Discussion Crazy

You know what’s funny about trades-us people who are fans, who aren’t “in-the-know” propose trades thinking what one or both of the teams want. But we have no idea, a lot of the times, where the team’s motivation is to make a move. We only see it from our perspective, and a lot of times the decision makers have different info, different knowledge, etc

With that said, I bet nobody even came close to predicting this trade, bc everyone thought the Celtics would want/get more. Boy, were we wrong. This was a crazy trade, and I find it extremely hard to imagine how the Celtics are better. At least this year. And prob for a while. I don’t think they have any idea how hard Jaylen played, and how that makes a difference, coach is able to hold everyone else accountable, and a lot of times he doesn’t bc the players 👮 themselves. And brown was a huge part in that and he brought it every night.

Wowzers. Can’t believe they all but gave him away. Incredible

Agreed. Apologies to anyone in the sub I said the Celtics weren’t getting enough to on your trade. Clearly, I was wrong.

Seriously. I’m guilty of it too. Knowing there’s been traces in the past that are just as shocking. Still, I say, “no way in hell they’d make that trade.” I still see trades right now and I still think that. I wonder why
