- Boston Celtics: I think people are underestimating the amount of damage Kyrie did here. Tatum and Jaylen Brown should be infinitely better without Kyrie complaining to the media the team needs Channing Frye and Richard Jefferson.

They will pick up a big on the buyout market at some point, and Enes Kanter can score and rebound.
