Dive into some more trade rumors with the Boston Celtics looking at this possible move making for the Celtics and that is inquiring about Chris bue now Chris bue has been a sought after forward for the Boston Celtics for a couple years now in reports and he was a
Solid uh forward for the Toronto Raptors in their Championship run in 2019 and after that in the bubble gave the Celtics a little bit of a problems being you know a small ballish five you know more of a four kind of weird placement with pass SC yakum being there would
Have excelled a little bit better at a four in my opinion but had to play a little bit of a small ball five coming off the bench had a bit of a more of exceeding role but Chris bue is you know a solid forward you know in getting
Rebounds and being you know just an allround guy for the Toronto Raptors in recent days though we’ve seen that the Toronto Raptors are trying to find a landing spot for Chris bue and this is according to Smith WPS which is a reporter for the Toronto Raptors Chris
Bue the miss the whole new um new ways in Toronto I should say of you know after falling out of Trades of Pascal yakum anog anobi bringing in guys like Emanuel quickley and RJ Barrett the Raptors are definitely seeking a youth movement and with Cru bue being one of
Their kind of you know veteran pieces alongside you know fadus young Dennis Schroeder Gary Trent even Bruce Brown who they just recently acquired those are some of the guys that the Raptors are looking to move off of as they try to get you know younger and younger into
This e Eastern conference and try to get to the bottom of the Eastern Conference ahead of the trade deadline so a guy like Chris bue you know who could be a solid veteran wing and be know a nice playoff piece that could help out some teams is definitely a piece that some
Teams will definitely want and a piece that the Celtics could definitely look after as well if we want to look we can look at this tweet from January 7th which shows that the Celtics were interested in C Buche for a while now is reported from Jake fiser now that was
About a month ago where you know some things can change between the Bost and Celtics organiz ization deciding in who they want to get after and who they sought after but a guy like Chris buet I think could be you know a nice guy to
Bring in as you know a eighth ninth man on a rotation the only problem here dealing with Chris bue is his contract and his stats if we want to look at Chris bu’s stats you guys can see he’s putting up 6.2 points 4.1 total rebounds and point4 assists on 48% shooting 33%
From the three and 75% from the free throw now like I mentioned chis bu is not having that All-Star s season and not ging a lot of minutes just because the Raptors want to prioritize some of their younger players they’ve been playing guys like yako PTO jonte Porter
For example was a you know smaller center I guess you want to call that they were running at the center position they have guys like Bruce Brown they have guys like RJ Barrett Scotty Barnes their main attraction their main piece so a guy like Chris buet has been
Getting some dnps recently for the Toronto Raptors has kind of just been falling out of this rotation and like I mentioned earlier he is worth some value and the one thing that is a problem though is his contract making around1 million it’s going to be tough and
Difficult for a team to kind of trade after for Chris buet even if it is not the Boston Celtics I mean making $1 million this year it is receiving to $10 million the next year and you and then that season after that he is a free
Agent but for trading for a guy in Chris Bu you’re going to have to know you’re going to have to have his contract next season and you’re going to have to you know give up a decent amount of money in around $10 million $1 million to get a
Deal done now with the Boston Celtics that seems to be the difficult point for Chris BU as you know Chris bue coming to the Boston Celtics on a contractual agreement doesn’t seem like it’s going to be the best offer like I mentioned and we mentioned in the past the top
Four guys who make the most money on the Boston Celtics are Untouchable holiday and porzingis recently just acquired in the offseason and obviously the Two Jays will not be moved Derek White is a guy who is undervalued at $17.5 million the Celtics value him so greatly much and
Wanted to work on extension with him last off season I’m sure that this offseason they’ll get one done and Al Horford being the Aging veteran he is he is a guy the Celtics could keep now if you want to look they could you know combine a bunch of guys Luke cornet Shea
Brett fima huk all that but I don’t think that is all going to be able to total up and I don’t think the Raptors are going to want to do a five for one or a six for one deal with Cru bue the only possible move that I think could
Happen with this getting done is a move involving pton Pritchard but pton Pritchard is a little bit difficult to move just because of the poison pill activation in his contract if you guys do not know with Payton pritchard’s deal he’s on he signed an extension last off
SE last in the offseason excuse me to guarantee him around $7 million but he’s still on a $4 million deal with the poison pill activation when he is traded he goes out for $7 million but I do believe the Celtics can only take back around $4 million the amount that they
Give up so they lose about $3 million in the deal that’s why poison pill contracts usually don’t get moved as it is a hassle for both teams to find an agreement on what’s worth the value but also finding out that they both want to do the deal contractually as well so a
Little bit difficult with pton Pritchard on a move there the Raptors obviously would be likely to take a guy like pton Pritchard as he is a young guard maybe package him with a fee or uh Stevens and Banton to get a deal done but like I mentioned earlier it’s going to be
Difficult to be moving you know four for one guys for a guy like Chris bue like I mentioned the Boston Celtics easiest way to get a deal done is using this Trad player exception of Grant Williams that they have in the off season that’s probably the most likely way that a deal
Will get done as I mentioned while Horford’s not moving pton PR’s a little bit difficult to deal and some of those bottom end rotation guys are a lot harder to get up off of especially to another team if you’re going to be moving four or five of them for one set
Player it’s not like it’s the offseason where a couple years ago where the Celtics traded Malcolm broen for Malcolm broen they could give up all those bench pieces because the Pacers could you know wave said guys and then resign some other guys in the off season the BOS the
These teams don’t have that flexibility they’ll lose some money and they don’t want to lose those valuable contracts for just some endel guys to get rid of one said player when they can move said player to another team or possibly work at another deal now if Chris bue were to
Possibly see a buyout option that is something where I could see the Boston Celtics getting interested and intrigued in getting a deal done just because Chris bu is a nice for he is under that non-t tax midlevel exception that we have mentioned he is making around $1
Million where the non- tax mid level is 12.4 million since he is under that limit if he were to get bought out by the Toronto Raptors if they were unable to get a deal done and just wanted to play some younger players Chris buet could get bought out he could come to
This Boston Celtics team and that is a candidate the Celtics could pursue on the buyout Market we’ll have to obviously wait and see after the trade deadline to see who those candidates are and who some of those possibilities are we obviously know that Gordon Hayward if
He’s bought out or even Kyle Lowry if they’re bought out Celtics cannot pursue and go after those guys as they make over $12 million but since the Boston Celtics Chris bue makes under that money the Celtics could go after and bring him in same thing with Kelly Ock but let me
Know your guys’ thoughts and opinions on a possible Chris Buche deal I don’t think it’s likely to get done I don’t think the Celtics will go after and trade for Chris bue but if he does get bought up by the Raptors I do think it’s a plausible option for the Boston
Celtics to pursue him as I think he could be a solid piece for the Celtics as an eighth or ninth man at that Wing position but let me know in the comment section what you guys think of this Cris Buche deal and I’ll catch you guys in
The next video thank you guys so much peace out

Boucher would be a great addition still think the potential hasn’t been maxed out with him
3rd 😛😝😜😜😛😝😛😝😛😝😛😝😜😜😛😛😝😝😜😜😛😝😛😝😛😝😛😝😛
boucher is another olynyk, osman, gallinari, etc. he's only coming here on a buyout. hes a bad trade target. boucher is a bad defender, meh shooter, not a ball mover but he's tall/big wing and a good rebounder.
Boucher is 31. Queta is younger , more athletic, and an actual Big
Boucher is not even realistic. This is a waste of a video. They’d have to trade Horford or like five deep bench players.
Bro you have to learn trade. You can not trade 5 for 1 or 4 for 1. To do a trade you HAVE to HAVE roster spots to take in the player EVEN if you are planning to wave them!
