Tomorrow can't get here fast enough. We may end up with the 28h pick and first pick in 2025 and 2026.

I would hate to play poker against Ainge. Ugh, he keeps the entire league guessing. I guess it's good at times but boy it's nerve racking.

Colangelo said that the Celtics have been after the Lakers 2018 pick for A YEAR!!

Wow, they must really love the 2018 draft. That's shocking.

The stupid part is we won't even get the pick. Are people realizing there is about a 30% chance we even get the pick? The odds of a pick being any 4 numbers compared to all other numbers is extremely unlikely....

Deandre Ayton and Michael Porter Jr. next year!

Stupid questions:

Who would you choose:

Deandre  Ayton and Michael Porter Jr.

or

Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons?

Taking injuries into consideration

Marvin Bagley isn't in the draft until 2019, but he would be #1 this year. That's how good he is.

I want to keep the Sacramento pick.

Getting Bagley in 2019 would be franchise changing. He would easily be the top pick this year and next

I can't wait to see the Thomas - Smith Jr. - Bradley - Rozier - Smart lineup take the floor next season.  It'll be epic.  So much heart!

As long as Danny gets picks in 2022 and 2023 to move down to draft another undersized guard then Boston will be fantastic

Why do you think the chance is 30%?

There was a 25 percent chance the Celtics would get the #1 pick this year.  30 percentage chance at a star? I will take it.

When did he say that? Would love to listen/read
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

Like zizic, yabusele, and the recent possibilities such as Jackson, Tatum, and Isaac?

This really is a tired narrative.

Quite the opposite. Fultz was the easy choice, and ainge went the harder way.
