Boston would still have Derrick White, Brogdon and Payton Pritchard (who has said he wants playing time).

This is why Celtic fans get a bad rap...dude gave his blood , sweat , n tears to u guys for like a decade..show some respect


And he was paid very well for his services. Also whether you like it or not the rest of the stuff I said is absolutely true.

Tyus jones is so underrated. Great job by the wizards

His assist to turnover ratio will actually help the team get the Ws. Not a fit for a Tank Commander, so they should flip him for picks ASAP.

Trade Brown and 3 firsts for SGA


I don’t know if I do that deal if I’m OKC. They have enough picks as is and potential end of first round picks are not very valuable IMO. Plus SGA is a better player, younger, and under contract for less money for 4 more years. Jaylen will be looking to get paid even more than SGA’s current deal.

Celtics would have been better off finding a great return for Brown then trading Smart.

Respect the player but this needed to happen. Tatum and Brown used Marcus as a crutch when the game was on the line. They need to grow up as a unit and this core was never winning a title. Hes a guy that was very maddening to watch at times.

Derrick White’s playoff performance earned him regular starter minutes methinks.

Bruh, I'll miss Smart don't get me wrong, and I don't wholly agree with Ghost, but miss me with this bull **** on Celtics fans getting a "bad rap" over this. :roll:

I'm going to guess that not both 1st rounders will be going to Boston. Wizards probably get 1 of them + whatever else Boston has to send out.

Boston would still have Derrick White, Brogdon and Payton Pritchard (who has said he wants playing time).


Pritchard can’t play in the POs and white isn’t a play maker. Brogdon apparently has a career ender.

Gillespie will give them the shooting and play making

Brooks is dumb, Smart is not. Sure he might jack up bad shots here and there but not as dumb as Brooks.

Late first round picks don’t have much value.

Worse than all of those. Yes. Smart is a warrior. They will never win without him


You understand that since Smart has entered the league he has been on zero title teams. Obviously teams can win without him.

I want to see the protections on that 2024 pick. Memphis can't be dumb enough to not protect that thing with Ja Morant being out a quarter of the year.


2024 pick is reportedly Warrior’s FRP.
