Yeah, but somehow I doubt Garnett and Pierce will be retired by then (Or more applicably, that enough will go wrong for the Nets to miss the playoffs next year. I do agree that anything is possible by the time the 2016 and 2018 picks come up, which is why I like the deal. As long as we don't get Plumlee's rights thrown in.)

Olynyk is more than just that guy with long hair — he has size, moves well and has a really good scoring touch. In a league that values efficient scorers, Olynk is that (he shot 65 percent this season). But coming out of a small conference there are questions about how he deals with the size and athleticism he will see in the NBA. There are questions about his defense. They will love him in Boston, let’s see if he can perform at that level.
Why, because he's white and we're racist? This isn't the 1970's anymore.
