I'll say either Winslow or Kristaps. Those two guys seem like they could catch Dannys eye with what they could bring to the team.

Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

I was going to say Anderson, but he is taken, did they work out RJ Hunter?  He would be my next guess, guy can light it up from anywhere with teams game planning against him like he was Steph Curry as he and Harrow were Georgia State's offense.  Can anyone theorize why his 3 point percentage was low?

Bam.



AINGE: That's a pretty good Dream shake.

UPSHAW: Told ya.

AINGE: I don't know if it's worth five dollars, but it's pretty good.


After the Upshaw workout:

ZARREN: We happy?

*AINGE stares down at his notes in wide-eyed wonder and disbelief*

ZARREN: DANNY! We happy?

AINGE: Ohhhh, we happy.

Ainge found his solution to tape delayed presentations of teams' war rooms during the draft: yayo. Now he'll look excited all the time.

Justin Anderson is an DA type.

Kid has the correct work ethic , not a quitter ,  not afraid to work hard , good up bringing .   Solid Celtic type player .    He won't get fat .  Like Smart ...it's 100% full bore or nothing.


The super stud version of Anderson is Winslow .   All the Above with turbo charged leaping ability and LeBron like strength and structure.

So you know Danny is crazy about Winslow .    Winslow is part of some bodies future title team

TP, that is what I was hoping to hear, I think he is the guy that stood out to Danny.

#Celtics president Danny Ainge said it's rare a player truly opens his eyes in pre-draft workout. Asked if it happened this year, said "Yes"


So, let's get the speculation going.  Who opened Danny's eyes, and is this who the Celts will try and move up in the draft to select?

I would have to say Justin Anderson. 

Also remember Danny was not able to attend workouts in the beginning.  But his son and CBS probably gushed about a few guys they worked out.  I'm hoping it was Mickey

Yeah, a player projected for the 2nd rd in a draft that is said to lack depth that's who did it.

Good news for you Eddie20.

Mickey is also working out for the #Celtics for the 2nd time tomorrow. C’s own pick No. 28 in #NBADraft, but could be in mix for No. 16

I'd be okay with him at #45, but not at #28. We'll probably trade the latter pick anyways so the point will be moot.

Wait a minute, who tweeted that? Mickey at #28 is a reach, but at #16 is downright insane. It was either a family member, agent, or Triboy.
