It makes me sick to think the C's can, AGAIN, get another elite prospect thanks to that Nets trade (He has them getting Bagley @ 2). I really hope Brooklyn shocks people and fights for a playoff spot.
To make it worse, they get the Lakers pick (the one we traded for Knight) if it falls between 2 and 5, so they could end up with like Bagley AND Doncic or something.
I hope they don't get two top 5 picks. That would be salt in the wounds.
It's another reason for us to tank this year IMO. Not only the salt in the wounds aspect, but the fact that if we're able to successfully rebuild into contenders, it's the Celtics and Sixers we're going to be facing in the finals in the 2020s. If Boston gets two more top-5 picks they're going to be such a powerhouse. If enough bad teams push the Lakers and Nets out of the top 5-6, Boston becomes a lot less scary, especially if the Laker pick doesn't convey at all.
