Could Ainge see him as a 6'10 wing...like Porzingis.

He would look good next to Horford.

He's long, can rebound and is a shot blocker. He can shoot the 3 but can't had the ball like KD. Runs the court well.

Ainge could shock us all.

You may have a point with his size and ability. The way the league is going he could be a poor man's KD.

Could be the surprise pick @ 3. You can really tell how mature he is based on his interviews, kinda remind me of Jaylen.

I was actually thinking about posting the same thing last night lol. 

There's definitely a chance he picks Isaac.  While I'm not 100% sold on the guy, he is 6'11" with a long wingspan, can defend the paint (which NO-ONE on this Celtics roster can), and hit's Free Throws at a 78% clip... pretty darn good for a big man.

If DA is enamoured, might as well move the #3 for #5 and #10 (if possible), as its 95% likely that Isaac will be there still at #5.

Highest upside of the bunch for sure.

I'd be pretty happy taking him at #3, but feels like we could get him at #5

Isaac isn't working out for anyone who has a pick below 4 and has worked out for the suns twice.

Isaac is our pick.  That's why we made the deal and aren't worried about the lakers at all.

Jonathan Isaac is your next Boston Celtic.

Don't see Isaac as a top 5 pick. Doubt he ends up a Celtic

If The Celtics don't trade the pick, Isaac is a swing for the fences type of pick and he can defend so he'll get time right away. I could see this being the pick.

I actually think the pick might be between Tatum and Isaac....

If we pick Issac then I am curious to hear how everyone feels about the importance of being drafted to the right situation?  Issac's frame and length immediately scream Kevin Durant 2.0 but he obviously lacks the polished skill set that Durant had in college.  If they like Issac then I am guessing he possesses similar work ethic and drive that Jaylen Brown has shown.  At this point it ultimately boils down to Brad Stevens' ability to develop Issac within a winning organization.  How much of an impact does everyone believe that a coach can have on a raw prospect with monstrous upside?
