Watching WCS workout and coaches comments, this guy really does have All-Star potential and does seem to have a good stroke and the mobility and athleticism is insane for a 7'1 guy , the only question is possibly work ethic by scouts comments but would not mind parting with players and picks to draft up for this guy.

Some people are saying Booker is overrated, I still say this kid can be a legit future star. The problem that WCS eluded to earlier with Kentucky is that him and Booker have to play to a system and are restricted with what they can show...this also goes for Booker, the kid also seems very intelligent and hard working, these are qualities i've never seen in young (who has their own logo before you play a professional game)

Both these guy look great, I think looking back this will be the 'sleeper draft' where lots of gems are found mid first, second and even undrafted

Honestly I would be happy with booker at 16. We need a 2 guard that is athletic and can shoot and I think he can be good. This would depend on his interview with Danny and coach and their feel for his work ethic. Honestly I think he has more potential than young. I wouldn't mind a backcourt of Booker and Smart for a few years. I think they could develop into something very good. Sign a couple of FA bigs and I think we look a lot better for next year.

Yes exactly, I know Danny is looking to make a blockbuster trade but I miss the old Celtics under Red where we drafted our stars

I think danny will try to make 2 moves at the draft... i think players like johnson and turner are the targets.. and then take at least one good free agent... monroe or alldridge

Isn't this why they draft Young last year, at 17.  Personally, I'm not ready to give up on him. He's still 19 and developing.
