JJ Redick on the Boston Celtics trading for Jrue Holiday

The Boston Celtics have picked up former Milwaukee Bucks point guard Jrue Holiday, and former NBAer and host of the “Old Man and the 3” podcast JJ Redick could not be more impressed by the trade.

Redick discusses the recent acquisition of Holiday by Boston and its impact on the team’s defense, versatility, and playoff potential. He also touches on the Celtics’ rebounding strength and potential matchups in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Redick praised both Holiday and Derrick White, emphasizing their excellence in various defensive metrics. The potential of disrupting opponents’ pick-and-roll and dribble handoffs with these two excited him, especially in a playoff matchup scenario.
