Jordan and Butler are getting paid a lot too. I understand getting rid of KG and Pierce if a good deal presents itself but how does this particular deal get them back on top again any faster?

KG's stubbornness severely limited Ainge's options. Garnett has a no-trade clause that he refuses to waive unless Pierce AND Doc are going with him and the Clips are the only team that's willing to meet those demands so it's like the Melo to NY situation for us.

:manny: Fair enough. I still think I'd just hold onto them if I was in charge for Boston.

It doesnt the nba is not a league you can get back on top fast it takes most teams years.. with their roster if the deal goes through they can still be prety bad and get a high pick which is what they should be aiming for

The Celtics really aren't that bad with this deal, DeAndre and 2 first rounders, add a healthy Rondo, Avery and Jeff Green, they aren't competing with the Heat, Knicks or Pacers but they are a lower tier playoff team while rebuilding if they actually plan to not tank the season.

We'll see, this deal might not even happen, you know LA will want some assurance that CP3 don't test the market and CP3 might be like :dahell: but this makes resigning better with someone who got skill like KG then someone with crazy athletic ability and no skill like Jordan.

This deal would be horrible. Puts them in Milwaukee land. The worst place in Basketball. If Boston was in the WCF, they would be fine but in the East. :snoop: :to:

You're probably right but theyd be better off hitting rock bottom then being stuck as 7-10 seed
