It's a fever dream for fans of the Boston Celtics. Rumors linking Boston to a pair of star players, Jimmy Butler of the Chicago Bulls and Paul George of the Indiana Pacers, are circulating in advance of Thursday's NBA trade deadline.
While odds are both players will end up staying put for now, let's suspend disbelief and imagine that both teams would trade their star wing for identical packages along the lines of the one I outlined the Celtics offering for Butler in Tuesday's analysis of his value.
If it were truly Boston's choice, should they pick Butler or George?
