Bos/Dal defense wins championships 

Post#1 » by neno » Sun Feb 2, 2025 5:52 pm

Jaden Springer
4
Dwight Powell and 25 1st
Dallas picks up elite defender to help with elite guards in the west SGA, Luka etc
Boston deals from depth picks up asset
Probably best deal both teams make today

Springer worth a mid 1st is even more unlikely than what Dallas just did. Come on.

We already have good defensive guards (Grimes/Christie)...we need offense to compensate for the loss of last year's leading scorer

The Celtics probably end up paying someone to take Springer in a salary dump at the deadline and you have the Mavs surrendering a 1st to get him. Seems legit.

Yeah Springer, despite his recent chance and good play won’t net a first.
In this trade even netting a second is debatable?
