Rockets need to make trades. Who could we get?

Pretty much all the PF prospects we would have considered are still there.  Do we try to trade back in?

If we could somehow get Garuba, that would be a coup.


When is the last time the C’s hit on an international player in the draft?

Dino?

So, 32 years ago. Nice. Lol
To be fair, we haven't really drafted many international players outside Yabu, unless you count Olynyk, Kris Joseph and Fab Melo.

Career highlight: 1973-74 championship, Boston Celtics

Career lowlight: traded for a washing machine

Great picks by Thibs. Grimes is going to be a solid pro.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

My fear is that we will persevere until #45 and they will just trade out of the draft lol

* Off topic; can you imagine the puns if the Celtics bring over Yam and re-sign Tacko???

- Yam + Tacko = tasty

- Tacko throws down the jam from Yam

- Yam Tacko, a new Boston treat

- What do you call a Tacko dunk off a Madar lob...a YAM

No way Brad is still awake.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Yup. The Knicks traded into No. 25 to select Quentin Grimes. He will be the Desmond Bane of this coming season.

I was hoping Grimes would fall. NY is smart.

I can't believe I'm hearing something like this now.
