Either Jackson or Tatum for me. I'd give the edge to Tatum, but certainly wouldn't be upset with Jackson.

I like both... but only if Tatum can play PF at the next level

Jackson needs to keep working on his jump shot. But is quite the athlete

Brown and Jackson on the wings could be deadly...especially if jump shots are consistent

If we're playing the IF game....the Bulls would own this pick from the Top ONE Protected Trade that sent us Jimmy Butler.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

Phew. I know.

Although this draft is widely considered to be strong, I am excited that we don't have to pick a player not named Fultz. He is the most complete player with a high upside.

I would take BPA if I were Danny. My board would be: Jackson, Tatum, Fox, Ball
The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.

Two much time to kill before the draft I see.

Run a poll on something that can't happen.

I fee like everyone is sleeping on tatum. That kid is a borderline elite scorer from anywhere on the court. Hot take but his scoring ability is actually better than fultz.

Josh Jackson.

Tatum, and I wouldn't be shocked if Ainge takes him at #1

I would be shocked if Danny took Tatum at 1. If he wanted him that much, I'm sure he could trade #1 to Philly so they could get Fultz. I think Tatum can be had at either 3 or 4.

In this scenario, the Celtics should be able to pick up a good young player for moving out of #1.

Maybe, but Ainge tried that with the #3 pick and when people called his bluff he took Brown anyway

Not the same thing at all. Last year's draft was considered a two person draft with 3-8 all interchangeable.

Philly (and many other teams) would kill to have Fultz.
