: Tatum+Smart+Tess +3 in the first round to get Downs of the Timberwolves. This deal is very similar to the big deal before the Green Army won the championship in 2008. At that time, the Celtics traded Garnett to the Timberwolves with half the team's resources, and then formed the Big Three with Pierce and ray allen, and won the championship in the first season of cooperation.
Why does fadeawayworld think the Timberwolves are willing to trade their star Downes? The main reason is that Downs is unhappy in the Timberwolves. After all, no one wants to stay in a team that has never won. The Timberwolves had a good momentum at the beginning of this season, but they went to the top pick under the guise of playing ball, which is unacceptable to any all-star player.
For Celtic, Tatum is indeed a good cornerstone of team building, but now the team has a contract of 300 million yuan (Hayward, Walker, Brown). According to Tatum's performance, his asking price must be the top salary, and then the salary space of the team will be locked. Moreover, compared with Downs, Tatum does have a gap in all aspects. Downs is only 24 years old, so even if he sends three main players and three first-round signings, it is still a very worthwhile deal.
After getting Downs, the starting lineup of the Green Army will become: Walker+Brown+Hayward+Downs+Kanter. On paper, it seems that it really has the strength to compete for the championship.
For the Timberwolves, Downs has also proved that he is a super-strong star, but he has no ability to lead the team to victory. He is more suitable to stay in a team with excellent team strength, and the Timberwolves can't give Downs such an environment. But Tatum is different. The rookie season has helped the team reach the Eastern Conference finals, and the inner desire for victory is very sufficient. Therefore, with Tatum, the timberwolves may get out of trouble faster.
I can't change it. It feels wrong to change Horford and Baines. The Celtics don't lack scorers, they lack rebounders.
This kind of thing should be seen as news before it is confirmed, so don't take it seriously!
China should not watch at this time.
