Why The Boston Celtics Do The Deal 

There may be many who would not expect Boston to make such a move. They need a point guard, don’t they? Does Anthony have the skills of a point guard?

Isn’t he the kind of player who thinks about scoring first? Sure, that’s fine. It is also important to keep in mind that distributing the ball is not the only thing a point guard needs to do.

It is more important than anything else that the Boston Celtics find a reliable ball handler for their team. Anthony will be able to handle this responsibility with ease.

Meanwhile, the Celtics are relying on a committee to make plays. He’ll fit right in if he can figure out the intricacies of the motion-heavy system they have in place.
