We pause to consider this moment in Celtics history

With eleven games left in the Celtics season it's worth noting that we're coming up to a long-awaited moment. After the Celtics finish their game with the Heat on April 19, the last of Vin Baker's $8.3M/yr buy-out settlement finally comes off the books. It's been three years that we've been paying the guy to get hammered and doze through team meetings in New York, Houston and now LA. Four years total of paying for what might have been the worst, most inexcusable trade in franchise history are finally coming to an end. Thanks dad, indeed.

This parting ain't sweet sorrow; it's just sweet. And long long overdue.
