I know that the Celtic's 16th pick was heavily debated and I know that many fans were not happy. Well the more and more I think about it, what were our other options.

Sam Dekker. Filled a need. Was a lottery talent that slipped to the 16th overall pick. Just watch Vegas Summer League if you want to know why we should have drafted him.
I don't hate Rozier, but there was no fit and I don't believe he was even the best player available.

Rozier looks like he was overlooked by many making their rankings.

Originally, my guy was Bobby Portis.

However, as I look at who was drafted where, Rashad Vaughn would've bee nice.

He was drafted by Milwaukee right after us.

He would've also been a nice pick-up

Then with the 28th pick, we could've drafted Chris McCollough

The Terry Rozier draft pick still boggles my mind!!

We already had Marcus and Isaiah. Makes no sense.

I think we already had a thread on this.  I would've taken Dekker or perhaps James Anderson.

I was pretty dumbfounded with the Rozier pick, and I really wanted Oubre before he went one before us. But the more I watch of Rozier the more I like his game. He has way more upside than a pick like Dekker.

I would have taken Dekker. We'll have to see what Ainge has up his sleeve tho.

Terry Rozier wasn't on my radar going into the draft, but I trust Danny.  So I voted for our guy.

I was hoping for Vaughn on draft night but Rozier has definitely won me over. I like the pick more every day.

Yeah same here. Was bummed when Oubre got picked and didnt care anymore who we drafted. Dekker is good but I think Rozier has a bigger upside.
