2009 Celticsblog Draft: Draft Thread

I think if Bargnani ever tried to D perk up we'd finally see the Beast smile.

If he ever got the ball.

Trust me if he had Bargnani on him, Rondo, Ray, Pierce and KG would all get him the ball.  

Doc would come out of retirement to get him the ball

Just curious KC, if your team played the real Celtics, who guards Pierce and who guards Ray?

Rudy guards Pierce and Diaw chases Ray around screens, using his strength to fight over screens. I live with Bargs on KG because there's no better solution.

 

Bargnani on KG?

Diaw on Ray?

Hope no team in our league has a very good pf and shooting 2 guard

I meant to write Lopez on KG. Bargs is a good help defender. And I think you're overreacting about Diaw on Ray. Especially with the way Ray functions in the offense.

So Bargnani on Perk? 

DIAW is a 3/4 he can not play the two, he wouldn't be able to chase ray through screens, if he faced up Ray, Ray would go right by him. Please pick a two guard, Diaw can not play the two I am begging you!

He can absolutely guard Ray the way the Celtics play Ray. Even then you switch Rudy on Ray. OR even better, play a zone.

What would you play a 3/2? with Bargnani coming over to block help,  except he doesn't block shots. I am not trying to attack your team I love Diaw, but he's not a two.

I don't mind Diaw guarding a 2 who plays with the ball out of his hands. THis team is all about match ups. Our offensive line-up is set with Diaw at the 3, but sdefensively we'll mix and match our man to man, but play a 3-2. By the way, Bargs blocked 1.2 per game shots last year.

I'm fine with changing for match ups, I apologize Bargnani is a good weak side defender for blocking shots, he's just not someone you want guarding a good 4 in the post. So does this mean you aren't drafting another two?

I'm in BPA mode.

Well then I hope for your sake the best player available is a shooting guard ;-)

In need of an SG and SF, the Cavs select a versatile player who can fill both roles, and should be rejuvenated in his new environment.

The Cavaliers select Mike Miller, and hope his 29 year old body isn't prematurely breaking down on him.

Plus, the man rocks a headband like few others can.

I like the pick.  Solid 2/3.  Has a nice shot.

Next pick for sale. We are happy to take a veteran shooter with the next pick, but are entertaining offers.

Yep.  We were at least investigating him.  His biggest problem last season was lack of shots.

[Donoghus]

Good value pick there for the mid-5th round.

I would make an offer, but I still have 8 guys on my next pick list.
