I’m a diehard Celtics fan. personally, I am so excited about this. Porziņģis is coming off his best year at 27. Smart going into his 10th year. We needed that guaranteed third option for Tatum and brown. Porziņģis is so freaking dominant. I guarantee you they use him in the post more. Celtics have not had a dominant big man since Garnet and look how good they were then with Pierce and Allen. I can’t freaking wait till the season starts. Celtics are so much better right now on paper people did not pay attention to Porziņģis because he was in Washington. Now he will be on a contender and I’m sure Porziņģis is very excited about that because he has not been on a team that can contend for a title ever.
Outstanding video young man. As a fan of Celtics over 5 decades since my teens, I never grown so attached to a player as much as Marcus Smart, and I am still bummed to lose him. He was truly the heart and soul of this particular group. However, kudos to Brad Stevens and the ownership to not sit idle. TJ Warren or Josh Richardson can be had on a sign and trade deal for Grant Williams who is also a fine Celtic during his time with the team. Celtics now have to go out and finish the deal and bring back #18.
I totally understant you. But A changes had to be made B Boston got the best managers in the league. So full trust. When healthy, KP is better than Jokic and Davis. I would say, he is the best 4/5 in the league. A steal for Celtics.
@@j.krii. lol, did you just wrote that, are you high??? Have you ever watch KP vs Jokic or Davis? KP's mother doesn't think he's better than Jokic and AD!!! For one Jokic has been killing him since 2017 so much so that the Knicks put him on the 4 just to avoid Jokic. He gave him 40 at MSG! Thank you for the lols though, my Latvian friend!!!
Great video, if the C’s could get Jalen Johnson or AJ Griffin for Pritchard + picks that would be incredible, im skeptical that the Hawks would do it though just because of Pritchards fit defensively
One thing I rarely hear about Marcus is the fact that he didn't know his role. He thought he was one of the "big 3". Thinking it is OK, even somewhat desirable. Playing like it when your skills aren't there isn't.
Seems that a lot of people have seen the Denver system as a blueprint for a new and effective approach. Begins with a big man who can shoot, pass, and post up, and move off the ball.
agreed with most points and picks. here's my own takes: 1. celtics dont need another pg. they're better off trading pp to open up playing time for JD davison or finally bring over 5 year vet euroleague rising star yam madar. i'd pass on seth curry as well unless we trade both pp AND brogdon. celtics pg rotation as of now: starter: white (28-32 mins) backup; brogdon (16-20 mins) garbage time: pp (0 mins) maine; JD (0 mins) international: madar (0 mins) pp has expressed not wanting to be the garbage time pg anymore. so we either clear the way for him or trade him. jd is also ready to be the garbage time pg. 2. celtics do need a backup wing if walsh isn't ready. there's approximately 24 mins behind JT and JB. if walsh is ready then there's no need to spend assets or money here. just get a vet min wing. starters: jt and JB (72 mins) backup: hasuer (16-20 mins), walsh (4-8 mins) garbage time: champegnie (0 mins) international; begarin (0 mins) a hawk wing like jalen johnson would indeed be ideal. a straight swap with pp works. both are expiring contracts. this way walsh is not thrust immediately into a regular role. 3. backup big is our biggest area of need unless we think kornet is ready for nightly rotation mins: starters; rob (28 mins) and KP (32 mins) backup; al (20 mins)n and kornet (16 mins) garbage time: kabengele (0 mins) there's no garbage time 2nd big either if kornet is the 4th big. i'm assuming here blake and grant walk. i'd consider trading pp or brogdon for that backup big. someone like santi aldama would be an ideal candidate as he's rotting as the 5th big in a talented memphis bigs group.
Yeah a lot of people complain about all of our cards being combo guards but I just don't think that's a terrible thing in 2023. In the '90s and early 2000s, when basketball was very different that was important. But now it is point guards are as much there for their off-ball shooting while they're ball dominant wings control the game and that's certainly going to be true for a lot of Celtics games. I just don't think you need like a pass first, rondo type in 2023. You just need a guy that can switch, occasionally make a 3 and play defense.
@@michaelcorcoran8768 most of our guards really arent combo guards. they're just forced into that role because of our depth and because guards like smart suck at playing offball. white ran the point for pop for 5 years and was described by udoka as Mr. 0.5 basketball. he's the last remaining epitome of how to run a spursian offense. brogdon was dropping 7+ dimes per game for indiana from 2019-2021. people suddenly forget how he can play pg because he was asked to focus on scoring here as the 6th man. agreed with your main point. the celtics run a wing-based system much like the luka mavs. teams dont necessarily need a pg-led offense to excel. just ask the 2023 nba champ denver nuggets who run a center based system. the kings run a center based system as well. so did the wizards when beall was injured (running everything through KP in the high post). so yeah. for mazzula ball. i want pgs who can defend, shoot 3s, make the right pass, not turn the bal over and not be greedy for money/being a starter. again someone like d.white. a player who epitomizes spursian culture and basketball.

i love the idea of a versatile big next to the jays, it’ll open up aspects of the game we haven’t seen much of in the Tatum/Brown era
I NEEDA SEE JRICH IN GREEN AGAIN RUN IT BACK
Thats my guy right there but we need more size imo at the guard/wing
yeah he was a bucket but a big time ball stopper. we need more ball movement not iso scorers
@@smoochumsmcgee what? richardson is known as a playmaker, esp in miami.
@@JCruz83JRich 6’6 I feel like that’s wing sized. Though I doubt the Pels would trade JRich anyways.
If Prichard could be something else somewhere I don’t see why he can’t be that here, give the kid a bigger role

Sad to see smart go but We kept getting so close to winning an 18th we needed changes thank u for everything Smart
Great video, if the C’s could get Jalen Johnson or AJ Griffin for Pritchard + picks that would be incredible, im skeptical that the Hawks would do it though just because of Pritchards fit defensively
Alex Caruso would be a good pick up
WOWWWWWWW i didnt think of him.. hes the perfect bench player for us but hes gonna be too expensive
Excellent acquisition!

Still feel like the Celtics need another depth piece especially if brogden's injury is an issue
KP had a good season last year playing in Washington
Cs Up always, lets lock in and get back to ECF next year!
I would Def trade PP n a 2nd round pick for Saddiq Bey. He loves shooting here
great analysis
ניתוח נהדר
Brad could try to convince Derrick Jones to sign for the MLE
agreed with most points and picks. here's my own takes:
1. celtics dont need another pg. they're better off trading pp to open up playing time for JD davison or finally bring over 5 year vet euroleague rising star yam madar. i'd pass on seth curry as well unless we trade both pp AND brogdon. celtics pg rotation as of now:
starter: white (28-32 mins)
backup; brogdon (16-20 mins)
garbage time: pp (0 mins)
maine; JD (0 mins)
international: madar (0 mins)
pp has expressed not wanting to be the garbage time pg anymore. so we either clear the way for him or trade him. jd is also ready to be the garbage time pg.
2. celtics do need a backup wing if walsh isn't ready. there's approximately 24 mins behind JT and JB. if walsh is ready then there's no need to spend assets or money here. just get a vet min wing.
starters: jt and JB (72 mins)
backup: hasuer (16-20 mins), walsh (4-8 mins)
garbage time: champegnie (0 mins)
international; begarin (0 mins)
a hawk wing like jalen johnson would indeed be ideal. a straight swap with pp works. both are expiring contracts. this way walsh is not thrust immediately into a regular role.
3. backup big is our biggest area of need unless we think kornet is ready for nightly rotation mins:
starters; rob (28 mins) and KP (32 mins)
backup; al (20 mins)n and kornet (16 mins)
garbage time: kabengele (0 mins)
there's no garbage time 2nd big either if kornet is the 4th big. i'm assuming here blake and grant walk. i'd consider trading pp or brogdon for that backup big. someone like santi aldama would be an ideal candidate as he's rotting as the 5th big in a talented memphis bigs group.

@@michaelcorcoran8768 most of our guards really arent combo guards. they're just forced into that role because of our depth and because guards like smart suck at playing offball.
white ran the point for pop for 5 years and was described by udoka as Mr. 0.5 basketball. he's the last remaining epitome of how to run a spursian offense.
brogdon was dropping 7+ dimes per game for indiana from 2019-2021. people suddenly forget how he can play pg because he was asked to focus on scoring here as the 6th man.
agreed with your main point. the celtics run a wing-based system much like the luka mavs. teams dont necessarily need a pg-led offense to excel. just ask the 2023 nba champ denver nuggets who run a center based system. the kings run a center based system as well. so did the wizards when beall was injured (running everything through KP in the high post).
so yeah. for mazzula ball. i want pgs who can defend, shoot 3s, make the right pass, not turn the bal over and not be greedy for money/being a starter. again someone like d.white. a player who epitomizes spursian culture and basketball.
I want the Celtics to go get Kris Dunn. Perfect backup version of Marcus Smart. That also allows the Celtics to trade Brogdon down the road.
We need a pure point guard to make it easier to score for JT and JB
I'm okay with the point guards we have now, but I think we might need a little depth at wing.
KP is not a loone player. But he might be a devastating piece in Celtics attack and defence.
Brad Stevens need sign Bruce Brown, get Royce O'Neal or Robert Covington trade this coming offseason 🤔🤔🤔
W video
Smart a playmaker, if he was one, theyd be champs. Apparently he is not. This is a huge win for boston.
wats next? pauls paul george n fred van fleet. lets get it brad stevens!
Harrison Barnes - could be top 7-8 and get actual playoff minutes
I like that idea as K P. Injury insurance
D. Rose needs to sign for the mid level and we can either fill a hospital or win a championship
I’d also be happy with Bruce Brown on the mid level but I don’t think it happens unless he takes the hometown discount
True and lol
Dejounte Murray(Priority)
Monte Morris
Josh Richardson
JRich 💯%
Celtics have 4 roster open if they let go grant which grant RFA
Sign Rajon Rondo for veterans minimum
All we need now is a new coach please
DJM OR JOHN COLLINS ?
Kp is the best big man in NBA..
Now that Celtics have lost their only PG, they should sign Westbrook.
All this trade is useless, Celtics ain't going anywhere with Joe Mazulla and his jack up 3's antics!
This team has the most versatile injuries in the league…!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂💯🤕🏥🏥🏥🏥🏥
Time for smart to die his hair blue now
Boston should try getting Terry Rozier & Jeff Green back
Celtics losing ,,man how you get rid of heart and soul of Boston Celtics Marcus Smart..
KP is a Celtic, what’s next… Simple we lose with KP now…!!!! 🏥🏥🏥🤦♂️🤦♂️🧑🦽🧑🦽🧑🦽🧑🦽🦄🦄🦄🏥💯🍀✌️
*I SAID IT WHEN THE KNICKS TRADED HIM AND I'M SAYING*
*IT NOW...KP "IS NOT" A BIG TIME PLAYER IN THE 2ND HALF*
*OF 90% OF THE GAMES HE PLAYS IN.*
*HE ONLY "STARTS OFF" GOOD HITTING HIS SHOTS THAN*
*BY THE 3RD OR 4TH OUARTER HE'S NON-EXISTENT*

*HAVE NOTICE THAT IN HIS ENTIRE NBA CAREER*
*AND THATS "EXACTLY WHY" HE HAVE GOTTEN TRADED*

Too bad he isn’t a Celtic I was really hoping to watch them lose another finals
I’ve been WAITING SOOOO long for this team to replace ALL THE INJURIES we had with Gordon Hayward…!!! Then what do you know Pooooiif just like that we get Porzingis in Boston… Dreams Do come true…!!!!!!
