The draft lottery is about two weeks out. What pick do you predict we land and who do you take with that pick.

I think we get #2 and draft Simmons.

3. Murray

Though, I can see us falling all the way to 6. Small odds of it happening, but then again, what were the odds there would be a 4 way tie in the east? And of course we got screwed over from it. So, my alternate pick, if it make sense, is that we pick 6th.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Haha, that would suck. At 6 who are you going with?

Four is the most likely so I chose that. Cross your fingers for a top 2 pick but just be happy because we are for sure getting a top 6 pick in this draft.

Mark my words, we will get 5 or 6 and the Lakers will MIRACULOUSLY luck into a top-2 pick. League can't have the Celtics land the next transcendent star.

Although, I am praying that does not happen and we get either Simmons or Ingram

I hate to be "that guy", but 5 is actually most likely for us.

I'd try to trade out instead

What would be best for the league would be us and the Fakers getting #1 and #2.

The BBall gods pay us what they owe us this time. We will get number one or number two

We're getting the #1 pick. Brad's bringing the leprechaun to the draft lottery.

Jaylen Brown will be an All Star in the next 5 years.

That's what I think too. Restore the two great franchises to their former glory. And hey, our crappy luck has to wear off at some point, right? Law of averages...

That's the thing with luck - if it were a guarantee, then everybody would win (which is impossible). We have a ~30% chance at 1 or 2, and that sure would be awesome.

I said #2 and Ingram (I don't want to be greedy).

the league had a chance at restoring the Celtics-Lakers rivalry a couple of years ago with Wiggins-Parker. That would've been the perfect time, imo. Instead, we ended up with Smart and they ended up with Randle. Both were good picks but not the things rivalries are made of. So if it didn't happen then, it's not happening now.

Still, i voted #1. I hope we get #1 overall :)
