Danny Ainge is the best GM in the NBA

[Shade8780]

Trades an old KG and Pierce to the Nets for a bunch of future lottery picks, keeps our star player in Rondo and still gets the Celtics a chance at a top 4 pick and picks up two steals in past Drafts in Sully and Olynyk, who's been averaging 17 PPG and 7 RPG this month.

How great is our gawd?

Greatest NBA franchise ever

Definitely a shrewd MoFo.....would probably trade is own mother for the sake of the team.

lakers got that, not a fan, but if you discard 50s/60s titles when the league was in its infancy you see the lakers show much more consistency in winning or getting to the finals.

lol, the only decade the celtics didn't win a finals was the same the lakers didn't either
also consider that like 5 out of their titles belong in minneapolis

"consistency"

Ainge is the man. He owned the fukc out of that Nets trade. Dont forget he also got Humphries' expirer and a big trade exception. Big thanks to the Russian Mafia, they pay well.

Edit: Bogans expirer as well.

Very impressed with him keeping Green and drafting Olynyk. Those are pieces of a future team. Olynyk has it in him to be a really really high level player in the future. He's more athletic than he was initially given credit for, and he does the fundamentals on defense he just needs a little more strength.

Ya. Anyway. Yay for Ainge. Celtics have a bright future.

[JohnnySic]

Rondo, Sully, and Olynyk are good start. Green can be a part of the picture too.

Gonna add someone good in the draft, and they should have some money to spend...

nope, sorry. Over a third of the lakers titles were in Minny. Celtics have the best dynasty and the most overall titles (and all in one city). I hate to say it, but they are the most successful/best NBA franchise.

[Derka]

To be determined. He needs to have a good summer before I'm on board with this. He has goofed on a few things, specifically in his love affair with Jeff Green.

But compared to some other GMs? Shit, Danny's unquestionably in the upper echelon.

Yet the Lakers at least got into the Finals that decade.

Also, would you agree that:

80s: Lakers >> Celtics
90s: Lakers > Celtics
2000-2010: Lakers >>>>> Celtics

?

1. Pop/Buford
2. Riley
3. Aigne
4. Morey
5. Bird
6. Ujiri
7. Presti
8. ?

How is Presti, who grew his team from the bottom, a worse GM than Morey, Bird (who I'm almost certain isn't the GM) or Ujiri?

Presti's molded team has been to a NBA Finals already, what the **** have the Rockets or Nuggets done
