Description
With the Boston Celtics rolling and their path to hanging Banner 18 looking more possible than it has in many years, you can't fault fans of the storied ball club for hoping for a reunion with former Boston big men Daniel Theis or Kelly Olynyk. Or failing that, team president Brad Stevens getting a deal done for rumored target Isaiah Stewart to fortify the team's frontcourt.
But even fairly modest trades like these are probably not in the cards for the Celtics this season, who can't follow through with an offer that makes sense given the exigencies of the NBA's new collective bargaining agreement or the team's current structure.
But the team will almost certainly make at least a few lesser moves to get better ahead of the NBA's 2024 trade deadline in Early February, so the hosts of CLNS Media's "Celtics Lab" podcast linked up with Cap Sheets' Yossi Gozlan to try to project what it is Boston actually will end up doing.
We also get into why those fun but unrealistic deals bringing back Celtics alumni or Beef Stew are unlikely or impossible, and get caught up on the last Boston news of 2023.
