We already have 3 likely 2016 1sts.  We don't need another.  Some are projecting the 2016 draft to be weak.  I don't think it will be that bad but it'll be weaker than this draft.  I'd be happy if Oubre fell to us.  I'd also be looking at Lyles and Looney.

I also don't mind using our 17 pick to drop down in the draft
As there is still some value at the bottom of the first round and at the top of the 2nd round

If it means swapping first rounders plus gaining another 1st pick from a desperate team 

While guys like oubre, looney and lyles (and the rest of the propects projected in the lottery)  are ok
They have some glaring ? marks that would make me think twice about drafting them

The Celtics are a team with more depth than pretty much anyone and an excess of future draft picks. They should be trading up or trading for an established player not trading down.

Exactly. The Celts have a team of subs. A star is needed or at least a decent  young big and an above average scoring wing

That's not really how the NBA works.  It's rare to see teams "trade down" and exchange a current 1st round pick for a future 1st round pick.  The value of the current pick is set while the value of the future pick is variable.  Typically that makes it a lopsided deal one way or another.

Deals like that happen in the NFL because 1st round picks can make a big contribution in year 1 or 2.  That's pretty uncommon in the NBA.

C's already have the possibility of having 4 first rounders next year.  we don't need another one.  we still have a load of second rounders next year as well. 

Either trade up, trade for a good established player or make the pick at #16.  trading down for more picks is pointless considering how many picks we already have
