Lol...I think what makes the LEAST sense is how hellbent you are on the Celtics...the CELTICS..."rebuilding" so quickly and suddenly making an impact in not only the Eastern conference, but the whole league.

"Oh, we're just rebuilding." I've been hearing that ever since Paul Pierce first got on the team, and then when Walker left, and also when WALLY joined the team.....oh WALLY.....It's going to take more than ANY lottery pick in this or any upcoming draft to save the Celtics. Don't get me wrong, the Bulls took a LONG time to rebuild, BUT, muahaha, they finally did, and are already in the playoffs...

As for Oden declaring, I'm sure he will. They always do. It'd be smart on his part if he stuck around for the full 4 years, but when all that cash is right around the corner, who can blame him. ~
