@Savageboston If they believe in Tatum’s ability to carry a team and contend, then they view it as a retool or a soft rebuild. If they don’t, they may view this as full rebuild with chance of trading Tatum in future
@PolymarketHoops They looked at their roster, knew they wouldn’t be title contenders with the roster they had and got ahead of it early and got ton of draft capital in advance
@LCottrell88219@blazers_palace NO can maybe send Grant + some draft capital to Portland, Portland trades Trey Murphy to Boston , and Jaylen goes to Portland
@freerobby@celticsjk23@Savageboston Well in that case it would’ve been a 1 for 1 swap with similar salaries and getting much better player, a net neutral move. Now the fanbase is torn on brown, gives them leverage to trade Jaylen and save face too
