Celtics looked into Stoudemire, Boozer trades
This trade also means that Ray Allen gets to remain a Celtic, though the team looked into a wide array of potentially big deals using the veteran guard’s expiring max contract as bait.
A team source said that the Cs looked into acquiring Phoenix forward Amar’e Stoudemire, for instance. Management also looked into possible trades for Utah’s Carlos Boozer, Miami’s Michael Beasley, Philadelphia’s Andre Iguodala and Golden State’s Monta Ellis.
The team also came close to completing a trade with Washington for Caron Butler, before the forward was traded to Dallas.
I hope he gave everything he had into making one of those trades work out. The Celtics needed a change, and I’m not so sure Nate Robinson is what the doctor ordered.

I hear what your saying, but I am super glad we kept Ray and with this as our only real barginning chip, Nate wasn’t the worst outcome and after how the bench looked tonight could be very needed.
What I want to see is KG at 100%, any chance that is gonna happen??
Resting him may help and we clearly aren’t gonna get number 1 in the east, so some easing of the big fella could help come playoffs – your thoughts?
