To their credit, their first move was about Brogdon. Once that deal fell apart, it looks like Brad panicked a little....beacuse yes, Smart brings a lot to the table, stats only tell a part of it....letting him go it's a huge price to pay for KP.

On a related note, if Smart is gone this will mean a huge boost for Pritchard playing time, which may not be a bad thing -I sorta like him and think he's underappreciated. He's no Smart ofc.

The Celtics didn't lose because of their lack of a big. They lost because of their terrible team play and coaching. I'm happy to see them lose because it's boring to watch them play, but it's mystifying to me how NBA players on a team that is legitimate championship contender would be content with that level of offense.

But maybe the tall guy can make it easier for the coach to mix up their offense.
