Celtics-Cavaliers


The trade everyone is talking about. Some say the Cavaliers got the better end of the stick and some say the Celtics. I am here to tell you that you are both wrong. This trade was extremely beneficial to both teams. Isiah Thomas- Jae Crowder- Ante Zizic. And the Net's unprotected 2018 first round draft pick for Irving. Yes, sounds like a lot. Which it is. But think about it this way. Isiah Thomas, who is a phenomenal guard, was bound to be resigned at a higher salary, which would hit into Boston's cap space. Jae Crowder freed up more room in the financial department for Boston and Ante Zizic is just a cherry on top to add more room for Boston. Yes they are receiving just Kyrie Irving. But this man has his best basketball ahead of him. He was moulded into the player he is through Lebron James leadership in Cleveland and has all of the resources to shine at Boston alongside Gordon Hayward. Isiah and Lebron will play well together as Isiah will have to adapt to James' playing style. As IT4 showed last season, he can do just about anything offensively. As well as adding a piece like Jae Crowder to the Cavs already superior lineup, it will make for a very interesting matchup when these 2 teams meet this coming season. Great trades for both teams, so stop saying one is better than the other!
