Ok. So Brad pulled a rabbit out of his hat.
What's he do next?

Get rid of Jordan Walsh and all the 1st round and 2nd round picks!

Just flip Svi and a pick for Lonnie Walker.
Cs already got a defensive gem in Tillman.
Getting another offensive player in Lonnie Walker would be a good move.

Leaves the Celtics with only 2 PGs.
Cs better off just getting Lonnie Walker.
Caruso is a big upgrade. Probably can find a 3rd PG in another trade for a TPE

That's what's great about this move to get Tillman, Brad doesn't have to do anything anymore.
The Celts already solved an issue when they got Tillman.
Now it's about just adding a boost.
IMO, Lonnie Walker could be that scoring boost off the bench.

Getting Caruso now would cost the Celtics a couple of 1st rounders plus PP, Kornet, Banton, and Svi.
Would the Celtics really go for a 4 for 1 trade right now when everything's going great?

If they can't acquire someone that can contribute in the playoffs this year, they should still look at players who can help them moving forward. AJ Griffin is a 6' 7" wing who had a nice rookie year last year, including against good competition. He has 2 years left on his rookie deal after this year and is supposedly available. For some reason he has fallen out of Atlanta's rotation, perhaps due to the emergence of Jalen Johnson.

This board loves Harry Giles. Every year we act like Giles is good, and since he is friends with Tatum, we should sign. Him. Listen, he can have g out with Tatum and play for Maine.

Doubtful the Bulls make a significant trade. Can see a deal for Bey or Adija.

I like Caruso. But, everyone in the league wants home because he is cheap and plays defense.
