What if the Celtics get the number 4 pick in the draft?

The celtics need a young pf to replace amir johnson.So, if the celtics  got the 4th pick in hte draft would you trade the pick to the pacers for myles turner?

[CELTICSofBOSTON]

I don't even think the Pacers would consider that.

Myles Turner is a very good young player.  I personally wouldn't take Jonathan Issac at number 4, but he is an option there if Danny and his team decided the Celtics needed a PF.

I say take best player available, hopefully Jayson Tatum.

The Pacers don't do it even with another future first (except the Nets 2018, which I won't discuss).

NO

Turner does not help this team move over the hump

He wasn't enough impact to help Indiana even win one game vs the Cavs

Turner is valued over the number 4 pick-unless Lorenzo Ball drops-which is unlikely.
Isaac will not help the Celtics immediately, Tatum is a safer pick. Jackson would be a steal at 4.
Phones will be ringing through the first 6 picks.

You're much more likely to use the 4th pick for George than Turner, who would be close to untouchable for them.

But I do think that we should seriously consider trading the pick if we don't get a shot at Fultz. I want no part of Ball, and I don't think Jackson is really the direction we should be going in. I could be talked into Tatum, but I'd price a George or Butler trade first.

Would people do George for Crowder, Rozier, and the 4th pick, assuming both Fultz and Tatum are off the board? Then you could trade Bradley for someone like Faried, which would leave you with the following lineup:

PG: IT, Smart
SG: Brown, ? (maybe Green resigned at the minimum)
SF: George, Yabu
PF: Faried, KO (resigned)
C: Horford, Zizic

You're right, they wouldn't. They probably wouldn't trade Turner for a #2 pick. Maybe #1 but even that I kind of doubt.

Turner is 7 months older than Jaylen Brown. This season he averaged 14 points, 7 rebounds, 2 blocks, and shot .348 from 3. He has the potential to be a foundational player. The kind you can only hope you get with a #1 pick. He's not getting traded for a draft pick.

In a heartbeat.

[NHCelticsFan]

I don't think Indy would do that trade, in fact I think they would be more likely to trade George in a package that includes the fourth pick so they can build around Turner and that pick.

Statistically it is the most likely pick for us, so we could find out soon enough!

[Emmette Bryant]

Isn't George going to be a free agent soon and heading to the Lakers?

edit:  sorry I didn't read the question well imagine that

Trade down and take Zach Collins of Gonzaga

not as a 1 year rental.   if there's a S&T deal or he signs an extension with the C's then yes

[Tr1boy]

yes!  Zach Collins reminds me of PJ Brown.   Not the biggest guy, but long, athletic, good IQ. Can shoot , do a bit of everything.   Knows how to use length, decent run jump athlete.   A competitor

[max215]

I don't think Myles Turner is available, and his fit with Al is questionable at best. Ultimately, this pick is not for this team. We take BPA and build for the future.
