But that was luck too. If you ask Ainge what he was expecting to get back on the night he made that trade, he wasn't expecting 20 percent of that return. The Celtics own super fan Bill Simmons hated the deal the night of the draft.

Again, I am not stupid enough to argue the results. But he did not pull the wool over anyone's eyes, as Rachel implies

Right, and it was so lucky it financed a strategy that flew in the face of conventional wisdom smart GMing. When you’re playing with house money you can afford to bet big on a 3 and D wing like Winslow or pass on stars like Butler and George to hold out for even bigger stars.

I’m not taking luck out of the equation, I’m saying he got so lucky he got away with being what many would call stupid.
