J. Brown now #3 on D.E.  Hasn't dropped below 4 like he has on most other sites.

Here is a nice artlce which sheds light on Brown's personality.

Does such a personality
fit on the Celts?  I think it could.
Question remains about potential though.  (I picture Dunn having the better career).

I really hope we add a quality shooter at 3. I don't want us to pick brown but he has some qualities Ainge has targeted in past drafts, athleticism, ability to guard multiple positions, defense ect.

The way he performed to end the season really left a sour taste in my mouth.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz

We don't need a SF that can't shoot, rather take another guard if that the choice.

I like Jaylen Brown, but I don't think he fits well with the pieces we already have.

For us it looks like:

3 Brown
16 Korkmaz
23 Diallo
31 Malachi Richardson (Maker at 32!)
35 Yabusele
45 Bentil
51 Ibeh
58 Bolomboy

Brown, Jones, Yabusele, Maker all move up if my memory is right.

I'd be pretty upset if we passed on Dragan, and to a lesser extent Buddy/Jamal, for Jaylen Brown.

Hmm.... has draftexpress provided any indication for why the adjustment in rankings?  It seems odd at this point.

people can do what they want and vegetarianism is honorable, ut I don't think it's the right diet for an athlete at that level however.  Red meat is required to support that kind of physical demand, especially over the long term.  Blog nutritionists please correct me if you think protein substitutes for red meat are enough. 

Are there some examples of longterm pro athlete vegetarians who got by on eggs and whey?

You do not need animal based proteins to succeed in sports or any type of fitness.

Prince Fielder has been veg since 08 and Tony Gonzalez was for much of his later career. Arian Foster is the biggest name I also think of.

The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

A 2 second search on google could have answered this for you. Would have saved you from writing this post.

Consider me the CoachBo of distaste for Jaylen Brown
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.

I will not be happy if Danny picks Brown.

This is my worst case scenario for the #3. Won't be happy at all with Brown. Bender/Murray/Hield are all much better options IMO
