Earlier today, Celts, Wizards and Grizzlies reached a three-party deal. The specific plan was that Celts got polzingis, signed 202325 (from Grizzly Bear), in the first round of the first four protection of the Warriors in 2024 (from the Grizzly Bear), the Wizards got the Taus-Jones, garinali, moscala, the 35th sign in 2023 (from the Celts), and the grizzly bear got the smart. After The news was revealed by various reporters, US media The Athletic rated The three-party transaction.
Celtics: A
The compatibility between Porzingis and the Green Army is not a problem. He can play the role of a space-based insider, white, Brogden, jellun Brown, Tatum, Bozin, the space of this lineup will be very good and the attack power will be very strong.
After leaving The Lone Ranger, Porzingis played 82 regular season games for the Wizards, averaging 22.9 points 8.5 rebounds 2.7 assists 1.5 cap, field goal percentage 49.2%, three point shooting rate 38.2%, free throw shooting rate 85.5%. During this period, his real hit rate was 62.6%, which was also very good and very efficient. He has also become a reliable rebounder and can also provide a certain protective basket.
It is not difficult to put Porzingis into the rotation of the Green Army, which means that 37-year-old veteran Horford will take a back seat, or when Robert Williams cannot play, Horford and Bozin can play together. They can also let Bojin play a substitute and take the role of a super sixth person.
In addition to getting Bojin, the Celtics also got two first-round signatures. This operation is absolutely great.
Grizzly bear: B
The grizzly bear has encountered great difficulties recently. Jones wants to leave the team, and Morant will miss the first 25 games of next season. The position of the guard is in a serious hurry. But they handled it well. Smart is definitely an upgrade compared with Jones. He can serve as the team’s organizational responsibility during Morant’s absence, and he can also become a strong helper for Morant after his return.
In addition to the organization, smart can also provide experience and defense to the grizzly bear and inject tough spirit into the team, which is also what the grizzly bear needs now.
In this deal, the grizzly bear paid a great price, but it was worth the money.
Genius: C
Compared with the previous bill deal, the operation of the Wizards is better, but it is still very confusing. For this team, have they forgotten that they can ask for the first round of signing in the transaction negotiation?
The introduction of Jones is a good operation for wizards. Paul is not in the future plan of the team, so the team needs an organizer, and Jones can play such a role. Jones is very good at organizing: There are many assists and few mistakes. Besides, he can score many points. He also worked hard on the defensive side, although his height made him the short board of the team on the defensive side. For wizards, they got a great player.
Although Bojin has player options and Bill has a trading veto, I still don’t understand how wizards can not change a first round sign after trading the best two players in the team. Jones’s contract has the last year left, and he will leave the team freely next year Yogueta, so this is another bad operation for the Wizards.
