Celtics beat Knicks to Jrue Holiday trade, but could Knicks now be interested in Malcolm Brogdon?
Similar player. Not as significant an impact but would have a lower price tag. Teams are calling Portland on Brogdon. More: nydailynews.com/2023/10/01/bos… – 1:16 PM

Is the Bucks trade for Damian Lillard still a good deal if it allowed the Celtics to get Jrue Holliday? – 1:15 PM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
I’m not one of the people concerned the #Bucks downgraded going from Jrue to Dame. That’s crazy. But you have to wonder how realistically they thought through the fact that Jrue could end up in Boston. – 1:11 PM
Tim Reynolds @ByTimReynolds
Jrue Holiday makes anyone better. He’d make the Red Sox better. He’d make the Patriots better. He’d make the Bruins better (but they’d still lose to Tkachuk and the Cats). Big move for the Celtics. – 1:00 PM

Celtics in three offseason trades:
In:
Jrue Holiday
Kristaps Porzingis
Five 2nd-round picks
Out:
Marcus Smart
Robert Williams
Malcolm Brogdon
Grant Williams
2029 unprotected 1st
Fair to question how much better they got, if at all. Making a HUGE bet on Porzingis’ health. – 12:52 PM
John Karalis @John_Karalis
Let’s rearrange this summer to get to the heart of what Brad Stevens did.
Marcus Smart is now Jrue Holiday
Robert Williams is now Kristaps Porzingis.
The defense changes a bit, and it’s all about shooting. This is leaning heavily into Mazzulla ball. – 12:51 PM
Yossi Gozlan @YossiGozlan
All eyes are now on what the Sixers and Clippers end up doing with neither team getting Jrue Holiday.
James Harden talks could revive, but the Clippers could also revisit acquiring Malcolm Brogdon. – 12:44 PM
Vincent Goodwill @VinceGoodwill
The Celtics had three rim protecting question marks in terms of health. Now, they have two…
But thanks to acquiring Jrue Holiday (confirmed to @YahooSports) they also have a secondary player in addition to replacing Marcus Smart as perimeter defender – 12:15 PM
Jeff Goodman @GoodmanHoops
Celtics just became the NBA title favorites with the addition of Jrue Holiday.
Malcolm Brogdon didn’t want to be in Boston, and Robert Williams was unreliable.
Holiday is 33 and is still one of the better all-around point guards in the league. – 12:14 PM
Matt Williams @StatsWilliams
Since entering the league in 2009-10, Jrue Holiday is 1 of 3 guards to make All-Defense at least 5 times, along with Chris Paul (7) and Tony Allen (6).
All of Holiday’s selections have come since 2017-18. – 12:14 PM
Eurohoops @Eurohoopsnet
Jrue Holiday will play with the Boston Celtics
Traded by the Portland Trail Blazers for Robert Williams, Malcolm Brogdon, and two picks, the 33-year-old American guard will begin a new chapter in the NBA: eurohoops.net/en/nba-news/15… – 12:14 PM
Justin Garcia @tmjgarcia
Jrue and Marcus Smart are so similar in many ways with minor differences in what each are better at on both ends of the floor. Boston gets to undo the worst part of the KP deal at the cost of a 1st rounder, a guy thats never healthy and a guy who knew he was traded 2 months ago – 12:12 PM
Yossi Gozlan @YossiGozlan
The Boston Celtics frontcourt is now thinner with the loss of Robert Williams III. First and second restrictions will limit how they can replace him via trade.
But for a player like Jrue Holiday, they felt it was best to acquire him and worry about fixing the frontcourt later. – 12:12 PM
Erik Slater @erikslater_
Boston is going to have guards across the league in JAIL with Jrue Holiday and Derrick White at the POA. – 12:09 PM
Justin Garcia @tmjgarcia
Jrue Holiday is a near perfect fit in Boston. Don’t do the exact same thing you were complaining others did with the Dame trade and downplay his actual ability and fit in this scenario – 12:09 PM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
The #Celtics can extend Jrue Holiday at a massive annual value (40% increase on $37M, 8% raises). That would worry me. If he wants to be here & will work out a friendlier deal, that’s another plus. C’s and Brown, Horford, Hauser agent Jason Glushon have worked together often. – 12:08 PM
Christos Tsaltas @Tsaltas46
2023-24 Boston Celtics starting lineup
Jrue Holiday
Jaylen Brown
Jayson Tatum
Kristaps Porzingis
Robert Williams III
Bench: Horford, White, Banton, Pritchard, Stevens Walsh, Brissett, Hauser.
Championship caliber group. Huge upgrade for the Celtics. #Celtics#NBA – 12:08 PM
Brian Robb @BrianTRobb
Celtics giving up the 2 firsts plus Rob Williams here for Holiday is quite the all-in push. If ownership is willing to spend to retain Jrue Holiday, it could be a home run move as long as front office can find sufficient help for frontcourt. – 12:08 PM
Kevin O’Connor @KevinOConnorNBA
The Bucks became the East favorites over the Celtics by acquiring Dame. But Boston takes back that lead with this Jrue Holiday acquisition. – 12:08 PM
Kyle Draper @KyleDraperTV
The #Celtics with a major move the day before media day getting Jrue Holiday. They give up a lot but I love Holiday. What do y’all think of the move? #NBA – 12:07 PM
Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
A backcourt of Jrue Holiday and Derrick White is gonna cause so many problems defensively for other teams – 12:07 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
The basketball gods are unquestionably gonna make sure the East finals comes down to some play with Dame squaring up Jrue – 12:06 PM
Chris Herrington @ChrisHerrington
Boston has a lot of injury/decline risk in that Horford/Porzingis frontcourt but Jrue/White/Brown/Tatum is ferocious.
Are we on Brogdon/RobWill trade watch now? How far can we string this along? – 12:04 PM
Tony Mejia @MejiaDinero
Jrue Holiday to the Celtics doesn’t quite make the East a 2-team race, but it sets up clear co-favorites. The odds will almost certainly illustrate this soon. – 12:04 PM
Kyle Neubeck @KyleNeubeck
Think this is high (or maybe medium?) risk, high reward for the Celtics. They are going to be able to put together some incredible lineups and Jrue is awesome, but there’s a lot riding on Porzingis staying healthy – 12:03 PM
Ben Anderson @BensHoops
A lot of pressure on Kristaps Porzingis now to stay healthy and contribute throughout the playoffs.
Celtics are certainly contenders, but that’s a lot for potentially one year of Jrue.
Also, Portland might get another first out of flipping Time Lord and Brogdon. – 12:03 PM
Evan Sidery @esidery
The Trail Blazers have traded Jrue Holiday to the Celtics for Robert Williams, Malcolm Brogdon, 2024 1st via Warriors, and a 2029 unprotected 1st, per @wojespn.

The Celtics have acquired Jrue Holiday from the Blazers in exchange for Brogdon, Rob Williams, the ’24 Warriors pick and a ’29 first, a league source confirms. – 12:01 PM

Damian Lillard to Milwaukee …
Jrue Holiday to Boston …
The upper crust of the Eastern Conference got infinitely more interesting this week.

ICYMI, this week @KyleNeubeck, @rich_hofmann and I discussed the Lillard trade and how that impacts the 76ers, and the market for Harden. We debated their chances to land Jrue, and how’d fit. And we rated Morey’s tenure in Philly.

The Celtics maintain interest in trading for Jrue Holiday, but there’s currently a significant gap in negotiations with the Trail Blazers, per @AdamHimmelsbach.

“In the playoffs, [Jrue] Holiday might be better than [Damian] Lillard.”
Former Bucks Head Coach and Hall of Famer George Karl weighed in on the Damian Lillard trade.

Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Seen Heat fans discuss the Blazers trade package as worse than what the Heat were offering. We will see what happens with Jrue, but I think it will end up being way better.
Ayton is a way better fit than Herro (and a better player imo)
2029 Bucks pick is an elite draft asset… – 1:11 PM
