Great picks and inspired choices. James Young and trading for Kyrie not so much.

Which is the entire point. Celtics have had better injury luck, had a better trade, a better FO, and still have been a cute story in a shitty Eastern conference for years, despite all the Boston media hype. Basically an east coast Blazers even after the "most lopsided trade in history."

This isnt a videogame. And I'm not even arguing that Griffin is really good. Rather even the best GMs, who pull off the best trades, have misses and are at the mercy of bad luck even when they think they made the right decision. Playing the woulda, coulda, shoulda game with every move is a recipe for driving yourself insane
