Monday night at TD Garden, the Boston Celtics got an up-close look at a potential new teammate. At least, if they act on ESPN's latest suggestion. Their team of insiders shared their best trade fits for this year's title contenders. Fittingly, that group includes the squad that is defying expectations and has surged into second in the Eastern Conference.
Their pitch to Boston is to acquire a big man to bolster their options at center and to trade Anfernee Simons to get out of the luxury tax. If they do so, part two of their plan is to strike a deal for Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu.
