If the Celtics blow it up, the Celtics will get worse, and thus since they are barely a playoff team right now, will in fact end up in the lottery. In fact, if the right trades are made, the team could be so bad it is guaranteed a top ten pick, in what is most likely the deepest draft in years. If the Celtics then pick up a few more firsts, they could possibly move up in the draft, or trade them and utilize the cap space to get other players.
Also, if the Celtics don't blow it up, what is exactly the plan to avoid the team from going into rebuilding next year. The draft picks will be worse, the cap room isn't going to land a major star, so the team will be mediocre or bad next year, but won't have utilized the expiring contracts to pick up more assets.
Shhh, you make way too much sense. Don´t you know we don´t like to talk about elephants on this site, even if they fill the whole garden?
Instead, we should all just cheer for our team, while we await the return of our saviour, Rajon Rondo, the man around whom we will build our next contender. You know, the same guy Ainge wanted to trade before the season.
If we all just believe hard enough, it won´t matter that this team lost Jeff Green for the season, and didn´t get significantly better compared to last year, where we lost in the second round 4-1, only because the saviour was injured.
After all, this is war, and you don´t undermine the morale of the troops with petty doubts about the meaning of it all. Instead, we will do everything to deflect blame from the heroes we worship, as we learned on ESPN, and blame Ainge for not doing enough when it all goes down the drain. The least we owe guys like Pierce and Garnett, aside from a combined $37 M this year, is some loyalty.
