    >The LA Clippers are reportedly in the hunt for the defensive stalwart, but they have continued to engage the Celtics in trade talks for Brogdon throughout the offseason, league sources told The Athletic under the condition of anonymity so they could speak freely. After a deal surrounding Brogdon and Kristaps Porziņģis fell just short of the finish line in June, the organization has worked to repair the relationship with the Sixth Man of the Year while continuing to explore trade options in case that bridge is too singed to be repaired.

    >Considering the Clippers are also keen on Holiday, they wouldn’t be looking to help the Celtics complete the deal unless there was another team about to beat them both to the punch. Whether it’s Philadelphia, Miami, Brooklyn, Toronto, Golden State or any of the other teams that may want Holiday, someone else is going to be able to fork over multiple first-round picks. The Clippers need a capable point guard as the James Harden saga has drawn on and are best served getting Brogdon if Holiday is out of play. A three-way deal could help the Celtics get this trade done more easily if the Clippers were willing to contribute to the draft capital going to Portland, but it won’t help in the most tricky aspect of making this all come together.

    I think they should roll with Brogdon, they were really close last year and it wasn’t like he was the weakest link.

    Im not too keen on Clippers roleplayers but I guess you could bring a third team in and send brogdon to LA.
