This is a little less exciting than last year, when the Celts had three first rounders, but we're running it back anyway.

Let's see who can predict the 16th and 45th pick correctly.  And yes, the Celtics obviously don't own the 16th pick anymore.

Scoring:  3 points for correctly projecting a player to the Celtics; 2 bonus points for getting the draft slot correct.

Trades:  1 point for correctly projecting a pick will be traded; 2 points if you predict the team the pick goes to; 1 bonus point for each additional asset you predict..

Prizes:  The winner gets 200 TPs and a moniker on their account until next draft labeling them “CelticsStrong’s Draft Guru”

Runner up gets 100 TPs.

If there is a tie, all co-winners get 200 TPs.  The tie-breaker for the “Draft Guru” title will be whoever predicts the total number of trades *on draft day*.

Other Rules:  “Nobody” doesn’t get any points.  No edited submissions.

Deadline:  Draft time

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

by the way, when i win can i have a few more benefits added on top of “CelticsStrong’s Draft Guru”??

maybe like, everyone has to call me "Sir God." Oh, and they have to genuflect and bow whenever they read my posts.

would that be okay??  ;D
