I’m sad to see Jrue go. But if he had to go, this ain’t a bad trade by the Celtics. The Globe has more on Brad Stevens’s first move in the partial dismantling/rebuilding of the team. … Sam Quinn at CBS Sports is giving the Celts an ‘A’ grade and the Trail Blazers a lowly ‘C-‘ for the trade. … Next up: Kristaps Porzingis. The Kristaps rumors are swirling all about. Even the Times of India is getting into the act. … 

Update – The Globe’s Gary Washburn has the Celtics picking Stanford center Maxime Raynaud in Wednesday’s NBA draft. That would be another smart move — and another sign of Kristaps’s imminent departure.
