Dont think so...but if he so

i want BJMullens to backup perk

I think Danny's first round pick for this year is the last pick in the draft from last year, Semih Erden (6 11/240).  He's averaging about 7PPG and 4RPG.  He has played on two National Championship teams in Turkey.  He's only 23.  Look for him to be brought over this year as his contract with Fenerbahce Ulker is up.

Odds are good. Danny has an edge over other gm's in the draft and uses it to find some steals every year.

And with the 58th pick in the 2009 NBA draft, the Celtics select....
Jon Brockman, University of Washington.

Low.  This is a weak draft class, and the Cs already have 3 rookie-like players to develop (Pruitt, Giddens, Walker).

I'd like to see the Celtics do something to grab Tyler Smith from Tennessee - he's projected to drop into the early second round if he declares.  He oozes heart, he's mature, extremely athletic, and can play the 3 or 4 well on defense - something we needed badly this year.  I think he'd be a candidate to really surprise some people in the NBA.  He's always been more of a pass-first player, so he won't be coming in looking to prove himself on the scoreboard.  I think he could really help this team out sooner rather than later, and if his ballhandling and shooting come around, then we could have a steal.  Before last year, a lot of people compared him to Josh Howard minus the part about being a headcase.  In the short term, I don't see how he could be any worse than Mbah a Moute.  In the long term, I don't think he'll ever be the franchise player that Rondo likely will be and Billy has a long shot at being, but I could see him being as good or better than Posey.
