Help Arrives in Boston

 In 2007 one of the nba's best franchise the Boston Celtics had a hard season going on a 18 losing streak the longest losing streak in franchise history. At this time Paul Pirece just came back from the hospital from a brutal attack in a bar. After ending up last place in the eastern confrence the celtics found themselves at home watching all the other team play for a championship. During the off season Doc Rivers the head coach of the celtics had lots of work to do to put up the franchise where it used to be and with the 5th pick in the nba draft hopes of grabing a good rookie was low. In a risky move the celtics traded players with two other teams for two players. First from the Minnesota Timber Wolves the celtics traded 5 players for 10 time NBA All Star Kevin Garnett. And To Seattle the Celtics traded two players and their 5th draft pick for the 3 point sniper Ray Allen. Paul Pierce was looking for help and he got it. In the 2008 season boston came from last place in the east to World Champions by deafeating the Los Angeles Lakers in 6 games.
