Looks like Boston is out of Smoove trade talks.

[ATLscrubLove]

According to Jackie MacMullan Doc Rivers doesn't like Smoove. This from a Celtics fan Twitter page so not sure how much truth there is to this.

[DrReality]

Don't think they were ever serious players

[ATLscrubLove]

Scratch that maybe? Marc Stein just reported Celtics still trying to offer a deal for Smoove don't wanna send Paul Pierce here. Which is good because I don't want him.

[Vol4ever]

The only way he deal could get done us with Pierce or Garnett. I would take Pierce in a heartbeat, what are you guys smoking? Pierce would more than piss off the Boston bunch in a Hawks uni.

Paul Pierce is a garbage shooter, and he's aging. Boston doesn't entice me to the smallest degree..

A garbage shooter? I will give you he has gotten a little long in the tooth, but he has been a Hawk killer over the years, 5 times the player Josh Smith will ever be. Don't get me wrong, I hate the Celtics, but don't thrash on Pierce and his great play.

If this was 5-6 years ago, I would agree with you.

Boston's active on several fronts, including discussions on Josh Smith. Brooklyn is solely focused on making a Smith deal.

Latest deadline rumble: Boston exploring its Josh Smith options. The prob: Can't do it w/out Pierce. Just can't see Ainge sending PP to ATL

KG ain't waiving no-trade clause to go to ATL. So Celts would have to part with iconic PP to get J-Smoove. So can't happen w/out more teams

Hawks have convinced numerous teams that Josh Smith will be moved between now and Thursday 3 PM deadline. Question remains where exactly

[ATLscrubLove]

Dolfan is probably chuckling right now knowing his 3 team deal he predicted with Clips/Celtics might happen. It all depends on KG now I believe.

Good point....it is looking more like - if anything happens - it might have to be a three team deal.

Ha, more like praying I'm right about this trade and feeling uneasy and anxious about it.

Picks?

[thecampster]

Go back to early Feb this time the last 2 years. Every NBA analysts was convinced Josh was headed to LA, Boston or NY. Never was close.

This is all Smith's agent swirling rumors trying to hype the value of his guy.

[Bahamut]

Smoove for Doc Rivers, straight up.

[Admin]

Newest rumors are that Atlanta might be trying to find a 3rd team to take Pierce while we send Josh to Boston.

The Hawks also have discussed sending Pierce onto a third team in some previous conversations around the league.The Nets are trying to make a deal for Smith, too, and have offered Kris Humphries, MarShon Brooks, and either a future first-round pick or the draft rights to Croatian Bojan Bogdanovic, sources said.

Between the suns, nets, bucks and celts. The only players I would want are Avery Bradley and Larry Sanders...other than that just draft picks and expiring deals this summer.

I love the Boston delusion in this article. They think they are dealing PP for Josh Smith and getting Eric Bledsoe and DeAndre Jordan for Garnett. It is a charmed life if they achieve that.

Sucks Mr. Sources is the ESPN's guy but...

If the Hawks can get Rondo for Smith Ferry is a genius.

That says Green for Josh and that Rondo is available to other teams. Green for Josh is awful so no thanks unless we get Melo and Bradley as well.
