 Looking to get some ideas of either the best defender for the Celtics in this draft or a combo of Defenders.

 It be great if Deyonta Davis was there with the Mavs pick but if not we could add these three stellar defenders to our already stacked Defensive team.

 Kris Dunn Brooklyn nightmare in the passing lanes NBA body and athleticism 6'9" wingspan early in the season he was averaging 4 steals per game.

 Taurean Prince with the Mavs pick could even trade down and get him possibly. Small ball four with his strength and toughness, great motor perfect Crowder Insurance, almost 7' wingspan. Can switch onto most positions

 Brice Johnson Celtics pick of top of the second though I doubt he lasts that long. Not thought of as a Defensive Stud but very solid there great live athletic 6'9" body again can switch onto anyone.

 Three different size tenacious defenders to add to Durant, best defense ever with time.

He gets 1.5 BPG, you bet opposing coaches and players know that.

I say get Deyonte Davis even if it costs us two first round picks(Dallas + Celtics Pick). His versatility on defense and shot blocking would really fit well on our defensive system.

Valentine is a liability on defense.

If Simmons and Ingram are gone when the Celtics draft, Skal Labisssiere, Sabonis and Prince would be a good first round haul.

We don't need to draft any guards until the second round - if then.
