NBA: 2022 New Year’s resolution for every Eastern Conference team

Boston Celtics – Can the Jays play together?

The Boston Celtics continue to be disappointing. They have two young All-Stars, and the team plays to the level of a .500 team. Boston needs a shake-up, and if that means trading Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown, that might be the solution.

If not, they will end up like Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony, two individually gifted players who were nothing special while playing together.

Charlotte Hornets: Make a trade for a big man

The Hornets are currently in the bubble spot. To make the playoffs, they will need to improve, and one position they desperately need improvement in is the center position. LaMelo Ball is the team’s leading rebounder, and while Mason Plumlee is a fine center, he is more of a backup than a starter.

The Hornets should see the asking prices on Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis and try to make an affordable move.
