Why The Boston Celtics Do The Deal
Of course, the Celtics don’t do this deal unless they have to. Unfortunately, they may not have much of a choice.
Brown doesn’t like the city. That doesn’t seem reversible. Meanwhile, he’s an unrestricted free agent after next summer.
If he leaves the Celtics and they don’t get anything in return, it will be a disaster.
This deal has them getting plenty in return. In fact, they’re receiving three quality players for Brownb. This deal makes Boston deeper even if they’re losing the best player in it.
