    The Celtics trading JB to one of their most bitter rivals. Just wow.

    I think Brad Stevens is a smart guy and I'm surprised this was the best offer they got.

    I guess I would think that this is Boston negotiating with Milwaukee blowing up in their face. The two first round picks are fine, but Boston still had a pretty good thing going with the relationship between Brown and Tatum.

    I don’t really understand this.

    That's all it took! Wtf! I would have traded KD in a second plus picks for Jaylen. God this makes me sad to a Rockets fan.

    It Did not have to even be Jabari. Tari has more long-term value than Paul George. This is a low-key salary dump. George only has two years left on his deal, one of which is a player option he might opt out of.

    -- 2028 first-round pick that could convert from a first to a swap that is more favorable to Boston
    -- 2031 unprotected Philadelphia first
    -- 2028 second round, most favorable of GSW/OKC/MIL
    -- 2030 second, most favorable of WAS/PORT/PHX
