Trade Analysis

Boston Celtics Perspective

Boston secured the most useful side of the exchange through rights to Kelly Olynyk, while rights to Lucas Nogueira; 2014 second round pick (#34-Cleanthony Early); 2014 second round pick (#47-Russ Smith) produced substantially less lasting value for the counterpart.

Dallas Mavericks Perspective

Dallas surrendered substantially more long-term value than it received. Boston turned Kelly Olynyk into a productive multi-year rotation big, while Dallas's returned draft package did not produce comparable value. The central comparison is draft rights to Lucas Nogueira against draft rights to Kelly Olynyk, with the remaining picks, rights, cash and contract consequences shaping the final margin.
