You don't want to know the crazy trade down ideas in my mind.  If Lakers select Jackson, trade down a spot to phoenix for Ball.  Then down one with SAC so they can draft Fox.  We'll get 5 and 10.  So then down 1 so Orlando can draft Tatum.  Then down 3 so Dallas can draft Ntilikina.  Now we're at 9 and 10 -- we don't want both.  I hear the Lakers want another late lotto, so let's trade #9 for #28 and something in the future.  Maybe we can draft Markinnen at #10, and ship off #28 for something in 2023.

Haha.  This is great, and only you could come with it.  The draft is so deep that multiple trade downs could actually be reasonable, and I don't ever remember that being the case. 

If you had to guess, what do you think happens with the pick?

If I had to guess, I'd say we take Jackson.  Both Russell and Clarkson have surfaced in a lot of rumors, and the logical conclusion is that one will be superfluous after Thursday night.

Danny trades the #3, BRK '18 and LAL '18 for #2.

He selects Dwayne Bacon, because who doesn't love bacon?

50% of CB still recites "in Danny we trust".

For #2 ???

He should use them to get the 2017 #1 back from Philly.  8)

Brilliant idea TP. Imagine getting a #1 pick!!

Lol.  Love that this was bumped.  Hope that today is an eventful / extra stupid day in Celtics history.

We know Danny thinks outside the box. This year he's thinking outside the planet.
Rumors are flying that he's eyeing Naismith Trophy Winner Kelsey Plum from Washington.

The Celtics need scoring and she broke the women's all time and single season NCAA scoring records.

If that doesn't work out. Then, I doubt very much he's thinking Jackson or Tatum...most likely he'll select Jonathan Isaac.
