How does the Desmond Bane trade from the Grizzlies to the Magic affect the Boston Celtics?
How does the Desmond Bane trade from the Grizzlies to the Magic affect the Boston Celtics? How does the Desmond Bane trade from the Memphis Grizzlies to the Orlando Magic affect the Boston Celtics, if at all? The Magic ponied up four first round draft picks, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Cole Anthony to secure Bane to their roster as they mushed their chips in to make a run at the 2026 NBA Finals in what is looking like a down season for Boston while star Celtics forward Jayson Tatum recovers from a torn Achilles tendon injury. Does this move change the order of the NBA's Eastern Conference for the 2025-26 NBA season? What about in future seasons? Was the move an overpay, or did it make sense given the market and the assets going out in the deal? The hosts of the CLNS Media "The Big Three NBA" podcast, A. Sherrod Blakely, Gary Washburn, and Kwani Lunis took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk the trade and its impact over. Check it out below!

Could the Boston Celtics trade for vet Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant?
Is there any chance that the Boston Celtics could trade for vet Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant? It is one of the biggest open secrets in the entire NBA media sphere that the Suns star will likely be on the move this offseason after a failed experiment with the Suns organization. But do the Celtics have the sort of offer that could land the future Hall of Fame forward in a way that makes sense for Phoenix as well? And if they did have such an offer, would Durant even be interested in the move, given he would be a rental otherwise with only a single season left on his current contract?

Should the Boston Celtics trade Jrue Holiday or Kristaps Porzingis?
Should the Boston Celtics trade Jrue Holiday or Kristaps Porzingis? Should the Boston Celtics trade Jrue Holiday or Kristaps Porzingis to get out of the second apron? The Celtics are looking at getting hit with the worst of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA)'s second apron penalties after having a historic payroll and tax bill set to come due for the NBA's 2025-26 season if they do not trim some salary. The veteran guard and Latvian big man are two of the names most often floated by analysts as an option to move to such an effect. But would that truly be in the interest of the team if they are trying to contend again soon when star forward Jayson Tatum is healed up from his torn Achilles tendon?
