I think that as soon as Pitt's Sam Young wasn't selected in the first round Danny should've been on the phone buying an early second round pick to get him.  The cost wouldnt've been too high, heck we even could've thrown TA in the deal.  Young is 24 and absolutely ready to play in the NBA right now, I think he would've been a steal and a great back up to Paul.


Edit: He did go after Memphis's pick at 36, so I guess he didn't fall asleep as much as he just wasn't able to make the move he wanted.  That makes me feel better.  Still would've loved to see Young on the roster though.
"Take this down," said O'Neal. "My name is Shaquille O'Neal and Paul Pierce is the (expletive) truth. Quote me on that and don't take nothing out. I knew he could play, but I didn't know he could play like this. Paul Pierce is the truth."
