I will only freak out if we do not get a top 3 AND the Lakers do. That is the only scenario that will keep me up all night tonight. 


Let's win us a lottery tonight!

Get your popcorn ready then. Ainge should be fired for screwing up this teams future with a draft full of superstars in the making. Only to have the Celtics actually try to play hard and keep scrubs like Bass Hump Bayless and keep a great role player in Rondo.

I see zero superstars in the making in this year's draft. Sorry.

Not worried about it at all.

If the pick falls back that far, we won't make it anyway. It will be traded, as it should be.
Coined the CelticsBlog term, "Euromistake."

These aren't serious posts.  You're going to have to try harder than that, nobody on this board will believe the junk you're posting right now.  It isn't realistic.

And it will be a massive kick in the face when it happens...

#8 pick -  Sacramento
#7 pick - Boston

BAM ... kick right in the face.    When Boston is revealed before the Lakers, it means the Lakers have ended up in the Top 3.  Then you get to watch the next 6 picks revealed while Lakers-fans world-round joyously celebrate  all over the interwebs.

Wiggins Parker Embiid are all possible superstars. Exum might be in that mix too.

we're going to get what we deserve. i'm not tied down to any particular route on what we should do or even care what pick we get. not after '07 - '08, that draft convinced me "anything's possible!!!!"

Ainge screwed the Celtics. We are going to witness that at 8 tonight. Should have followed the Sixers model.

What do you mean?
I suspect he means trade your best player for a rookie who essentially got redshirted.

For the Celtics, that would mean trading Rondo for someone who would not have contributed anything meaningful last season but could develop into a quality player. Not sure who that would have been, but Rondo is a lot better than Holiday so it is a trickier trade to get right.

#6.  Should still land a nice player there.  That was the statistically most likely pick.

i'm thinking he meant trade every player we could and go full on "tank" mode.

I am disappointed we didnt get in the top 3.

But 6 is still a good spot in this draft. It's time for Danny to put on his green cape and do his thing!

  That's ok, there will be another draft full of superstars in the making next year, and the year after that and so on and so on. There will be plenty of over-hyped players in every upcoming draft for you to drool over.
