Do y'all think John Wall can still be a 3rd option on championship team?
Options (with fillers from either side)
Celtics for Walker
Mavs for THJ(exp) Johnson(exp) and Kleber
Heat + Boogie for Dragic(team option) Iggy(exp) and Olynk (exp)

Walls contract is prohibitive. 38+ this year then 41,44 and 48 plus or minus the next 3. Boston would never do that unless he was in his prime. He's not.

As a hater of both contracts and skeptic of both players, I have more faith in Kemba adapting and being a guy with a high end jumper than I do with Wall.
As for John Wall, could he have played the role of third best player on say a team like the Lakers last year, maybe. I don’t think he should be considered a member of a big 3 though.

Kemba is a horrible defender who teams attack in the playoffs, Wall won’t be a liability on that end and will give the Celtics pass first PG as well. Walls been improving as a jump shooter and is respectable from there 35% on 5 attempts a game. Maybe not a 3rd “star†but can still be a 3rd option on a team.

Cant pay $40 mil to your 3rd option. Option 1 and 2 usually cost just as much.

No reason at all for Boston to do that.

Luka is on rookie contract still so mavs could afford it.
