at 31 years, he has about 12 years under his belt, and has maybe 3-4 left
maybe flat out "old" is too strong of a word for being 31 in the NBA, but I think "past his prime" would certainly be valid

No you're right, at 31 he is nearly past his prime, which is why I think the trade is kinda one of those all or none deals. They gave up some really good players for him. Like 5 guys and 2 first round picks.
Shit Ray Allen is 33 I believe and Paul Pierce is 30. Honestly in the eastern conference, if they get some good role players since their 56 mil of their cap goes to just those three, I see them in the finals atleast once. Thats way to much firepower to stop if they're healthy.
