One thing that I have learned with the Celtics picking towards the top of the draft, is to trust Danny and ignore the so called draft experts. I remember watching those preseason games against Philadelphia recently and feeling bad for Simmons and Fultz. Simmons may be one of the worst shooters that I have ever seen, which seems almost impossible coming from a consensus number 1 pick that isn't a center. I joined celticsblog because I wanted to ask why everyone was so infatuated with Fultz, because I didn't think he was worthy of being a lottery pick, never mind an overall #1 pick. That "Fultz" trade to Philadelphia looks like a heist already for Danny.
I find it funny how there were draft prospects refusing to workout for the Celtics because they wanted to start and get playing time. The Celtics opening lineup to start the season tonight includes 3 all stars and the #3 pick from last years draft (Brown) and the #3 pick from this past draft (Tatum). And the Celtics are still a top 2 favorite to win the conference.
