Optimize the lineup! The Celtics and the Cavaliers involved 4-for-2 deals, and Mitchell received All-Star player support

Although the Celtics performed well in the regular season this season, their performance in the playoffs was not ideal, and they stopped in the second round early. You should know that the team retained the championship lineup last season, but their record was not ideal, and they paid about 65 million luxury tax. It is difficult to accept such a result. The headache is that the estimated salary next season is 231 million yuan, and the luxury tax of 263 million yuan, which is close to 500 million yuan. This is really scary. Not only that, Tatum's right Achilles tendon ruptured, the Celtics' prospect of winning the championship next season is slim. The high luxury tax forces the team to make big deals and reduce spending. Pozin and Holiday are most likely to be put on the shelves, and it is inevitable that the lineup will be reorganized in the offseason.

In order to optimize the lineup and release space for the lineup, the players such as Porzingis and Ju Holiday in the team were sent away by trade. In addition, according to the US media "Fadeaway" Eddie Bitar, the author of World, proposed that the Celtics trade to send Jaylen Brown away and gave a potential trading plan, as follows;

Boston Celtics won: Garland, Jarrett Allen, 49th pick in 2025, 58th pick in 2025;

Cleveland Cavaliers won: Jaylen Brown, Sam Hauser

For the Celtics, the team's current dilemma is very helpless. Although it is a pity to send Brown and others, the chips obtained can keep the team good competition next season First of all, as the team's center, Jarrett Allen has performed well this season. He can improve his inside strength by coming to the team. He averaged 13.5 points, 9.7 rebounds, 0.9 blocks per game, with a shooting percentage of 70.6%, and a real shooting percentage of 72.4%. As an off-ball player and a ball player, Garland's creativity, speed and space-creating feeling make him a nightmare for defense. He can make good use of pick-and-roll, and averaged 20.6 points, 2.9 rebounds, 6.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.1 blocks per game. He can become the core of the team, and also get Two picks are used as compensation, which is conducive to the team's strengthening. If this deal can be reached, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone. Not only will the lineup be optimized and space are released, the team will still maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness.

‌For the Cavaliers, the team's situation is similar to that of the Celtics. The team also needs to strengthen the lineup. The chips given out in this deal are also very sincere. So what if you get the players? Sam Hauser thinks a good shooter can enhance the team's bench depth. Jaylen Brown is 1.96 meters tall and has an arm span of 2.12 meters, with a variety of scoring methods, excellent breakthrough ability and simple and direct scoring methods allow him to often find opportunities when facing defense. Whether it is running without the ball, long shot from the outside or breaking layup, Brown performed ease in scoring, scoring 22.2 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.2 steals in the season, shooting percentage of 46.3% and three-point shooting percentage of 32.4%. After coming to the team, Brown, as an All-Star wing, can provide stable singles scoring and key ball ability to make up for the offensive vacuum after Mitchell was double-teamed. In addition, Brown has a strong physique and bulletproof ability, and can mainly defend the opponent's forward core, and solve the defensive loopholes caused by the Cavaliers' original lineup. If achieved, it will be quite good for the team.
