  • We may as well put Tyrion in at center.
I thought Bradley was going to develop into a capable, 5 apg point guard.
I like Marcus Smart

I have to go back to Gerald Green and Ron Mercer.  I thought both were going to stars.  Those were my biggest misses.  Now I just hope I am wrong about KG being done.

I thought Gerald Green would be as good as T-Mac.
I wanted Marcus Williams over that Rondo kid from Kentucky who couldn't shoot.
I thought Telfair was going to be great for us.

I was scared of the Lakers this season, along with a lot of Celticsblog Forum.

I thought Acie Earl and Gerald Green were going to be steals.

I hated the Delonte West and Glen Davis picks.

I thought Danny did the right thing letting Tony Allen leave.

I didn't think Danny should have traded Antoine Walker.

I thought Brandan Wright and Corey Brewer would be difference makers.

I liked the JuJuan Johnson pick.

I thought Bill Walker was going to be a quality player.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
I was a huge fan of the Bill Walker pick.  I still don't understand why he didn't work out.

I would've picked Oden over Durant, and no amount of revisionist history will make me reconsider this.

Amare Stoudemire, Andrew Bogut.

I didn't think Rondo would continue to get better.

I didn't think Jeff Green could ever elevate his game to the level he is at now. I still think he's overrated if people think he'll continue to improve.

Edit: also Michael Beasley, Yi Jianlian.

I bought into Avery Bradley as a quality NBA starter.  His disappointing lack of competitiveness for almost all of the playoffs has me questioning whether he has the mental makeup to be a consistently good starter.

Surprised more people didn't mention this one, I think Oden was pretty much the consensus #1 at the time.

I thought the Celtics shouldn't have dancers.




It's given me some nice background pictures for my computer over the last few years.
Peace through Tyranny

Me too.

I thought there was no need to trade for KG. Pierce, Allen and Big Al was good enough for me...
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.
