Brown coming in for a second workout. Didn't the C's do that with Smart and Rozier?

And he reportedly cancelled his workout with Minny because his agents thinks he's going 3rd or 4th.

Bender's coming back for a second workout too. Not a fan of a Brown pick myself.

You mean for a first workout. Bender hasn't worked out for us yet. His first and only workout will be this Tuesday, 2 days before the draft. Ainge did watch him during a visit abroad recently though, but that's not a Celtics workout. We couldn't ask him to do stuff for us.

Or unless we trade the pick, or unless Bender's workout with us on Tuesday goes really well

To go one step further -- Bender has only worked out for 2 teams so far (MINN, PHO) and his Suns workout was today

Bender is going to fall fall

Nuggets will prob take him though

Maybe we will hear something regarding the Suns workout? I've given up hope about hearing from Thibs.

I never take what Ford writes seriously


Eddie20 is prob his #1 fanboy

They watched Bender workout against his brother, who played for Maryland. not Maccabi. How much of it, if any, was directed isn't clear.

BTW per NBADraft.net tweet this morning

@NBADraft.net: Following up Valentine knee medical report we 1st reported Mon, considered similar to B.Roy: Cartilage damage in both knees, right is worse.

and

NBADraft.net ‏@nbadraftnet 12h12 hours ago: On the bright side for Valentine: teams are aware of the knee condition and still think there's a good chance he goes in the teens.

Poeltl at 12? How do we get there to get him.

I agree with you if Poeltl is available at 12 the Cs really need to make a push for that deal 16+23 should get them close, maybe add hunter and or 2nd rounds if needed to get it done. While not a high upside type prospect adding a starting caliber 20 year old two way center would be huge for this team long term.

End of the day I expect this draft to net the Cs two players I the first round ( via a trade up) and a huge stock pile of draft and stash from the 2nd
