Boston Celtics NBA Lamar Stevens terminate contract after involving in a argument with the management due to…
At the NBA trade deadline, the Boston Celtics acquired Xavier Tillman from the Memphis Grizzlies, moving them from a team that was clearly out of the running for the playoffs to one that many believe is the favorite to win the championship.
There are a lot of contrasts with this, and Tillman explained them to former NBA player Gilbert Arenas during his interview on Gil’s Arena:
Tillman is loving life on a title contender, even if he will always have affection for Memphis, the only NBA city he knew before the move to Boston. Tillman noted in an interview with Arenas that people in Boston keep things lighthearted and then turn serious when it comes to finishing tasks.
Tillman also discussed what it’s like to play for a club that doesn’t lose a lot. The Grizzlies’ season record is obviously very different from the Celtics’, who have only lost 12 games overall.
Tillman has played for some extremely elite teams, and although this season is undoubtedly unique for the Grizzlies, it’s important to remember that. Memphis would have projected to be in the postseason mix, as they have been the past few seasons, if Ja Morant and other key players hadn’t missed so much time due to injury.
