The Celtics are having a clearance. Everything old must go. Veterans were priced to move and so they did. One power broker had no problem purchasing pre-owned pros.
Days after the Celtics were left to operate without Doc, GM Danny Ainge decided to dissect the team himself (forgetting to administer anesthesia to the fans), amputating an appendage in Paul Pierce who's been a primary part of Boston for 15 years . Truth is, we thought "The Truth," who ranks first in three-pointers made, second in scoring and third in games played on the organization's all-time list, would get to retire having had one home. Instead, he was evicted, along with Kevin Garnett and Jason Terry; meaning there are three new rental properties in Brooklyn.
Unlike the inhabitants of his borough, Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov is not a thrift shopper. He bought two big ticket items, including "The Big Ticket." The 69th wealthiest man in the world according to Forbes isn't bargain hunting - he's hunting for a championship. Spending c-notes on a couple of C's will be worth it if they win it all.
