Was the Celtics offer to the Hornets really a "Godfather" offer?

It's been 4 days since the Celtics 2015 draft. After Danny Ainge said he was confident in moving up in the draft and then was not able to Celtics fans were disappointed. When Ainge then surprised draft watchers by picking another guard, Terry Rozier, at #16 (considerably above is predicted spot), fans were livid. Single ticket holders booed at the team's draft party.

Quickly Ainge and the Celtics PR team put out the anger flames by stating that it was the stupid Hornets to blame for the Celtics missing out on Justise Winslow. It "got out" that the Celtics allegedly offered a whopping four 1st rounders to move up in the draft.
