Celtic Nation didn't see this one coming. The talk of the town was whether or not Matt Barnes would come to the Celtics, and if Eddie House would come back to the Celtic dynasty he helped revive with a championship in 2008.
Barnes chose to sign with the Lakers, and House decided to cast his lot in a more upscale locale with the Miami Heat. There were even rumblings that the Celtics might bring Delonte West back if Minnesota decides to buy him out.
The turnover rate the Celtic bench has suffered was a result of Danny Ainge's misses with acquiring a supporting cast for his band of misfit champs.
Ainge has been attempting to repair the second unit since the glory days of 2008, but he has not fared well. As a result, he was forced to bring "The Big Three" back to try and squeeze one more championship out of their aging legs.
