Malcolm Brogdon wasn’t a great fit for Boston, Kristaps Porzingis to Boston would be amazing https://t.co/IqTV1NnQEA

So let me get this straight…
Porzingis was great last year
Beal is a great player
Kuzma was great last yearBut the Wizards were a disaster and had no talent and were bad?

So you’re telling me that this is a straight swap of Brogdon for Porzingis for the Celtics ????? Omg Brad is different dawg
— Mike (@MikeAdxx) June 21, 2023
Porzingis had a 3PA rate of .350 last season
That would be the lowest of any Celtic…with Brown being .352
Anyone who suggests he's nothing but a 3pt shooting big or that it's just adding another guy to chuck 3PAs prob didn't really watch Porzingis play

If the Celtics add a third big time scorer in Porzingis, I wouldn't mind seeing Brad go after Ricky Rubio to help with the team's passing game.
Both the Suns and Cavs turned corners under Rubio.
