NBA Draft Recap: Danny Ainge Expresses His Desire to be Fired ASAP
How does a Celtics fan feel about the events of last night ...

I honestly thought the worst thing that could have happened on Draft Day would be the Celtics drafting Joakim Noah. But Danny Ainge was his usual self, and found a way to somehow do even worse.

 The C's traded the #5 pick(Jeff Green), as well as Delonte West and Wally Szczerbiak to the Sonics, for 32-year old Ray Allen and both of his surgically repaired ankles, as well as the Sonics 2nd rounder (#35).

I'm not sure where this is supposed to leave the Celtics, but they certainly are FARTHER from a championship than they were a week ago. Pierce and Allen might be fun to watch for a little while, but they still have a LONG way to go before they reach respectability.

The worst part of all this: "Boston really pursued this. What started as a smaller conversation became fulfilled. Their pursuit was impeccable," said new Sonics' general manager Sam Presti

Good to know that Danny Ainge isn't just retarded...he's aggressively, impeccably and proactively retarded.

We can all agree that ex-players don't always make good coaches or GM's.  In that case, take up fly fishing to pass the time in retirement.  That's what my dad does.

Seems like Paxson is doing ok so far. And Steve Kerr looks to be doing alright so far too. Maybe ex-Bulls are just better GM's than ex-Celtics. I guess Red Auerbach just made it look way too easy...

This is what happens when you bend over backwards for an All-Star that is being paid franchise money.  Celtics should've just picked, and let Pierce go.  Instead they were just set another 5-8 years back.

at least for the next few seasons Allen, Pierce and Jefferson will make some noise in the playoffs but I doubt they pass the 2nd round. Look at the bright side... he coulda done worse and traded Green and/or Jefferson as well...
