doesn't happen, just seems to be a secondary or tertiary concern.

As far as number 2 goes, what was Ainge supposed to do? Back the brinks truck up for an injured IT? Everyone was already saying how he was playing out of his mind and that wasnt the true Isiah and how he was overrated and would come crashing back to earth even pre injury. Then when he was injured suddenly it was how could you not pay him? Either he is worth the money or he isn't, and he wasn't.

IT overestimated his worth and obviously Boston wasn't going to pay IT what he wanted.
