yeah he's done. He's so distraught.

Was Pierce part of the talks earlier this evening? I thought I heard that only KG was earlier in the evening, and he was going to talk to Pierce before leaving Boston?

Must be a major gutshot but he had to expect it. The Celts were always going to unload. Sucks Pierce was part of that but for the trade machine wizard or whatever, he shouldn't be surprised. He plays with crazy moves all day.

Can confirm @ESPNSteinLine report of Griz trading Darrell Arthur/#55 for Kosta Koufos.

Maybe the overwhelming events in Boston have been too much.

The destruction of the Celtics and the NE Patriots receiving troops are more than he can handle.

He'll probably have to make some reference to Ron Howard leaving Happy Days or McLean Stevenson getting killed in MASH.


don't forget the Bruins.

With that trade, the Nuggets get rid of the guy that George Karl was playing over the front offices chosen player in JaVale McGee.

And the Grizzlies get rid of the guy that Lionel Hollins was playing over the front offices chosen player in Ed Davis

Has another team exploded so much in 1 year? Championship winning coach traded for a 2015 draft pick, face of the franchise and KG traded for scrubs. It's really crazy.

Rondo must be going nuts.

Bulls after title #6.

yes, paul pierce was always part of the trade. The Jason Terry throw-in was the shocker that was a last second throw in late today

Do you think the with the Cannan pick that Lin's days as a rocket are numbered?

Thats what it sounds like. Plenty of rumors swirling around that Lin's days are numbered. Guessing Beverley and Canaan would split time.

well they drafted scotty mochado who is a great PG (who was in college) but that 15MM in year 3 for lin might make him untradeable.

but aaron brooks will probably be gone

Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Brook Lopez as your starting 5.

Not too shabby, but it seems like all those guys will be playing 48-60 games because of age/injury.

Machado was an undrafted FA when he joined the Rockets. And he's with Golden State now.

After using Wiki, I'd say this is worse. Jackson's contact expired, Jordan retired and Rodman was a FA. Only Pippen was traded and Wiki says he asked for it.

The Celtics traded their coach and face of the franchise. If the Bulls had traded Jackson and Jordan then it would be similar.

During the lockout the Bulls went from championship to dead last. The Celtics will likely do the same this year.

To help with fill their need for 3 point shooting, the Grizzlies draft a Tony Allen clone in Jamaal Franklin.

It was a KTCK 1310 reference. Not an actual prediction.

Simmons is bringing the gold tonight.

On the Lakers drafting Ryan Kelly: "Wow, now he's the third best player on that team".

after Pierce got shipped, Simmons said "**** it. I'll do it live"

Nets just went into a one year championship or bust mode. If only they had hired a real coach.

Yea if they hired a decent coach they would be dangerous. I think Lawrence Frank is going to be on Kidd's bench so it could be worse.
Bunk Moreland
How long do you want to ignore this user?
that was ridiculous by Simmons.

I only have one more wish after tonight's events...just before the last pick the Nets agree in principle to ship KG and Pierce to the Clippers and they reunite with Doc while avoiding the Celtics-Clippers no trade agreement.

I really like Frank, and Kidd would be lucky to have him. I think the only thing in the way is Frank's wife's health is that right?
