Kelly Olynyk is the key to the C's next Super Team

Let the record show that I wanted to draft Fultz and play the long game, in fact I even toyed with the idea of trading IT4 for future considerations but I feel like Danny Ainge is forecasting a 2008-like perfect storm. So here's how it happens

Step 1) After a slight overpay for Jimmy Butler Celtics fans are pushed to the brink as we begin looting our local hardware stores for pitchforks and torches calling for the head of one Danny Ainge the man responsible for sending out Jae Crowder, the #3 overall pick, and Avery Bradly in exchange for Jimmy Butler and the honor of losing in the ECF in 6 games instead of 5.

Step 2) Danny the Gambler doubles down on his bluff it appears he's too stubborn to quit, he's not folding until he sees the flop folks, this could get ugly. Danny does what Danny does sending away T-roz, the 2018 nets picks and the 2018 Lakers/2019 kings pick for PG13. Tears are shed ,interests are piqued, torches are put out in exchange for candles of remembrance Thank you Avery and Jae will always be true Celtics in our eyes. With PG13 and Butler we might finally avenge our defeat and beat the Cav's but Ainge has mortgaged the future for the glory of second place. Alas even with Butler and George we still cannot outclass the vaunted Golden State Warriors.....until

step 3) Ainge appears to be finished. With a smug smirk he has added 2 all-stars in their prime to 2nd all-NBA Isaiah Thomas and Al Horford, yes life is good for the green team. But good has never been good enough here in Boston. Ainge signs all of last years draft picks Zizic, Yabu, and Darth Nader and then does the Unthinkable. Resigns Kelly Olynyk to a 2 year $45 MILLION..... WHAT 45 MILLION ?!?!? yes 45 million with the second year non-guaranteed.

Step 4) Not one to rest on his laurels Danny trades KO and Zeller's contract to either the Clippers in a sign and trade for Blake Griffin or to Atlanta for Paul Millsap. For this example we'll say to the clippers in a 3 way deal. Clippers get Carmelo Anthony so that they don't loose Griffin for nothing and to help convince CP3 to stay in LA. We get Blake Griffin in a sign and trade and New York gets 2018 Celtics first round pick, 2019 Clippers first rounder( from us) 2 second rounders, Zeller's contract and KO.

picks remaining: 2019 Grizzles first round pick

Super team construction:

iT4/Smart/D.Jackson

Butler/Smart

PG13/Jaylen Brown/Nader

Blake Griffin (or Millsap) / Yabu

Horford/Zizic

Maybe or Madness? you decide.
