Just how realistic would a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade to the Boston Celtics be?
Just how realistic would a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade to the Boston Celtics be? We have heard some speculation from well-connected members of the national NBA media suggest that such a swap with the Milwaukee Bucks could be on the table given the potential return for the Bucks would match the sort of ask they would have in mind for the Greek Freak. But what about in the other direction? Would Boston be up to trade away the sort of package it would take to get Giannis on the Celtics roster given it would almost certainly require dealing away star Boston forward Jaylen Brown? Advertisement The hosts of the CLNS Media "Garden Report" podcast, Bobby Manning, Noa Dalzell, Jimmy Toscano, A. Sherrod Blakely and John Zannis debated such a deal and its merits on a recent episode of their show. Check it out below!

Can Jaylen Brown lead the Boston Celtics without Jayson Tatum next year?
Can Jaylen Brown lead the Boston Celtics without Jayson Tatum next year? With Jayson Tatum expected to be out for an extended period of time next season for the Boston Celtics, there are many trains of thoughts about how the roster will look moving forward. Outside of the consistent trade speculation surrounding several names on the roster, there is plenty of conversation about superstar Jaylen Brown and if he can be the team's top offensive weapon for next year. Brown, the 2024 NBA Finals MVP averaged over 22 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists last season, while he battled through a knee injury late in the season. While Tatum was named to the All-NBA First Team, Brown failed to get a selection this season due to injuries, but has shown the skillset to carry the team when called upon. No matter what the Celtics do in the offseason, trading away Brown does not seem to make sense if Boston wants to remain a contender in the Eastern Conference. Recently, 'The Big 3 NBA Podcast' on the CLNS Media Network discussed what the expectations could be for Brown next season, and if he truly could be the one who carries the team on his back. Watch the video above to hear the discussion surrounding Jaylen Brown and his status with the Celtics going into next season. There has been plenty of early rumors around the team about potential trades of Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis, but no matter what direction the team opts to go in, there's little doubt that they should rely on Brown as their leader next year.

Is it realistic for the Boston Celtics to trade for Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo?
Is it realistic for the Boston Celtics to trade for Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo? With the Celtics currently a second apron ball club staring down the largest payroll and tax bill in the history of the NBA, a trade for a player making as much as Giannis does makes very little sense at first glance. But what if the deal involved multiple teams, and also sent out other players to help Boston get cheaper as well? Would such a deal need to include one of star forwards Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown? Such scenarios quickly get very complex from a cap rules point of view, but it would not be impossible to get the Bucks star on the Celtics roster. The question is more about whether it would make sense. Advertisement The folks behind the "NBC Sports Boston" YouTube channel put together a clip with Chris Forsberg and Trenni Casey on "Arbella Early Edition" to talk it all over. Check it out below!
