Yep. Has to be.

Even if it's a simple trade down with Phoenix or Sacramento where we get Tatum and an additional asset (please be Skal!), Danny has to do that. That's completely in line with his overbearing love for assets.

it BETTER be Jackson.

I hope we get Jackson when teams like the Spurs are even after him he'll I trust their scouting dept more than ours. You take Jackson kid has the most potential.

Now no one should be too hard on Jackson on missing the workout unless 'promise to be picked'

Look at all of these rumors regarding the number 3

Everybody wants him, including those he didn't work out with.  :laugh:

Jackson has more upside..better motor..better athlete

Tatum is a better basketball player skill wise but does not have the ceiling Jackson has.

I disagree. I think Tatum could be an elite scorer. I really don't see Jackson being more than Iguodala on offense, even if his development goes well.

I haven't seen nearly enough of either player to have an informed opinion, and even if I did, I'm happy to admit that Ainge and his staff knows more about evaluating players than I do. So if Ainge selects Jackson, I'll trust his evaluation. From what I've heard about both players, though, I'd go with Tatum all day over Jackson. Long, athletic players that can defend and are offensively limited are much easier to find in the draft - or free agency - every year than players who have Tatum's length and scoring ability. Tatum also appears to blow Jackson out of the water when it comes to character.

It will be tatum and it will be a miss.   Ainge's streak of drafting one all star continues.

I think Jackson is the hotter name right now. I think his athleticism makes people think about Kawhi. Some of these guys are calling him a superstar.

If Danny wants Taytum, I think he should try to trade into #4 or #5.

care to support this assertion and explain why tatum will miss? aside from attributing it to a general dislike of ainge of course.

I'd rather have the skilled guy. To many athletes that can't play, not saying Jackson will fail.

i fully expect him to trade down again and take Smith ,because I never would.

he does exactly the opposite of ANytHInG I would do .....always

So Id took Fultz, then Jackson , then Tatum   Issac .....or traded the pick for a star.....Zinger , PG ,ect.

He'll Do NONE of the above. ...he ll do some off the wall ...trade ...get another KO, JJJ, Sully , Fab Melo ......blow th deal......when its sooooo easy to do the correct thing.
