The Boston Celtics and the rest of the NBA are about to enter the midpoint of the 2025-26 NBA regular season, and players who signed new contracts during the offseason are either about to be traded or about to be traded. At this point, the rough outlines of how the season might play out (and what teams can do to change those outcomes through trades) are coming into focus.
Teams that aren’t good enough to compete for a championship will need to make tough choices under the current punitive collective bargaining agreement (CBA), while other teams that are doing well may need to decide whether their current success is worth the investment. For the Celtics, what are the team’s needs on the trade market? Big guy? wing? Cut your salary regardless of returns? Mixed goals? The host of “Havlicek Stole the Pod” sat down with HoopsHype’s Cyro Asseo to discuss what Boston should do heading into the trade deadline, as well as the broader trends around the league affecting the trade landscape and what other moves may be coming.
