Monroe is overpaid and Zizic is a legit center who can score and defend.  This was a great draft by Danny.  He pulled off a lot of moves that were really difficult to find. I think he nailed every pick. The 2nd round and our pick at 16 was just as impressive.

Reading all these articles like the celtics underwhelmed is absurd to me.  What danny did is much more difficult than  people think. 

The media hypes up these overrated guys and Danny just went down the line and killed it. It's their own fault they are underwhelmed.

I honestly think this is the most well researched best draft I've seen by an nba team. Guerschon is awesome. Just watching highlights on these guys and they can all play.  They are all major sleepers.

I think Sully, Zeller and Turner are gone.  Not sure who else.   We may make a trade with some of our vets as well.

These draft picks are too good not to keep.

The front office is going to come out of t his draft looking either very smart or very stupid.

The fans, however, can only come out with an egg on their face. Remember how New York booed Porzingis last season? Now he's part of their "new big three".

Zizic and Guerschon i don't know if we will stash.

Jerebko and probably either/both of Turner and Amir are probably gone. So is Sully.

I love this pick
And also thought ainge was selecting zizic at 23
Zizic just needs to polish his post up game
He has the physical tools and rebounding ability to be a good centre
If he doesn't become a starter he would at least be the backup energiser big because of his motor and energy he brings

I'm with you. I wanted Bender over Brown, but Brown was #2 for me. 6'7''-6'8'' long, athletic, strong athletes who can get to the rim (71 of his 372 shots this year were unassisted makes at the rim) are not common. Brown also showed the ability to pull up (29 unassisted 2s). He had a ridiculous ft rate of 57%. Most of all, he impacts the defensive side of the ball.

I wanted French Milsap, but later in the draft. Danny must have liked him to grab him at 16, and there must have been a chance he'd be taken later (Pistons?). Picking him ahead of Ellenson was interesting, but I can see how he might have more upside.

It seemed like Zizic was destined to be taken by us too.

I like Jackson a lot, but we have no room for him. Bentil is versatile, but seems more like a D-leaguer. Nader too.

This roster is still crazy. We could end up with our entire bench being filled with rookie contracts.

I like the idea of Smart, Brown, and Crowder on defense.

Yes these guys are Going to be Rookies, not expecting them to Catapult us over the Cavs this year.. but We added Tools that we Don't have in our bag without repeating what we drafted last year..

Toughness inside and Rebounding especially when We go small..Shot Blocking and A defensive Athletic Wing who plays above the Rim (should be able to get to the Line)

All the while leaving room for RJ or Young (I know I know) to attempt again to be our 3 pt specialist and Rozier can still develop as Bradley's eventual replacement.

Perfect Drafting..

Turner and Sully Definitely gone along with Zeller..

I think Sully we might keep. But I think Turner and Zeller are gone.  We still need sully's rebounding unless we sign someone else.  Guerschon may be a stash.  Zizic i think will play immediately and take Zellers spot.

Brown should take Turners spot.  Marcus should also be more of a pg next year where we don't need Turner.
