Lottery Watch

[BringToughnessBack]

I will watch til nobody left but us! Excited again part 2! 3 years, 3 potential top 3 picks...great to be Green! Go Celtics, think 1 and you shall receive.

Does anyone else follow the list of teams from 14 down when they start? I was too nervous to do it last year, not that it mattered with the lottery staying in the same order.

Yes, always. I just have to know if anyone jumped us.

Ive tried to have a reasoned stance on the Celtics odds here. Ive tried to understand that Jackson and Tatum and Ball are great prospects and Ive tried to expect the 3rd or 4th pick.

HOwever, here we are. About an hour and a half from finalized results and I dont want anyone but Fultz.

I dont want Ball, I dont want Tatum, I dont want Jackson, I want Markelle Fultz.

This opinion is ridiculous. Jackson is an elite defender, an elite athlete, an elite passer, and a player with a monstrous bball iq and compete level.

Ball is a genius passer who can shoot threes.

Tatum is the most gifted scorer to come out of the draft since Jabari Parker.

Right now, Im unable to see that. I only want Fultz and any other result will be devestating.

I'm with you, I want Fultz.

I can't help but think Ainge would entertain Ball at #2.  He's too talented.  And I like Jackson, but not on the heels of picking Brown last year.

A little more than an hour away from Game 7 2.0

I have my sheet out and count it down too... but it makes me crazy nervous!

And yes, at this point I really only want Fultz.  I am ashamed to admit that I'll be disappointed if the Celtics don't get the 1st pick.

This is pretty much how I feel. I'll probably be devastated if we don't get a chance at him and don't end up trading the pick.

I want no part of Ball. From what I've seen I think Jackson is a bigger version of Smart, which is great, but not what our young core really needs. And I think Tatum could fit here with our young core, but I question how high his ceiling really is.

Ok I just ran the lotto sim once and it came up Boston/Phoenix/Detroit. I'm good to go. Time for beer

Wow, Bilas has Tatum at number three on his big board.

I do too. Fultz, Ball, Tatum, Jackson. But I'd draft as well as Vivek prob

Fultz, Ball, Tatum, Jackson, and Fox.

Fultz, Jackson, Tatum, Ball

Considering our needs, I probably go Fultz, Tatum, Jackson, Ball. I probably trade the pick if I don't get Fultz, though.

Night, 2 am in Spain. I get up in less than 5 hours to give my first lecture at 8 am.

Isn't it love for the Celtics to be up right now?    Good luck!!!

I'd probably trade down in that case.

Butler is not worth a Top-4 pick + more, and George is a rental. Limited options.

I'd keep if it's #1 or #2, but outside that I'd deal it.
