Brunson is one of the players that I promote adding because I know that it’ll have a huge impact. This Celtics team needs a floor general, a player that directs the offense, protects the ball, is a great decision maker, shoots well, and defends his position well.
There’s plenty of Point Guard talent in the NBA, but only a select few that have that combination of skills I mentioned and Brunson has displayed the potential in a lesser role. He has a mature Mike Conley game.
He’ll be worth more in impact than the $20M per season. My primary target is Fred VanVleet because of his intangibles, but Brunson is a close second.
