Rest Easy I figured out who we are drafting

[KG Living Legend]

 He's one of the most coachable kids I've ever seen. I'm talking Tom Brady type character he would be the leader of the team in three years. He's that type of leader and just one of the most fantastic people you could ever want to be around.

 Ainge must love this kid almost as much as Brad Stevens does you can see both of them liking this kid more than Lonzo ball and apparently even markelle fultz in one of those main factors has to be character coach ability and will to win. that player is De'Aaron Fox.


 Imagine what Ainge and Stevens must have been texting each other the night that fox dropped 39 points on Lonzo ball. And I'm telling you please get a chance to check out this kids interviews and personality, if you don't know him, nicest kid you could ever ask for a dream to coach I promise you that.


 I'm in love with the young man's character. He cried after the tournament loss and I loved it. I'll post videos in a minute.

Yup good post.  I can easily see both Brad and Danny loving Fox. 
In the Philly trade thread that could be the guy at 3.   
Can he play next to IT or would that be
a sign that IT won't stay long? 

[CelticsElite]

Would be a funny turn of events. I wouldn't be against fox.

Not that I'm hating on De'Aaron Fox, but why we would pass on Markelle Fultz would be dumbfounding...

For an extra top 5 pick next year.

It will setup the Celtics to have a team for the future
Smart
Brown
2017
2018-1
2018-2

All while maybe landing a free agent, extending Thomas and rolling out the rookies in 4 years when gsw is done.

 I want to Fultz too. But you should see it at least from Stephens and Danny's perspective, when you talk about creating a culture I don't think there is a better young man to do that with than Fox

Can we agree that if we pick Fox #1 and he ends up worse than Fultz and Jackson that he's a bust even if he plays great defense and is intense?

[KG Living Legend]

 Here he is on ESPN today he predicted 18 points per game seven rebounds per game and five assists per game in his rookie season I think that's funny if he did that it would be amazing.

 Yes Eja we can. I'm sure that's on their minds how he's a great defender though.
