    http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-t...-garnett-trade-means-for-the-nets-and-celtics

    As ESPN.com’s Tom Haberstroh noted yesterday, this trade gives the Celtics two first-round picks in four of the five next drafts, including Brooklyn’s unprotected first-round picks in 2016 and 2018. Ainge’s hope here has to be that by then, Brooklyn’s aged and run-down roster has the Nets high in the lottery, and those two picks end up being major pieces for Boston somewhere down the line. Overall, it could be a very nice haul, considering the short list Ainge probably had to deal with because of Garnett’s no-trade clause. Having to take Wallace’s contract — a disastrous three more years at $30 million — is a major loss, but if Boston wanted to completely bottom out, it’s gotten there.

    Spurs and Blazers with 9 game winning streaks (Miami next with 5). Only 2 teams in the NBA with 6 road wins, SA and Port.

    Andre Iguodala pulled hamstring. Looks highly likely to miss tomorrow' game.

    Warriors may be out their 1st, 2nd, and 3rd string PGs tomorrow.

    On normal occasions, I would give my condolences. I hope you're not mad at me!

    I feel bad Rose. Stuff happens. Get fixed up, and ignore the bs. And, if Chicago fans weren't so obnoxious, I'd definitely empathize with them (oden/roy...).

    He might just be overreacting. They're going to do the MRI tomorrow.

    If you're Chicago do you start to consider rebuilding?

    IF it's his ACL it's going to be career altering.

    I hope Rose gets better, but it does not look good.

    With that said, I like seeing people not trolling them about it. We had our own shit, so it's better to empathize.

    Brooklyn is beyond horrible, and I don't even see how they can fix it. I guess they could move Pierce. Johnson is way overpaid. Deron is probably tradeable. What a complete joke that team is.
