Orlando went after Ibaka, and we went after Horford. I'd say both teams are similar in terms of developing young players while acquiring older players.
If Orlando really wants Isaiah, I'd be interested in Gordon, Vucevic and a first. I could see the Celtics getting 2 of the 3. While I was never a big Gordon fan, he might develop an offensive game, which would make him an intriguing player. In this scenario, they could draft Fultz/Smith, start Smart, Bradley, Brown, Gordon, and Horford next year. That is still a team that makes the playoffs.
Contrary to other people around here, I want them to draft as many talented players as possible. If they hit on a top talent in the 20's or even second round, they will figure out how to work with all of the pieces.
I'm psyched about Yabu and Zizic, and with all of our future picks, it will be ok if neither materialize into a starter for the Celtics. I hope they do something similar for the next couple of years.
