It hurts, but celtics get a huge kickstart to their rebuilding..afterwards they would attempt to move allen to another contender to pick up an additonal asset, but would be going into the 2012 offseason with Rondo, 5 first round picks (including their own which would be in the lottery), bird rights to j. green, ryan anderson and bass (he will prob opt out), along with their currently underwhelming crop of youngsters in bradley, moore and johnson..anderson is a nice fit for a rondo led team due to his ability to stretch the floor and open up the driving lane.. in the offseason of 2013, the celtics would look to trade the then expiring turk contract along with other assets for a star... people should not be so quick to renounce this type of rebuilding since 1) you have to spend almost to the cap no matter what and 2) there aren't any good free agents this summer minus howard and wiliams who we aren't getting.. the contracts of wally and ratliff allowed us to be able to get allen and garnett in the first place..
