So what now?

We could trade the pick and at least one of our young guys for veterans to try to help Paul out... Or we could trade Paul... Or we could just pick up one of the Florida guys or the Chinese kid and piss Paul off completely...

Choices, choices, choices!

This group is about more than just missing out on the 38.7% chance we had of landing Greg Oden or Kevin Durant. It's a group for the young generation of Boston Celtics fans who missed out completely on the glory years for the organization.

We've all heard the Celtics used to be real good and all that, but we sure wouldn't know firsthand! The fifth pick is just another chapter in the overwhelmingly pathetic story of the past twenty years.

We've seen the Pats win three Super Bowls, and we've even seen the Sox win the World Series - but we've never seen the C's put up a single banner.

Boo.

(Dino Radja was alright, though.)

That, of course, was a FaceBook group I created late last May following the NBA Draft Lottery. And after the Celtics upped their record to a gaudy 29-3 last night by going into Detroit and beating the white-hot Pistons on their home turf, it felt like a good time to look back at this and think about how much things have changed over the past several months - and how improbable such change appeared to be at one point.

Change is good! Change is possible! Vote for Obama!
