What went wrong?

They moved to Brooklyn

The Celtics fleeced the ever-loving fuck out of them for rapidly declining players.

Like they were doing any better in Jersey; they did a good job burying the legacy of those Finals teams in the early 2000s
The real answer: Prokorhov was supposed to be the second coming of Abramovich (the Chelsea owner who poured money into them which led to championships); he put that money into crap players like Deron Williams

This, the Nets were basically the NBA's version of Chelsea, but without the league win.
Russian billionaire tried to throw money at a team to make it good, but that doesn't work, especially in the NBA with a salary cap.
Oh well, at least he paid to build a fairly decent concert venue in Brooklyn, easily accessible by subway from Manhattan.
they would have won the playoffs that one year if they gave the ball to Paul Pierce instead of Joe Johnson
I really hope that Brooklyn wins the lottery this year. Watching them have to give the #1 pick to Boston would be hilarious.

Seriously why do people trade with the Celtics. They seem to always win.
How many teams need to get BTFO in trades before they realize this?
