Wouldn't it be cool if somehow....maybe almost by mistake or other complication that Ainge didn't pick:
A streaky combo guard
A guy that has to marinate in Turkey for two years
A guy we really haven't heard of
or trade a late first this year for a late first next year
And, even though it is virtually impossible...could he pick two big guys and maybe, just to make up for all the calamity of the last few years, one of them was good enough to start and be like...pretty good and not get hurt all the time?
I know, I know we need a streaky combo guard this year, so he'll fill a need and the Yugoslavian Basketball Federation needs an 18 year old whose rights belong to Boston and the Red Claws need a 6'8" tweener who'll have 24 point nights once in awhile before he ends up in China....I got that, but, maybe there'll be too much traffic and the cell will act up and the assistant Celtics draft coordinator (CDC) will miss hear the name of the guy and all of us here will see the guy they draft and go whhhhaaaat?!
And Stevens will be blackmailed into letting him play and he'll average 14 rebounds and 11 points a game and he'll dunk on Davis and Giannis will fake an ankle to skip games against him and NBA centers will secretly fly to Boston in the off season to train with him because the "streaky combo guard" switch didn't get flipped just this once.
