All Things #1 Pick 2017 Take 2

[DK-All Day]

Ainge is putting his reputation on the line. He is 1000% sure.

Does Fultz stand alone in this draft? I say no. I love this trade.

Fultz never stood alone for me. Ever.

I truly wanted Josh Jackson from the start, that being said, once we got the #1 pick I talked myself into Fultz hard.

However, I'm now fully talking myself into the LAL 2018 1st.

Doncic, Ayton, Bemba? Yes please.

Does the word protection mean anything to you? Those picks are near worthless.

It didn't mean anything to your parents, and you seemed to turn out OK Come on man, relax and let the process play out.

You think the Lakers will be that bad next year?

They will absolutely suck

I never learn. Danny has taught us to never be inlove with a player.

He traded Paul Pierce and KG, he traded Rondo, he could possibly trade IT in the near future.
And now, he traded a player that most of us fell for even before wearing green.

He traded Paul pierce when he was thirty five and washed up, stfu

Chill out dude jeez. Cs fans loved 25 PP just as much as 35 years old PP.

We will give you shumpert for one of those picks. Great deal for both teams.

Hey guys.

Remember when we didn't mind getting smacked by Cleveland because we had Fultz coming in the summer.

Piss off LMAO

Yo, so I heard ya'll like Evan Turner.....

[winsomme2]

some of you guys are nuts on here. Ainge getting the LAL pick to move down 2 spots when he didn't want the guy at #1 is a steal in itself. Anything to do with that SAC pick is a bonus

It's not just two spots. Two spots is 15 to 17.

This is giving up the #1 pick!!

[OFWGKTA]

Wait is it #3, LAL18, Sac19 no protections?????

Why wouldn't they be? They're horrendous. They almost passed the Nets this year. Nothing really changes for them.

I don't mind the trade insofar as we're rebuilding. But...

1) Doing it right now, and not on draft night, doesn't make sense to me.

2) I'd like to see Ainge follow up a move like this with a concerted effort towards rebuilding. Flipping picks for some 2nd tier "win now" player would be very disappointing.

[D1SGRUNTL3D]

Got an alert on my phone from the score which said it's a done deal. Celtics get the 3rd, and oh joy more picks.

Celtics finally get the first pick in the draft and ainge appears to be trading it for more picks. Unreal.

If the guy who called the trade(this years 3rd, the best of Philly and LA next and a 2021 Philly 1st), you have 3 tries to get the 1 and 2 next year in a more top loaded draft. Might work out in the end

Wasn't this a loaded draft with franchise players? And we landed 1. Maybe next year, we will also. Uggg

Eh...Its a deep draft...the jury is out about a superstar in it. Think next year has some more franchise changers but not as deep

[DusterBuster]

As though he didn't already do that when he traded Pierce?....

[shawn unkempt]

The best course of action would have been to draft Fultz and wait for the Warriors to get old. It isn't possible forAinge to build a team that can contend with the Cavs or The Warriors.

This is the logic that makes sense when there's an AD type of prospect in the draft, but there isn't.

Sac has protections

Not really time to joke around. Look at those picks he already has outside of BKN. Top 7 protected. Top 15 protected. Garbage. Complete garbage.

sac pick is protected per WOJ.

[Captain_Caveman]

I'm not reading this as protection only on the Kings pick.

Gtfo, cavs fan, you're not welcome here.

Why so hostile?

Shumpert and IT can be a good pairing and one measly pick is not much to ask. Sac pick preferred

Deal.

Throw in Kyrie too though.
