Brad Stevens has known Jaylen Brown for a decade now. I’m hard pressed to believe they didn’t have a conversation about a trade. They knew it’d get leaked out.

[Savage @Savageboston]

If you’re the Boston Celtics, there is going to be “fallout” from this and some hard conversations after trying to trade Jaylen Brown.

Per: @ShamsCharania

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

I mean he’s right. This is the type of trade that sets your franchise back a decade if Giannis ends up washed and Hugo is a contributor for 15 years

[Matt Carey @RealMattCarey]

i'll never stop enjoying the Boston media apparatus trying to declare the 28th pick in last year's draft who scored 4 points a game as untouchable in a trade for Giannis

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

First time getting into soccer in my life. Is Messi just LeBron? What am I watching here lmao?

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

There’s revisionist history on this.

KG tried to shoot 3’s for years, he just never shot them well. The distance messed up his whole shot. But he was automatic from 18 feet so he just committed to it.

Everybody’s hearing Giannis for the Celtics but I’m hearing Donovan Mitchell.

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

NBA officiating needs a complete overhaul. The foul baiting and unnatural offense has ruined the game more than even the tanking has.

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

I’ve yet to see the argument against just completely flattening the odds for the bottom 22 teams

Celts just need to bring a big in and let the young guys develop a little bit. They’ll be alright. Tatum getting a full season will be huge

Injury Report Update:

Jayson Tatum - AVAILABLE

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

@PranavSriraman It’s not a rigging thing it’s a flaw in the fundamental system. They need to completely redefine what a foul is. If you flail around in street ball everybody will make fun of you and play on

[Dom Pappagallo @dompappagallo]

Foul baiting is more threatening to basketball than anything else. I have multiple friends that just gave up on the NBA because of it. I’m not even kidding lol

[CLAN the SPURS fan @ClanTheSpursFan]

Wemby was right about unethical basketball

Unfortunately this is the one health thing I don’t really care about. If I can’t have a large iced mocha every morning what is the point of any of this.

Making this a political thing is weird. Merrill went to HS and College in AZ, played for the Dbacks for 6 years, presumably had a house and family there and got offered a deal to go back. Variables

[New York Post @nypost]

Merrill Kelly rejected Padres' lucrative contract offer due to California's ridiculous tax laws https://t.co/Bsceo1aqpR

NBA tanking solution:

- Final 4 teams (ECF/WCF) automatically get picks 27-30

- Every other team gets entered into the draft lottery at equal odds
