You can’t have two players making 70% of the cap anymore, that’s why the trade was made. Reality of new CBA. The Celtics are the 1st team to have to deal with this, won’t be the last. 2nd apron is tough to deal with.
PG is a worse player than JB but allows Tatum to be the #1 guy
I understand the CBA argument as to why the Celtics traded Jaylen Brown.
They don’t want two max guys going forward.
But to trade him for an aging player coming off a PED suspension with an equally bloated contract makes little sense.
He really deal Brown and punted on Tatum’s prime for 1 additional year of financial flexibility?
So let’s look at this Jaylen Brown trade…
The 76ers are never getting rid of Joel Embiid on this deal. So might as well make the most of the combo of Maxey, VJ, and Embiid.
For the Celtics, Paul George can opt into his PO next season, and will be a massive expiring that Boston can flip in a deal to acquire a massive piece alongside Jayson Tatum. And they got 2 firsts out of it.
I think Boston wins this trade in the end because of how I feel about the FO and what I think Brad Stevens can do with PG’s contract and assets to make the next move. But Jaylen Brown is the exact type of wing this 76ers team needs to at least try and win.
Going from the Giannis sweepstakes to Paul George while setting the Sixers up with the best team they’ve had possibly ever is the worst thing I’ve seen from the Celtics in my lifetime
