Is the Marcus Thorton & 2nd for Isaiah a better deal than the Nets picks?

I was talking about this with my friend.

We all know the nets deal is one of the worst of all time. We've already gotten Brown, and are gonna hopefully get two more top picks, including a potential #1 this year. The celtics know how much this can help their team, how deep it can make it, and how talented as well.

But, back to the now. We see the team nearing 10 games over .500, being led by a 5'9 superstar (allen iverson's lefty reincarnation), who we traded for half a year of an aging shooter and what turned out to be a traded pick.

Depending on how long IT keeps his play up for (in terms of seasons), this deal could potentially be more fruitful than the Nets picks. What do you guys think? Which trade was better? Too early to tell?
