Perhaps it was rash of Danny Ainge to ship Daniel Theis off the Boston Celtics for the sake of avoiding an awkward contract negotiation standoff in the offseason. At this point, the deal is looking like a massive mistake for the Cs front office.

The idea behind it was a solid one: trade away one expiring contract for two. Ainge overlooked the issue of acquiring guys that had never been more than reserves in Luke Kornet and the already-released Moritz Wagner and not bringing in a solid hand veteran instead.
