    Evan Turner Interview

    Earlier today, I chopped it up with former Boston Celtics player (and player development coach) Evan Turner. We spoke about Jaylen Brown’s “favorite season” comments, his upcoming extension eligibility and whether the Celtics need to make a trade for Giannis. I’ll be honest, I also wanted Evan’s take on whether Jalen Brunson is a better Knick than Carmelo Anthony — mainly because I loved watching Melo, and i’ve seen the debate happening within Knicks circles. In fact, I’m sure I saw Jonathan Macri write about it recently… Evan and I wrapped up with some Danhausen talk, just to keep things light!

    A Deep Dive Into Boston's Cap Situation W/ Yossi Gozlan

    You can also listen on Apple and Spotify! I was joined by Yossi Gozlan of Third Apron for today’s Celtics Chronicle podcast. Yossi is an NBA cap expert and does a great job of breaking down the CBA, roster moves, and team construction over on his Substack! In today’s episode, we dove into Boston’s current cap situation, why this summer is key to improving the roster, and how both the TPE and MLE can play a role in Brad Stevens’ moves. Yossi broke down the restrictions that come with both of those exceptions, along with the reasoning why this summer is so important for the Celtics. We also touched on the numerous players who are waiting on Boston’s decision whether to pick up their team option or not, and different ways the Celtics could piece together trade packages in search of upgrades. If you prefer to watch your podcasts, the episode is also live on YouTube. If you’re a fan of salary cap analysis and roster construction, Yossi’s Substack would be a great addition to your weekly reading! If you’re new here, why not stick around? If you’ve been here a while, why not go paid? Get full access to The Celtics Chronicle at www.celticschronicle.com/subscribe

    Exploring Payton Pritchard's Contract Extension Eligibility

    Payton Pritchard is eligible for a contract extension worth UP TO $100 million over 4 years. He’s already 29. His current contract has two years left to run. So, any extension Pritchard signs won’t kick in until he’s 31/32. How much should Boston pay him? Should they pay him? What Brad Stevens decides to do in free agency could give us an indication of what to expect from any negotiations with Pritchard. Tim Sheils and I dive into Pritchard's impact, value and importance to the Celtics, while discussing what would be a fair value payday on his extension. We also take a look at Boston’s current string of players with a team option on their contract, and why those decisions will be key for creating the necessary space to be busy during the summer.

    Mock Trades To Land Giannis In Boston

    With all the talk of Boston being a potential trade partner for Giannis Antetokounmpo, we thought it was about time to share some trade ideas that could work, and potentially plug some holes within the Celtics roster. Jaylen Brown was obviously part of most of these trades, although there are some where we try to keep Brown and Jayson Tatum together. We look at a string of players, including Onyeka Okongwu and Domantas Sabonis, as potential expansions to bringing in Giannis, along with which other members of Boston’s roster might need to leave the franchise this summer. Most of this was just for fun, leaning into the inevitable trade talk that followed Boston’s first-round exit. Get full access to The Celtics Chronicle at www.celticschronicle.com/subscribe
