Bill Simmons (whom I admit is a bum and a flog) hated it at the time, especially about the giving the Spurs our 2026 first round pick part.
I recall several other online Celtics fans (esp on the Realgm forum) hated it too at the time.
In just about every other team in the league, White would be a starter (in some ways I honestly would prefer him to start over Marcus Smart)
I'm pretty sure it was a pick swap right, wasn't it? The only pick you gave up outright was the 20-something pick in the last draft, which they took Blake Wesley with.
Not really a massive price to pay for a guy still in his twenties and on a cost-controlled contract.
O/T, but I'm not really sure how sustainable Boston's outside shooting is. Have been insanely hot all season, including several guys who have traditionally been only so-so shooters.
