as a Boston fan I feel a bit conflicted on the trade, it has upside but damn a frontcourt of Porzingis, Timelord and 37 years old Al scares me
The odds of each of them being injured throughout the year is high but the odds of all three being injured all at once is pretty low. It's like an injury roulette game.
and KP has been pretty healthy for 1.5 years now.
Porzingis had a pretty good year of health so if I was a Celtics fan I'd be keen on the deal (he's certainly an upgrade on Brogdon who's quite injury prone himself). I'd be more worried if I was a Clippers fan as I now have Kawhi, PG and Brogdon - that's where my worry would be for injury concern.
Sorry to see Brogdon go, but we needed more in the bigs, and we should be able to cover the guards.
Most of all, I trust Brad.
For 5-10 games next year Boston is going to be scary. They might even be consecutive games.
Porzingis as a celtic, OMG.
Marcus Morris complained about his role yesterday and shipped out today. Will be able to jack up as many shots as he wants on the Wizards
