Many good points were made in those 4 pages.
Like Crimson said, there are 3 main plans for championship :
1. Draft
2. Free Agency
3. Trades
Now, depending of who you are as a franchise, your priority might change.
Let's say for the Lakers, their priority would be 2. 3. & 1. Obviously they are the first choice for most of the free agents. They only have to work on putting a desirable roster to attract better talents.
Now for the Celtics, number 2 is not our priority obviously. I don't think the owners will appreciate that Danny tank hard for 3 years. In fact I suspect Wyc told him not to tank purposely, because of the tickets sales. So the Trades is Boston's main plan.
It appears that trades is Danny Ainge's best ability (he's arguably the best in nba at that).
And I'm surprised he managed to make Draft his plan B while maintaining full flexibility and make TD garden happy to buy tickets.
I honestly don't think we have a better plan than what Danny is doing right now, which is going after a cornerstone guy, not average star that will put Boston in mediocrity and stuck for years with the money fully committed.
Yes, it's very tempting to go after Harris, Monroe, etc. But it doesn't make you a serious contender and he kills your flexibility to acquire a superstar.
The next time a Harden or a Cousins is available via trade, high chance is ours.
In a mean time, you get to enjoy a great team chemistry that fight really hard. And that's all I'm asking from this franchise.
