The Boston Celtics are quietly trying to acquire some really key pieces for another three or four year run. According to RealGM via Zach Lowe of Grantland, the C’s are interested in the Nuggets Ty Lawson.

The C’s have a thousand draft picks,
two big trade exceptions, and a bushel of interesting young guys. It’s unclear how interested they really are, and dealing for Lawson now would bring the risk of a semi-unwanted playoff appearance. Boston will not include Marcus Smart in any Lawson deal.
