And in all seriousness, I'd cut both of them and go sign Kendrick Perkins for his 6 fouls.  He'll be a better end of bench player than either of these two.

Makes sense to me.

Yeah, Perk has been praised as a huge locker room influence everywhere he's been. I'd take him back as a 15th man.

I would still squeeze a few 2nd rounders or late 1st along with him if possible.

I would like for both of them to be traded for a true end-of-the-rotation player.

Hunter can be that I feel.  Young is more boom or bust in ways.  Hunter might actually do well as the last guy with young out of the picture. I don't know why I think this but just seems like Hunter is versatile enough for that and is a 3 point bomber.  Maybe I have it backwards.

Does this team need another locker room influence? I'd rather roll the dice with someone who could become something more.

Danny is a better Pirate than a treasure hunter


Other words


He is better at stealing others richs than finding his own.



I guess it does not matter how you end up with great players ,  just as long as you do.

I'd say MS, TR, KO and JB is looking like a pretty good harvest for his last four top picks.

That is, I think Danny is both a hunter and gatherer.
I'm with you. Ainge comes out looking like a genius picking Rozier at 16.

Drafting Rozier should definitely quiet the Danny Ainge draft critics for a while.

No, it won't quiet his critics.I"ll admit the Rozier pick turned out great. However, I'm still upset Ainge signed Mickey for 4 years when it was painfully obvious he was undersized.

Selecting Yab at 16. Are you kidding? With a lot of quality players on the board and a need for rebounding I'm sure there are going to be a lot of regrets.

Regarding Mickey, do you understand how non-guaranteed contracts work?  He's not signed for four years.  He signed for two.  The following two years he will only stick around if he shows something.  If he doesn't, he can be cut at zero cost, or even traded as salary filler on draft that the other team can cut at zero cost.

Good point about the Mickey signing. I have to admit my opinion of Mickey is clouded by seeing him up close in his first preseason game. My initial impression was, 'you've got to be kidding, he doesn't have the size to play center.'

This year, Danny drafts Yabusele and I'm thinking, 'we need rebounding and size. Why is he repeating the same mistake.' Yeah, I know...he can shoot and he's strong, young and stashable.
My opinion of Mickey is clouded because I wanted Richaun Holmes who so far seems to be clearly better.

I like Holmes but he has not proven he is better than JM and vice versa.

Too bad Danny took RH , bc we could of picked both JM and Holmes

How could you come to that conclusion? You can't even fairly compare Mickey to any one not overseas. You're going to have to let this romance go at some point, triboy.

I personally am thrilled to see what the 2035 second rounder we receive for these guys turns into.

in a way, i actually agree. heck, 40% of the starting rotation for the celtics are second round picks.  ;D

Shocked that Danny doesn't hit on all his picks.
i don't care when a late 1st like hunter busts.   A borderline lotto pick like young busting is a bit harder to swallow.  But it doesn't sting as much as taking a role player at #6.   Hopefully smart makes a leap.

Whether Smart was a good pick depends on his performance versus Randle.  They were clearly the two best choices.  Personally I would have gone for Randle over Smart because I've never thought Smart had star potential. 

I don't mind the Young miss much unless he goes somewhere else and turns into a serviceable player.  After LaVine was gone, I didn't have a strong preference for that pick but I probably would have chosen Capella.

Honestly, Randle isnt even that good though. Cant shoot, cant defend, has tunnel vision, no right hand. He's not a good basketball player.

That's a reddit thread from yesterday. A lot of Lakers fans dont even really like him that much.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.
