Is this version of the Boston Celtics better after the controversial offseason moves by the team’s front office.
Boston traded away not only veteran point guard Marcus Smart and backup big man Mike Muscala but also reserve forward Grant Williams for Kristaps Porzingis and draft assets?

Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix recently appeared on NBC Sports Boston’s “Arbella Early Edition” show to talk it over and evaluate whether the current club is an improvement over last season’s.
