Rival executive reportedly upset by Celtics’ trade for Malcolm Brogdon

When the Celtics made the trade for Malcolm Brogdon, it was viewed around the NBA world that he was the player that will perfectly solve two of their biggest needs.

Brogdon offers playmaking and shotmaking the Celtics could’ve used in the last three games of their Finals loss to the Warriors. He averaged 18.9 points on .447/.352/.872 shooting splits and 6.3 assists per game over the last three seasons with the Pacers.

That might be why a rival executive was upset to see the Celtics pull off the trade for Brogdon while giving up very little.
