as a celtics supporter i don't mind this trade. We should've bargained for davis' brain in the trade as well though. Mihm can do the same as battie in the centre, and is showing that he can improve more than battie. Stewart is an honest hard working role player which we need. overall, we got more scoring and should be a winner if davis isn't the idiot that he has shown in the past.

Please ricky, please!

Ironic that Ainge traded away 'Toine because of his apparent bad attitude and selfishness, then proceeds to trade for a lesser player with a worse attitude, and a genuine selfish streak.

Danny Ainge should be working for Chicago.

Davis and Pierce - I don't see it working.

The Celtics traded a very good role player in Eric Williams too.

So now I gotta follow the Celtic's games instead of the Cavs? Bum.

Why should he be working for Chicago?I quite like what we got...

Paxson has done everything weve needed... sacked BC, traded distractions and traded for defensive role players. He also drafted Kirk Hinrich.. whos a sensational young unselfish point guard that is also an amazing defender.

Its hard to win games when you have so many injuries...

Look at the team for detroit tomorrow

Hinrich/Brunson
Crawford/
Gill/L Johnson / C Jeffries
JYD/Fizer
Davis

Thats right 9 of them are not injured, and 3 of them would be on the injury list if we had a full roster

Chandler (Back) - mid to late january
Robinson (Ankle) - day to day
Blount (something) - saturday
Curry (Knee) - 2 to 4 weeks
Williams (Knee and pelvis) - seasons
Pippen (Knee) - 6 weeks

And its a miracle we have won the past 2

Williams was gone before the season started, Pippen and Robinson are bit players, Blount is Blount.

I'll give you Curry and Chandler, but the rest merely test the depth, they don't greatly impoact on results.

Have a look at the players you've lost over the past 3-4 years mate.

They could pass for an All-Star starting lineup right now.

The line up of

Miller
Brand
Artest
Mercer
Insert scrub here

Were a shocking line up because they were such a slow team..... we would get absolutely destroyed by run and gun teams, plus the fact we were tanking while trying to play the triangle didnt help.

I think the above team won a good 15-20 games.. I try to forget our records post-jordan

I liked the Brand for Chandler trade.. I mean before Chandler got hurt today he was going for 13pts 18 boards. And Brand and Curry couldnt play together because both do the same thing.. need to be in the post to be effective and always close to the basket.. see Kandi and Brand last season. Atleast Chandler has amazing D, is long and his jumpshot is coming around. He is also fast enough to run around and defend outside the key unlike Brand and Curry.

The only thing I am upset about is losing Ron Artest. We got majorly smashed in that trade... losing Brad Miller was a blow but atleast we got Curry who may 1 day be better than Miller.. but Artest is amazing, if I described how much I rated him as an nba player i'd be here all night.

It was a panic move by Krause to please Jerry Reinsdorf. The team progressed for about 5 games before we were **** again after that trade..
