CLAB 21: Taking stock of the new roster, and Boston’s TPE options

This episode, we take stock of the 2020-21 Celtics roster to date, and daydream about our ideal TPE targets for the Celtics.

The Gordon Hayward era of the Boston Celtics has officially come to a close, with the biggest traded-player exception (TPE) in NBA history going to the Celtics, and the Butler product to the Charlotte Hornets.

With that move comes several others to spruce up the roster, such as the signings of big man Tristan Thompson and point guard Jeff Teague, two new rookies in Aaron Nesmith and Payton Pritchard, and some familiar faces coming back on new deals.

Join Cameron Tabatabaie of Celtics Hub, Alex Goldberg of Off the Glass and Justin Quinn of Celtics Wire as we get our bearings on the roster for the coming season.

And stay for the discussion of how Boston might choose to make use of its TPE, what limitations it has, and how we feel about former Celtics stepping into the ring or onto the team’s coaching staff with Nate Robinson and Evan Turner making their way back into Boston’s offseason news cycle.
