Reports point to Danny hoping two guys would have been available at #19.  From what we know now he clearly had a man crush on Bradley.

Not that it matters now but who was the other guy Danny liked?

I think either Danny or Doc said that the 2nd man was still available at 19 as well. So I'm thinking it was James Anderson since he was projected to go ahead of us on most mocks (along with Avery) leading Ainge to think that neither of them would be there and considering trading the pick.

Reporters should have pressed him on the issue...I feel like he would've given it up with more prodding.

I think - just speculation from me - that he was interested in Babbitt as well.

Couldn't be Babbitt, because he said they were BOTH still there at 19. probably JA.

  • Rondo = Good
Could have been Damion James since he worked out for us.

Was he bluffing that both were still on the board?

Wonder if maybe it was Eric Bledsoe?

What's the point of bluffing after the draft?

I think it was Jordan Crawford. There were some reports saying that if Danny didn't move the 19th pick, Crawford was his guy. Can't remember who, might have been Chad Ford.

I heard danny or doc say in an interview that it was someone that had an off the court issue that may have caused him to drop more than he should have.

I think it was James Anderson, but Danny probably had concerns about his defense which is known as a liability.
