Bruno Caboclo also on his way to Boston in the deal, source says

I like it.  I also like that we're recouping a #2, which we are getting low on.

I wonder if Woj meant Bruno Fernando, who actually plays for the Hawks?  Or is it "two years away from being two years away" Caboclo from Houston?

Balances out the roster.

so TT in exchange for 2 players that didn't live up to their draft hype.  swell.   At least Dunn can play some PG and defend.  his offense makes Smart look like Steph Curry

Hey Kris Dunn finally makes it to Boston

I love Kris Dunn's defence and length. Pretty decent passer too.

BRUNO FERNANDO is on his way to the Celtics, per sources.

You were right Roy

You're right, it's  Fernando.  He just corrected tweet.

Another useless backup PG from Atlanta. Yippee!

Celtics were playing the long game

Feels like Yam Madur is not going to get a roster spot with this trade, unless he blows staff away in summer league.  Too much PG depth suddenly. Unless they have designs to move Smart, which I seriously doubt.

Brad really seems intent on rebuilding the team around defense and length.  That is what Ime has been emphasizing. I think re-establishing a tough defensive identity will really help us get our swagger back. And also improve our offense, especially on transition.

I like that it clears the center log jam.
I do wonder if it means We won’t go after Lonzo or some of the other guards we have been attached to.

It certainly makes it interesting. Maybe Yam spends another year overseas on a different team? Kris Dunn is quite an injury risk though, so he probably won't be available for the whole year given our luck
