Danny Ainge is like the fantasy basketball GM that offers all his garbage players for the other teams best player. I cannot believe Kevin McHale was dumb enough to accept the deal.
It is quite simple. Kevin Garnett is a franchise player, one of the best players in the league. Al Jefferson is a good young player but he probably will never approach KG status. As good as Jefferson was last year, he led the Celtics to 22 wins in the weak East. Let us also see him average a double-double in the western conference.
Sebastian Telfair actually is quite a below-average PG who brings nothing but untapped potential. The Celtics would probably be better off just signing a veteran like Troy Hudson, Earl Boykins, or Brevin Knight.
Ryan Gomes' role on the team will be replaced by Glen Davis. Davis can't shoot but the Celtics do not need any more scorers.
Gerald Green like Telfair was quite mediocre last year. He has loads of potential but I don't see him being a star in his league. He is a scorer and he had no role with the Celtics given that they have three prolific scorers on their roster.
Basically the T-Wolves traded KG for one good player and crap. Last year they declined a deal from the Bulls for Tyson Chandler, Luol Deng, and the #2 Pick (either Aldridge or Roy)
