We need a posey/sam cassell type move to beef up the bench now that Simons is gone UNLESS Payton to the bench is a permanent move
After trading Anfernee Simons for Nikola Vučević, Boston solidified the starting center spot but also lost a real source of bench scoring, which changes the team’s needs. Once the Vučević deal is finalized, the Celtics will have a large trade exception that could easily absorb Coby White’s $12.9M salary, and from a basketball standpoint he makes sense if he’s viewed as a sixth-man scorer rather than a starter. With Chicago now holding Simons, Giddey, Ayo Dosunmu, and Mike Conley, they could justify moving Coby to balance their guard rotation, while Boston would be filling the exact hole Simons left by adding instant offense off the bench. The idea works mechanically and on the court the only real question is whether Boston is willing to spend meaningful assets for bench scoring after already committing to Vučević.
Can we get rid of that Bum Tillman too
A
A-B
easily giving the trade an A
we address a serious need
we create a HUGE TPE that will play a big role when we're fully healthy
and also, now having access to the FULL mid-level min & the buyout market?
we should applaud flexibility while still competing and not being 100%
I grade the Celtics/Bulls trade at a B
It is actually a smart trade but I hate losing simons, he is a great dude and really good. I would love to sign him as a FA after the season ends
I say we get back Horford somehow
Brad is doing the job and just needs more time. I would like to see Coby White added to the team.
coby white may be the best fit
We need a back up pg now
