Sully could be a top 12 pf... not a top 3
bradley could be a top 12 sg... not a top 3
olynyc could be a top 12.... something
i am not judging smart and young yet... it is too early
these guys are our hope????
could a team with centerpieces tony allen, perkins an powe win a championship?
We must lower our expectations.. the rebuilding has just begun.
they would be nice next to pierce rondo and kevin
they cannot lead a team to playoff success even with the east being so bad
personally i would gamble
We need to find stars
first you find one and then you bring in help
we have some good pieces for a contenter
trade bradley and sully
We must find our wiggins our parker our lillard our giannis first
someone who is a true leader
we are in danger to stay in the middle..

Top 12, really?   Are you 12?

Could be does not win games, being good wins games.

I would not get attached to guys, remember how Big Al was our future?   He was not he was an asset that we turned into better players who we won a title with.
 
I think given what we have seen that we need more athletic front court guys.  Maybe, heck will freeze over and one of them will blossom.  I hope we take the best player available in the draft with our first pick and then take by need with the others.  Gamble some on with the later picks.

Never understood the "don't get attached/fall in love with player" argument. Why can't we like who we have? I'm sure everyone in OKC is ready to ship Durant out for the next big thing or Curry in GS or Duncan.

Why can't we like Sully, KO, Bradley, Smart, etc.? I love watching them play but 1. I'd obviously trade them for a better player and 2. None of us are Danny so why does our opinion matter? It doesn't. If we only talked about elite players this wouldn't be Celticsblog, it'd just be Western Conference plus Lebron blog.
The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.
