Mannix notoriously has some wild emotional and bad takes. Gwill is a nice player, but 3 huge contracts absolutely not possible to keep unless they are dumping Brown for something cheaper. I think they would have tried if the offer was maybe sub 10, but at what he was offered, no shot. JB a max is insanely stupid. You saw what he is in game 7. They were a net minus with him on the floor and no Tatum. Please trade him.
The fascination with Felger and Holley just befuddles me. Two complete no talents that should have been gone a long time ago.
Celtics can't win off of just making shots. This is the pros everybody can make shots. This team traded culture, tenacity, grit, heart, soul, will, toughness, comradery and brotherly love that Udoka new we needed to win. We got at least to the chip. but now…we look skinny and frail. Although i like kp. He was not the missing peice. We were a top 5 scoring team already. Even the warriors splash brother's had draymond. At least one big body dog to go after it. We lost both of ours. We needed defense and celtics went completely the other way. I don't think this team makes it past the second round but I'll still cheer
Still don’t want to trade Brown what a dumb move and mistake their about to make.
Completely horrible trade!!! I hate hate hate second rounders!!! Grant Williams is a very good player!!!!🙄
Celtics aren't finished that's for sure
Actually we traded Smart for Porzingis
I think that kid Jordan Walsh has the potential to contribute immediately this year. Kid is a scrapper and can bring that toughness to Boston.
Lol. Smart+Grant for Porzingis? Not a good trade for Boston. The Wizards got Porzingis for Dinwiddie and Bertans a couple of years ago. LMAO.
Brad Stevans has gotten ride of the players that challenged Mazzuliz to play defense first not offense first. He is trying to protect Mazzulia going forward.The stench from the way Udokia was handled is still present.also. There is always a but….if all goes well health wise we win it all. The assistant coaches has to save the day, Mazzuliz is the worst coach in Celtic history. Another the roster is so talented
Our defence got worse basically!!!
Grant Williams is an average player at best. Another nothing move by the Mavs. All they have now is Luka and kyrie. It's not a two man team
Rubio would be good on the celtics
There defense will suffer they have no one to defend big men like Joel Embid and Giannis and Joker
This comment section is jam packed with fans who live in denial. Now unless you're gonna get some superior defender or an all time great shooter then HELL YES YOU GOT FREAKING WORSE. Stop trying to make excuses talking about some random picks that you got. Who cares? You lost Smart and you lost Williams. If defensive consistency was a minor problem last season it will be a major one now. Be honest.
Brad Stevens is too genius to let go his hustle players for nothing. Celtics ain't done yet.
I knew Grant was not going to be here. But getting nothing back is very troubling.
For Porzingis and a BOAT LOAD of inexpensive 2nd Round picks, and an extra 1 to fortify a 2nd Apron dodging, three-star team. as they continue their championship window.
Celtic created space to give Brown the super max.
Getting a player mid season is historically bad. You want to go into training camp with a complete roster. Mid season pickup has a built in excuse. I’m done with that. Combining this and the KP trade is false. Two separate transactions and this was a loss. Mazzulla mismanaged this asset in Grant Williams and it cost his value. Dallas won this trade.
They forgetting they drafted a young defender. And they got a forward from Indiana.
lol reading these comments … boston fans are delusional. y’all got worse. without a doubt.
2 second round picks for grant talk about a slap in the face
That was a dumb trade
I love it because he wanted to get paid like he was a starter when he is seventh option at best on any team. We were going to lose him no matter what.
Grant Williams is going to keep shooting threes and not get better at it.
Celtics is about saving money, not about banners anymore ! im dont with this bs. Watch GSW, they are not saving money, Lakers arent saving money, bucks arent.. so the celtics is doing the right thing FOR SURE
I think Jordan Walsh filling the grant Williams role..and they have high hopes for him…grant couldn't shoot his first year but worked on it. I feel Walsh will do the same
The Celtics are worse. You lost Grant and you lost the heart of this team in Smart for an overrated Porzingis that had one good season. He was overhyped in NY and Dallas and never lived up to his expectations.
So the team that almost beat GSW 2 yrs ago but lost to undermanned MIA is better now by trading away 2 good D players for a paper mache Unicorn? How about trading Mazzulla for a real coach and JB for a player who can be a difference maker in big games.
24 yo Williams for 31 yo Bullock… yikes.
6 firsts, 7 seconds. That includes all of their own first-rounders over that span (2028 is a potential pick swap with SAS) and GSW's first in 2024. Brad's ready for a huge SWING HERE.
He wasn't good anyway. He's short for his position, overweight, and slow as hell! We got rid of dead weight! Good job, Brad!
Celtics got worse simple as that…they got 2 1st round picks for smart good trade for what you got back and 2 2nd round picks for Williams I'm with it but porzingiz is not going to have the same chemistry with team as smart or defense…porzingiz is way overrated and no defense..Brad doesn't want to win now he's looking to the future
They got worse? Have people never seen KP play? I loved Marcus and Grant, but KP is easily better than both of them combined. KP is called the Unicorn for a reason
Mazzulla don't like Grant. You can't miss Grand When Mazzulla really wasn't interested in using Grant….
We'll miss the energy he played with. Good luck Grant!
So no defense and the village idiot as a coach…..yeah……
This was the worse gettin rid of Smart! 😮 and Williams for Poorzinger??? Y’all crazy! Watch this bad deal drain the Celtics!!! They moving fast (getting rid of the heart of the Celtics) to decline in class… the Celtics will not see the finals this year!!! But, if the would have kept Smart, Brown, and Williams we would have won 2024 Finals!!! Watch 🫵🏽
celts wont make it out of 2nd round with these dumb ass moves. clearly yall know nothing about competition.
The Gaspard dude is really annoying
Celtics got worse with these trades, when season has not yet started? How did these folks know that?
Good job brad for all this trade
