 We get lucky and get the third pick. Would you trade The Nets pick, Celtics pick, Mavs pick, Philly's pick, plus 4 more second rounders to move up one spot to draft what should be a sure thing or just as an example would you rather have.

 Buddy Hield
 Domantas Sabonis
 Diamond Stone. Move up with Celtics pick.

I probably would.  Boston doesn't need a bunch more mid 1st rounders and certainly doesn't need a bunch of 2nd rounders.

Yes. And it doesn't matter because the other team wouldn't do it.

 You don't know that. It takes one dumb GM. See Brooklyn Nets trade.

 If someone loves Bender as much as the love Ingram, than its a no Brainer.

No brainer compounded by that fact we really don't need that many picks to begin with.

Most likely, yes. 

I certainly wouldn't use that as my starting point for negotiations, though.

The fact that you're getting an avalanche of "absolutely yes" responses is a pretty good evidence of why the team sitting at #2 would never do this.

You say "the entire draft" but really your trade partner isn't gonna care that much about the picks you're offering beyond the Nets pick and the Dallas pick.  You'd probably have to throw in Smart, KO, or Avery to get them interested.
