Atlanta Hawks

Christmas wishlist: Find the right deal for John Collins 

The Atlanta Hawks have improved this season (especially compared to how bad they were at the start of last season) but this is still a team that is retooling its roster. Keeping with that theme, the Hawks should be hoping for the right deal to present itself for John Collins.

He’s the one player that the Hawks must move on from at this year’s NBA Trade Deadine.

Boston Celtics

Christmas wishlist: A full bill of health 

Let’s be honest, there isn’t much that the Boston Celtics need to be asking for this holiday season. This is like when you have to buy a gift for one of your rich relatives. What do you give the person (or in this case the team) that has everything?

Nevertheless, despite all the talent that the team has, there’s one thing that could derail their championship hopes – injuries. That’s why the Celtics should be hoping for a full bill of health for the remainder of this season.
