Anyway, my point was more that the way Garnett and Pierce left is also terrible, but I'd be shocked if either got booed by Boston fans. Which I think is funny, because it's at least as disrespectful. They were both under contract to stay in Boston. Garnett had to waive a no-trade clause to go ring-chasing. He chose to abandon a sinking ship, and fans are mad at Allen for doing the same just because he recognized it earlier. It's actually not so bad with Pierce since they were shopping him for awhile. He actually is entitled to be a little peeved.
Still can't get over how crazy that trade was. If Boston's a sinking ship...what the heck is Brooklyn? The Titanic just waiting to hit that iceberg? Gutted the team of assets, and have an old team with maybe a one (two at best?) year window to contend, assuming they can overachieve and be better than Miami, Chicago and Indiana...for starters.
