Playing GM: What should the Celtics do?

Blow it up It may be unfair to use 'blow it up' as a blanket term -- what they end up doing will probably be somewhere in between -- but the Celtics could chose to move more than one player from the group of Rondo, Garnett, Pierce, and Allen. They could move two or more of them and try to load up on draft picks, hoping one of those picks turns into a star. They could do so even if it means missing the playoffs this season if they feel they're going to get better more quickly this way.
