They traded for the draft pick on the condition that Leonard was still on the board.  ;)
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Correct.  A rookie who did not have close to the value he has now. 



Could they have made that trade today?

Oh, right. No, certainly not.

But, to follow up on the latest Durant scandal, I don't think Leonard is any better than, say, Paul George. Part of the reason I'm so hesitant to part with any of the Brooklyn picks (which was my point) is that I'm fairly confident one of them will turn out to be more important to future Celtics titles than Kevin Love.

Flip is just posturing... GS will not give up Klay and no one else can compete with with a high pick plus Sullinger, just to start.. In the end the market will go down a bit and if the Celtics give up more than 3 firsts and Sullinger, and expiring contract then its a flop for the Celtics...

I can see the 6th and 17th plus the Clippers pick next year with Sully and Bogans.. not a dime more

plus if you still have enough go after Noah.. couple more first and Olynck

I don't want the Celtics to include those picks as well.

But both picks this year?  Sure

The Clipper pick?  Yes

Future Boston picks.  Yep.


The Philly pick.  Yes.



Just don't send out more then three picks.

Agreed on all counts.
