Silly question: Would you trade Trae for the 1st pick?

Stick with Trae. The guy is going to be our leader for seasons to come. Plus, trading a star rookie after one season does not send a good message to the rest of the players of the league.

You don't trade away (potentially) championship caliber #1 options. I love Zion as a prospect, but I'm not sure he's a championship caliber #1 option offensively. I could see it, but I think Trae has shown more on that side of the ball. Say what you will about Trae's defense, but you NEED someone who can put the ball in the basket to win a ship.

Trae's season, despite getting some recognition, is still very underappreciated. We just saw a 20 year rookie PG turn in an historic rookie season and play all 82 games in the process (ok they sat him for one). 19/8, played and started 81 games/30 minutes a game. I mean gm-chrysler.

You lost the Kyrie Celts bet buddy. Come and take ur crow...ho... sorry the second part is cuz I know you whine a bit.

You would think you'd try to never bring that up again.

peep this though.

Of course nothing can be final until Irving makes his free agency decision, but the trade doesn’t look great for either team at this point. Boston’s experiment has been an utter failure, but it’s difficult to imagine them doing any better with Thomas, Crowder, and the Brooklyn pick still on the team. The Cavs have just half of the trade package remaining, but at the very least Sexton played extremely well after the All-Star break.

Even if the Celtics are able to keep Irving long-term, can they even say the won the trade? Will things be different in the future, or are they doomed to the same toxic, selfish, and disappointing performance and atmosphere that followed the team this season? Only time will tell, and as Kryie Irving would agree, time is a flat circle.

For Zion yes. If it was most other drafts then the answer is no.
