Posted by djsunyc:Posted by martin:Posted by islesfan: I see one move here. MLE for Banks. And ownership probably forced the Rondo + Sergio give away. Boris and Barbosa have decent deals although Boris may be overpaid a tad. Why was Banks signed? What was he known for? Official sponsor of the PURE KNICKS LOVE Program

Posted by djsunyc:Posted by martin:Posted by islesfan: And that's just as the GM. He had plenty of input as the head coach. If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

Posted by martin:Posted by islesfan:Posted by martin:Posted by djsunyc:Posted by martin:Posted by islesfan: Offense, offense and became more about offense than defense. It's ridiculous to give D'Antonio credit for acquiring Banks when as the head coach he didn't bother to use him. If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

Posted by bitty41:In 2003 he traded away Antoine Walker who was a huge piece to a playoff team that went to the ECF the yr prior to him becoming GM First of all of them are facts and 2 of the 6 cited references were actual transactions that took place. I couldn't make them up if I wanted to but for you Princess I'll give a little teaser on one of the other cold hard facts of Ainge's aggresiveness... http://www.boston.com/sports/basketball/celtics/articles/2008/06/05/moment_of_truth/?page=5 The Celtics tried to trade Pierce for Chris Paul the night of the 2005 NBA draft, but could not close the deal. http://www.boston.com/sports/basketb..._green/?page=2(must be registered to view link to boston.com) The Boston Celtics very nearly dealt Paul Pierce to the Portland TrailBlazers in 2005 in exchange for the number three overall pick. Several other players would have been included in order to make it work financially.
