Al Jefferson will be an all-star one day in the near future...other than that Boston didn't lose much. However, putting Danny Ainge and GM of the year in the same sentence is ridiculous...his deal for Ray Allen was mind boggling and he lucked into KG. McHale shot down a deal centered around number 5 and Jefferson predraft...what possessed him to make the move now we may never know.
If this team...and that's a big IF can stay healthy then they can be a force for a couple of year's in the East. They have no future beyond 2-3 years but I like Ainge's win now mentality. He needs to bring in some vet's though...Rondo and Perkins seeing significant minutes isn't a good thing...
The East should be interesting next season with Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Miami and now Boston in the mix...
