I doubt the Celtics will be messing with the best starting lineup in the NBA numbers wise.

They need another big who can rebound and defend. Timelord has had difficulty staying healthy and Horford is 35 years old.

Dieng, Ibaka, Biyombo might be the best among remaining available centers.

No to retreads Thompson and Monroe. No to malcontents Boogie, Whiteside, and Dwight.

Accounting for usage, not really. They shoot nearly the same on both 2-pt and 3-pt shots, but Brogdon takes more 2-pt shots.

Been up and down from 3 the last 3 years, hopefully an up season. Also, quite a few players had down years from 3 last year perhaps the ball change had pretty lasting effects from some throughout the season. Of course Brogdon missed so many games his adjustment timeframe was pretty short.

We went from 7 deep to 9 deep already this offseason. I would love another rotational big man of mediocre ability to spell Horford and Rob during the regular season and maybe a developmental defensive player with some size, but that's really about it. Job well done.

Question is what the trades would be.. Dallas, Minnesota could use Smart or White.. Does Dallas have picks? We liked Beasley and McDaniels, what’s a straight White/Beasley swap look like? MIN wants to move DAR somewhere

What about Mo Bamba?

Celtics fan: "Give me a couple of good 8th and 9th rotation guys."

Brad: "How about I give you a starter and a sixth man?"

Dang I'll miss Fitts too. He is a great teammate and cheerleader and seems like an awesome guy.

Bryant rumor. Either OKC big would work into the TPE.
I like Green if we get Bryant, or Favors if we dont.

Anyone complaining or nitpicking about this needs therapy. And Theis? Really? The Celtics won’t miss him. This is an A++++trade.

Man, thought you had come over to the Baynes camp. But seriously, I'd like a bruiser option on the team. Still holding out hope for bruiser + Giles.

EDIT: Also not feeling the Biyombo fit. Still would prefer a perimeter threat so the double big lineup remains an option in perpetuity.

Ok let me the first and only person asking this... any way the Cs can get a FRP for this year's draft? Three years without a FRP seems wrong for many reasons, and they still need a pipeline of young talent to augment the bench for the future.

But damn, what a move by Brad!

At this point in time, I don't think Smart and White will be traded.

I think the Cs don't want to mess with the core guys.

Brogdon’s had better years historically, though. And yeah, new basketball may have messed with everyone..

Imagine gallinari signs somewhere else.. that’s a lot of time lost and players. I’m just pissed they need upgrade their bench…

Aron Baynes on his way to recovery and an NBA comeback. We can always sign him.

He can suck Brogdon’s ****! Slip again in the washroom..

Bro what?

The time to trade for a FRP is during the 2023 draft.

Or maybe if the Cs make a move at the trade deadline in 2023.
