The super mega move that would shake the entire NBA

The two historical teams par excellence in NBA basketball have been the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers; Not in vain are they the ones that have been able to lift the league trophy the most, both on 17 occasions, well above other relevant teams.

For this and other reasons, it is that these teams need to be constantly reinforcing themselves in order to have aspirations of being in the furthest part of the championship; and precisely, they have been two of the squads that have made the most noise during the current transfer market of the best basketball league in the world.

Firstly, the group that makes life in the TD Garden made use of the services of the Italian Danilo Gallinari and Malcolm Brogdon, two good middle and long distance shooters, who together with Jayson Tatum and Marcus Smart will make up an even more fearful team.

Not satisfied with this, the last champions of the Eastern Conference have expressed their intention to continue strengthening their squad, aiming to have not just any player, but has been after the hunt for Kevin Durant, one of the most coveted at this time , to the point of having placed Jaylen Brown as a possible trade token, something that was initially rejected by the Brooklyn Nets.

But Boston, counting on a great figure like Tatum and some other solid pieces, including the Dominican Al Horford, Robert Williams III and Malcolm Brogdon, would always be able to carry out an operation to get Kevin Durant, fulfilling the always high demands of the Nets.

For their part, on the West side, the Lakers are also waiting to give an effective blow to the table, after the arrival of point guard Russell Westbrook a year ago, which did not generate the expected satisfaction, even having the worst season of his career individually, and in the process staying out of the postseason.

In this case, the Lakers have tried to leave Westbrook, who has not been short of suitors, in order to try to bring in Kyrie Irving, someone highly sought after by LeBron James, with whom he has a lot of chemistry since his time with the Cavaliers and also already he knows what it is to win a ring; According to Shams Charania of ‘The Athletic’, Irving would be willing to participate in a transaction like this.

Now, what could be the super deal that is talked about so much? The Celtics could offer Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Derrick White and a 2025 first-round draft pick and a 2027 first-round pick in exchange for Kevin Durant; something not easy because it is known that Brooklyn will not release the ‘tarantula’ so easily, in addition to that they also want to incorporate an ‘All Star’, and therefore the options would focus on Smart or Brown.

And on the other hand, the Lakers would be willing to offer Russell Westbrook, Talen Horton-Tucker, a 2026 first-round pick and a 2027 first-round pick in exchange for the Nets’ Kyrie Irving and Seth Curry. This considering that Irving wouldn’t have a hard time getting out of Brooklyn, knowing all the concentration problems he’s had since he got there, plus the detail of his non-vaccination.

If this materializes, the California team could be putting together a super powerful ‘Big Three’ made up of LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving, despite the problems pointed out with respect to the latter. A trio reminiscent of when LeBron moved to the Miami Heat to join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, winning the championship in 2013.
