A recent trade orchestrated by Celtics' President of Basketball Operations, Brad Stevens, sent shockwaves through the NBA. The three-team trade involved players like Kristaps Porzingis, Marcus Smart, and Tyus Jones, as well as future draft picks.
This trade highlights the Celtics' acknowledgment that their current team composition fell short of championship caliber. The Bruins, facing potential retirements of key players like Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci, have also recognized the need for changes.
While the Bruins don't require a complete rebuild, Sweeney and Neely must make significant moves to strengthen their pursuit of a Stanley Cup. Replacing key players and injecting fresh dynamics will be crucial steps towards that goal.
