The bottom line is that this team works. They have it all: Chemistry. Talent. Veteran talent. Young talent. Defensive prowess. Offensive spark.

What was missing in the playoffs was quite clear: Kevin Garnett. Yet Danny Ainge, the same genius GM that brought Ray Allen and Garnett to the team in the first place,  wants to deal Rajon Rando and Allen to the highest bidder.

Why? Sure, Allen is going to be 34 but he can still shoot the lights out in any building and has at least one more good year left in him. And Rando has improved to become one of the top point guards in the league. Combine that with team chemistry and a healthy Garnett and you’ve got the makings of another championship team.

Trades should come on the outskirts, with the shuffling of role players and not on the inside where the core of the team is already in place.

I don’t get it. But maybe that’s why I’m not a GM. Maybe Ainge sees something that I don’t see. But I think that if Allen and Rondo get traded, we won’t see another NBA Championship in Boston any time soon.
