“The Clippers nearly satisfied their long-held wishes for better point guard play by landing [Malcolm Brogdon](https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/5667) in a three-team trade with Boston and Washington before the NBA Draft, but a poor medical evaluation for Brogdon nixed the deal. Los Angeles even re-engaged Boston about acquiring Brogdon in recent days, sources said. The Clippers were also prepared to offer Powell in a package for [Chris Paul](https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/3930), league sources told Yahoo Sports, before [Golden State](https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/golden-state/) ultimately acquired the veteran floor general in exchange for [Jordan](https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/6216) Poole.”
“Celtics forward Grant Williams will likely have to wait out this initial rush of mid-level signings to find an interested bidder. Dallas has been linked to various wings and forwards, from Williams to Jae Crowder to Eric Gordon to Beasley.”
“Amid interest to return to Chicago and other contenders, Patrick Beverley has another potential suitor in Boston, sources said.”

Seems even the Clips aren’t too concerned with Brogdon’s health.

Oh jeez, I thought the full MLE was the minimum he would get, but this almost sounds like he could miss out on that too. We’ll see, i still think he gets the full MLE from someone.
I wouldn’t mind Pat Bev as the bench PG
If we end up shipping Brogdon to LA anyways…. I’ll be so fucking pissed idk I’m still hurt lol
Man fuck the clippers. That garbage truck of a franchise shouldn’t have any GM consider making trades with them. “Re-engaged trade talks” my ass. Rot in piss
How about a three way trade where LA sends out some draft capital to Wiz, LA get Brogdon and we get Tyrus Jones. Save some cap room and be able to keep Grant?
“Re-engage” Fuck off
don’t deal with those wishy washy ringless bums
Let’s go Pat Bev!!! Get some real fire on this humble ass team
Marcus smart truthers need to get their panties out of a bunch already
Fischer is generally reliable when it comes to the Celtics. Called the Ime hire, and the Schroder and Gallo signings before anyone else
Clippers probably got wind of an opportunity to trade for harden and dropped brogdan so hard his arm fell off according to windhorst
I’d like Pat Bev as the instigator tough guy. This teams needs a dog.
Smart was getting traded either way people. Let it go
This won’t be popular, but when healthy, I think Brogdon is a superior floor general to Smart.
Bring me my dawg Pat Bev
Lol at the people here who thought Grant was getting $20 mil. He’ll get the NTMLE at best and the Celts will just match it. Nobody is tying up cap space or missing out on other UFAs just for the Celtics to match any reasonable offer for him.
Pat Bev would be so comedy
This won’t be popular, but when healthy, I think Brogdon is a superior floor general to Smart.
Fuck P Bev now and forever and twice on Sundays
I’d love Pat Bev. Not for his play, but just for him to bring some toughness to this team
Grant Williams is going to play for the Dallas Mavericks.
