What do recent trades mean for the Boston Celtics outlook in the NBA’s Eastern Conference? With the Indiana Pacers having dealt for Pascal Siakam, the New York Knicks for OG Anunoby and the Miami Heat for Terry Rozier, it is clear that the rest of the East sees the Celtics as a team they need to get better to have a shot against.

Are they right about their assessment of the East? Are those three clubs done making moves? Could others like the Philadelphia 76ers end up joining them in this trade market arms race? And what about the Celtics — should they stand pat, or does the roster still need some tweaking to have Boston well-positioned for the postseason?

The hosts of the WEEI “Slammed: A Boston Celtics podcast” show recently convened to talk it over; check out the clip below to hear their thoughts.
