Maybe we have a chance?
2022 Celtics were at one point 16-19. A few weeks later they traded for Derick White. They finished 20-6.
2024 Mavs- 26-23 around this time. Trade for PJ and Gafford. Finished the year 21-8.
We saw at the beginning of the year when the role players were clicking, 12-3.
There have been a bunch of close losses. A really good starter might the difference in a lot of games. A guy like Lavine might be enough difference, might not be. But won’t know unless you make that trade.
