A day to go and rumors flying all over. If this year is like any other year, 90% of those rumors are false, but it's fun to think about.

So will we or won't we? Curious about that whole "wisdom of crowds" thing.

My vote is that after all the sturm und drang, we stay at #16. Note that, given history of predictions, my vote pretty much guarantees that we won't stay at 16.

I think they'll move up into Charlotte's spot.

Hopefully they'll end up with WCS or Stanley Johnson.

i selected the 6-15 range. i think ainge will work hard to make something happen and he has the resources to do so.

now, WHO will be the first pick by the celtics? my guess is turner, which i would be happy with.

Best outcome imo. What do you think their pick would cost?

My prediction (I'm setting the bar low to cushion the inevitable draft night blow):

16: M. Harrell
28: Traded to Minny for A. Bennett, #31, #36
31: J. Grant
33: RJ. Hunter
36: Traded to Clippers for a future 2nd round pick and cash considerations
45: N. Milutinov (stays overseas)

I think the suggestion made in another post -- Bradley + #16 for Henderson + #9 -- is more or less on the money.
