2011 CelticsBlog Draft Board

[Rondo2287]

The Celtics are stoked about their starting 5

Holliday/Gordon/Deng/Monroe/Duncan.

Deron/Monta/Chandler/Jamison/Brand
simpatize with a fast team well anchored
But still consider them waaay superior

PG: We don't need no stinking pointguard
SG: Wes Matthews
SF: Lebron
PF: Paul Millsap
C: Tyson Chandler

We dominate

Roy, thoughts on my team?

It looks very strong to me.  It could use a little more experience and leadership, I think, but the talent is definitely there.  Very dynamic and versatile so far.

scal isnt coming through that door

[Gainesville Celtic]

Jrue Holiday -- he was the other PG i was considering with Jameer. I ultimately decided to go with Jameer's experience and 3pt shooting over Jrue's potential and size.


Kirilenko -- I think questions have to be raised about the other guys AK was playing with that he clashed with (DWill bolted and basically pushed Sloan to retire, Boozer double-crossed a blind guy to sign with Utah, was hurt all the time, then bolted for more money).

We felt we needed a solid defender at the 3 to matchup with Durant/Deng in our conference. He'll help hide any defensive lapses by Nelson/Evans.... Kirilenko has a unique skill set and a unique personality. Welcome aboard AK47!

EDIT: I'd pass to Harpring too if he and AK were open b/c he's a better shooter, not b/c he's in the gym more. I'd want AK to defend a guy more than Harpring too.

I LOVE Deron Williams' game... but that he was willing to go to a lesser team in NJ says something about him IMO.

Question for the Panda's, how many basketballs will be on the floor at one time?

Chandler Loose a Lot not having a p.g.
u better get a good one fast

[The Walker Wiggle]

Chandler was 1 of 3 guys i was looking at here... here's another:

Andrei Kirilenko

The big question for me is, is he going to sign in Europe before the end of voting, and will he have an opt out?

That's your biggest question, but not your only one. I know you could go on for days questioning his game.

I wish you could have talked to GC before he picked him.

Haha.  I'm not a huge AK47 fan, although he's worth a late 4th rounder, probably.  But yes, other reasons I don't like him:  He's mentally weak, he clashes with coaches and teammates (and his owner, I believe), he complains about touches, he broke down crying after a playoff game, and he's always the first guy out of the gym.

And Roy Hobbs isn't gonna let some pesky restraining order or trespassing violation keep him from learning the truth. THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT HOW MEDIOCRE ANDREI KIRELINKO IS!!!

But Roy, that was all  before he got this tattoo:

Min. 2 but 3 would be a safer bet so no choking of teammates happens 5 minutes into the first quarter.  

[celticpride07]

looking to trade 6.7 6.22 for an early 5th and 8th

[Gainesville Celtic]

Wiggle --
do you prefer us to edit our previous team post or make a new one?

[Edgar]

Question for the Panda's, how many basketballs will be on the floor at one time?

the same the Cs had on 2008


and Miami dont because LeBron makes them dissapear like him during 4th quarters of 2011

 

Its called pick your poison

and its deadlier than Lebrotonine

[Evantime34]

Question for the Panda's, how many basketballs will be on the floor at one time?

There won't be any, because that's the only way they will prevent the other team from scoring. zing!

[indeedproceed]

Yeah, whenever you guys are ready to do the adoration of my team, i'm ready.

Ahem...

I'm pretty surprised no ones mentioned this team as one of the better teams out there, maybe if you had a Wilson Chandler type on your team people would be talking about it more.

At least he had a good reason for not practicing.  It takes time to develop a badass Warcraft character, and then to model a full back tattoo after him.

I'd like your team more with a true 3 and Williams coming off the bench as a super-sub 3/4. Great core though, plenty of time to address things as the draft goes on.

But that's just one little bear's opinion.
