Bleacher Report on Kelly Olynyk trade idea:
“As good as this Celtics roster is, the playoffs showed us that Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and company can go ice cold from the outside. Adding one more shooter, especially in the frontcourt, helps keep this offense humming and the driving lanes open. Olynyk makes his return to Boston a year after putting up 12.5 points, 6.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists and shooting 39.4 percent in Utah. He’d be the ideal third big for this roster behind Al Horford and Robert Williams III.”

Blazers
If the Celtics have any hesitation about giving Brown a five-year, $295 million extension following his rocky Eastern Conference Finals, the Blazers should be more than happy to make an offer. Simons becomes an immediate starter in Boston after averaging 21.1 points per game this season, taking over Brown’s sidekick role. Little can defend multiple positions and the Celtics can shop the No. 3 overall pick

Betting Miami next game.
Olynyk Yes.
Lillard is too old. JB and JT are also the wrong 2 Superstars to have in supermax contracts taking up like 70% of your cap if all you're going to be doing in shooting 40 three pointers every night. It wasn't a talent problem in Boston this year, there was a coaching/ offensive game plan problem.
I am Sam. Sam I am.

Didn't theyvwant shooters? So they'll trade Prichard and Danilo? Lol

Olynyk is not the answer for when Tatum and brown go cold 🤦🏽♂️
Trade Jaylen Brown,
Jaylen clearly hates the celtics or else he'd return to a team that just got Sam Cassell. Wow what's wrong with him. Oh well Jaylen, good chance you'll just make bigger mistakes on your next team and never lead them anywhere. The celtics made you, and you will never win the same way after or not for awhile .

Simons + #3 pick for 1 year of J.Brown is never happening, Blazers aren't that dumb.
I Like kelly Olynyk, but he is helping anyone win a Championship.
The only deal I’d maybe consider I heard today was bridges and claxton and a pick. And it’s not because Jaylen isn’t better I don’t think, it’s strictly because of team building. Also go get adams back from warriors for defense. Alternatively I’d look at okogie and naz reid as some pieces to consider. Hustle 70” wingspan tough ball pressure guy and a solid frontcourt addition.
T for trade for sure olynk back to the Celtics would be huge Pritchard is to damn small anyways
I give it a B cuz Cassell should be our head coach
