I guess Hauser does probably have the most value out of Holiday and Porzingis. Good call, Bullpett...

WHOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

And we got two seconds!

Simons nice offensive guard, needs to step up the defense
He's entering his last yr and is gonna need an extension
But his agent is Bill Duffy who goes back to the Rondo days with Mike Zarren and the C''s
Expect a quick extension

LETSGO

We're gonna need to teach Simons to play some D but he was a 19ppg guy last year

WOW

Thank you for everything Jrue.

Always rated Simon's and those 2 second picks are valuable.

When we will learn to never doubt Brad ??

How did Brad pull this off?

Simons is one hell of a player!

And they say Jrue has negative value.

What did we give to get jrue? It really don’t matter because we won the chip, it was well worth it, just want to see what we regained.

Its too bad we couldn't have brought Rob home as well.

Jrue was awesome as a Celtic. Yall have enough guards with Scoot and Shaedon that Jrue can take a little bit less of role. Jrue still a dang good player, was a legend in the 2024 playoffs. Only two years, but a Bill Walton type of two years for the Celtics.

good luck

The 14th pick in ‘24 (we got for Marcus)
A 2029 1st
Rob Will
Brogdon

For what’s now basically Simons, 2 seconds and that championship. Paid off decently.

Can't believe Brad pulled this off. Brad couldn't call this in fast enough, lol.

I agree with this writer's take [spoiler: he thinks it's stupid on the Blazers' part.]

Shams tweet about multiple key Celtic players being in talks is interesting.
