No..looks like he's doing his job as a GM of a team with some potentially good picks.

Or trading for good picks.

Not quite worth starting a thread over but I was kicking around the possibility of trading into the top 5 with our pick + Nets pick/whatever and considering teams that would theoretically be open to that. Charlotte and MJ maybe...

A good GM doing his homework. ---> Must be tanking. Must be trading Rondo.

don't worry, we'll be in the top 5 without trading. unless you think kelly olynyk will lead us to the playoffs.

I think they said there were something like 68 NBA executives at the game.  Every team has at least one person there.

There are upwards of 15 players being considered for the first round at those two games.  You'd be foolish to not be there as an NBA GM.

Interesting, I see no protections on the pick Brooklyn owes to Boston.

So if Atlanta and Brooklyn both end up in the top 3, the lesser of those still goes to Boston, unless there are details not included here:

And if that happens I'll take everyone on Celtics Blog out for ice cream on draft night.

They're both Mormons.  I wonder what will happen if Parker decides to go on a two-year Mormon mission after this season.

I thought it was a joke in reference to Danny being fined  back in 06-07 when he sat next to Durant's mom.

It's a done deal. Sources say that Parker's mission will involve providing humanitarian aid to under-privileged NBA teams from the greater Boston area.

Oh, well.  I just know Ainge has been described as an informal advisor to Parker.
