Danny has never been a Euro-shash guy. As far as I can remember, Erden was his only try at it. We all know how that turned out.
It seems that Danny prefers to use his second rounders on 3d & 4th year college players. He's had mixed results there, but did land 3 solid NBA players, E'Twaun, BBD, and Gomes.
IMO, there is far more upside in Euro-stash players than in 3d/4th year college players.
This is complete hindsight. However, what if since the 07/08 Championship, instead of using second round draft picks on the Gabe Pruitts and Lester Hudsons of the world, the Celtic stock piled Euro players. Perhaps one or two of the them would be ready to put the green on or just be completing their rookie season.
The future would look a little brighter if the Cs had Shved, De Colo, Mirotic, Singler, etc... walking through that door.
