Are the Celtics one Domantas Sabonis trade away from dominating the East? We kick things off with a bold mock deal that would send Sabonis to Boston, and debate whether giving up two firsts and key role players is worth it. Could he be the final piece to a championship roster?

Then we take a look at new Celtic Georges Niang and what he brings to this squad heading into his 6th NBA team in 10 years. Can his experience help lead this young core?

Later, we dive into your viewer questions. Should the Celtics tank for Giannis? Is Ben Simmons worth a veteran minimum flyer? And what’s really going on with Hugo González after a shaky Summer League?

Plus, Marcus Smart is a Laker. How will Boston fans react, and can LA revive his career? We close out with a breakdown of Cooper Flagg’s Summer League performance and what it means for his future in Dallas.

All that and more in this episode of Hold My Banner, hosted by Kasey Hudson & Ountae Campbell.
