To this point in the draft The Boston Celtics have selected Terry Rozier, RJ Hunter and Jordan Mickey, and Marcus Thorton.

Response around these parts has largely fallen somewhere between, annoyed discontentment too sky is falling lunacy. You would think we didn't just end up with an elite athlete, one of the top 3 shooters in the draft, and a stout rim protector.

The rumors were particularly strong this year prompting many to assume a massive trade was a inevitable, but while the haul might seem unspectacular, I personally believe that we got 3 strong future rotation players each has an established game and an elite NBA skill.

If any of the newest Celtics or anyone they know are reading this trying to gauge fan reactions, just wanted to say welcome to Boston.  8)

I think Ainge is smarter than anyone on this board and the celtics cleaned up. They got about as good a run as they could of really solid players.

Trader Danny didn't trade anyone lol and we still have a ton of picks and players too!  We just selected Thornton as well.
