Boston has been wheeling and dealing all offseaosn long, trading for Marcus Thornton and signing Evan Turner. The Celtics also traded away Keith Bogans to the Cleveland Cavaliers and have now worked again with a Central Division team in the Detroit Pistons.

Anthony was acquired during the middle of last season when the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics got together with the Golden State Warriors on a three-team trade. With Anthony now in Detroit, the Pistons have a big man to throw into their lineup and add depth in a frontcourt that needs to improve this season.
