We have reached a crucial day for the Boston Celtics’ 2020-21 season. In fact, given the team’s recent stretch, it may be the most crucial.
It’s 2021 NBA trade deadline day.
Like most other things, the deadline has been affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Most years, this day takes place in February. In 2020-21, due to the season starting in December–after the 2019-20 season concluded in October–it had to be pushed back.
Which is a good thing. Cs fans at least have the improving weather to tie their happiness to since the Celtics have been a blatant disappointment all season.
