I know its only a small scale but DA has never drafted (kept pick) in the top 10 since he has been with the Celtics.. pick 5 Green who was traded for Allen and pick 7 Foye who was traded for Telfair & co.... It further makes me believe he will trade this years #6... Love will get the first shot then next best option

Remember that if the Ray Allen trade doesn't happen in 2007, it's pretty well-established that Danny was going to select Yi, not Jeff Green.

Because Ainge rarely lies pre-draft?

This was talked about a fair amount after the fact, too.

Im not sure he would have taken YI... I honestly think he doesnt like the pressure of a high pick and I agree if these players dont resemble a sure thing then why not trade it for a sure thing..

First He always stays in win now rather than rebuild, second he knows how to extract the maximum value in a pick

Ill be shocked if the pick is not traded..
