Sometimes, problems fester. Other times, they suddenly explode. That’s true in the NBA as well.

Sometimes, a situation takes a long time to degrade. People are anticipating it for a long time. Eventually, it may come to a head. 

Just look at the relationship between Bradley Beal and the Washington Wizards. People have suggested that Washington should trade their star shooting guard for years.

It feels like any offseason, they could finally do it. On the other hand, the relationship between Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics seems to be quickly exploding.

Rumors are widely suggesting that he could be due for a departure this summer. 

Could acquiring Beal from the Wizards keep him in Boston?
