with more and more draft posts I decided to take a look myself. I went to nbadraft.net and looked around
http://nbadraft.net/2012mock_draft
and here are my initial thoughts for the celtics(using nbadraft.net as a guide)
1st round:
pick 17- PF/C Tyler Zeller (North carolina)
He avereaged 16pts and 9 reb and he is 7ft 250lbs
He is an athletic big with alot of hustle, which can do a lot for the aging celtics
stats from espn:

pick 24- SG John Jenkins(vanderbilt)
Averaged almost 20pts a game and is 6-4 215lbs
Shoots the 3 very well at 44% and could be a nice replacement for ray ray(hope ray stays next year and can teach him).

2nd round:
pick 40: C Robert Sacre(Gonzaga)
11pts and 6 rebounds a game and is 7foot 260lbs
He is a defensive big man who could play a good role for C's
stats:

pick 47: sf Jae Crowder (Marquette)
17 pts 6 rebounds a game and is 6'6" 235lbs
He can score and would fit nicely behind paul pierce(with or without jeff green)
stats:

Notables: I do like austin rivers and think he could compliment ray allen but worry bout locker room atmosphere with father/son relation
-Also i like mason plumlee from duke and might think twice about Fab Melo who might become a true center
these our my NBA first looks, feel free to comment and rip them apart
