Woj: C's deciding between Tatum/Jackson if they keep the pick

[CelticsElite]

I think this is important to know.

1. Danny hasn't decided who he wants yet according to woj.
2. The interesting kicker is woj statement is "if they keep the pick."
3. The other interesting thing is its between these 2 "if Lonzo Ball goes No. 2 to LA". Ball may be presumed to be an option if he falls. Fox doesn't seem to be an option.

If they keep the pick he is taking Tatum. The only way he does not take Tatum if he is available is if he decides to trade the pick. IMO

If Lonzo Ball is available at #3, he'd best take him over Tatum. Obvious talent in Ball, but gonna have to put up with Lavar's nonsense and the league targetting Lonzo Ball's back all year long.

Guaranteed they are taking Josh Jackson.

If Jackson goes at #2 to Lakers then I wouldn't be shocked if we trade #3 to Phoenix for #4 and extra and probably take Tatum.

Trade it for PG13. The Pacers are spiralling out of control and will press the rest button.
Yes there is a risk of losing him in a yr but once he is here..we may be able to sway him to stay. If we take down the Cavs which we will..PG will stay believe me.

Guarantee that they're trading it






(if Ball is there because someone will want to trade up for him).

[celticinorlando]

Keep the pick you take Tatum. Too many red flags with Jackson

[Beat LA]

Barf.

F it, let's deal for 5. At this point, why not?

[jakeopp]

Really hoping it's neither. Can't see either one as a star player in this league. Prefer Jackson to Tatum though. Smith would be my preference. Definitely not Monk/Lauri/Fox. Could see it being Isaac although I don't think he's a star talent either...

Yup 3, 37 and 57 for 5 and 10. In Bill, Danny trust.

[Chief Macho]

I don't believe this entirely.  Danny knows Jackson might not be there.   So if he's in love with a player it's probably a guy he's almost positive that will be there.   Tatum or Isaac.

I hate to say it, but if Fultz and Jackson are gone then draft Lonzo.

Isaac is the pick , his upside is better than Jackson or Tatum
