SPIN HARD


This dude got ROCKED.

Hate what happened tonight, but LOL @ him masturbating with his own tears right now.


I'm totally with you on this. Rough night. But it's funny to watch someone spin so hard.

Next step: free agent season when all the stars in the NBA line up to play for the Celtics team that played Toronto so tough in March.

Portis and Looney were two I wanted at 16, C's might have shot at Looney at 28.

Pretty much the only enjoyable part of the night. A very dim spot of light in our veil

I was wrong they could trade up.

Don't think I, and all the draft experts out there, are wrong in saying that there is a TON of talent in the mid to late first.

Speaking of, my guy Jarell just got snatched by Memphis. Gets to learn from Z-Bo. Great pick by Memphis.

Minnesota grabbing Jones is huge too. Love what Minnesota is doing with Flip Saunders out there.

I'm not even upset at the Rozier pick, more upset that we couldn't get Winslow. At 16 I really didn't like anyone that much, Portis/RHJ were interesting but no1 was the clear guy to take.

Yeah. When Winslow dropped to No. 9 and the trading up rumor was swirling, I had my hopes up.

Celtics could have forfeited all their draft picks and you would still be looking on the bright side.

How many minutes had Pressey when there were no injuries? They threw him in a few times okay.

He looks like a Spurs type of pick. Hope he lasts, he's next up for me now that Martin is gone.

Curious if we take a guy who will be on our roster at 28.No way 33 and 45 will make roster this year.

I'm okay with it too. The guy I actually wanted was Anderson, and that too, would have been regarded as a reach.

It's not spin to say, the Celtics can draft up, and if not, they can find talent in the mid to late first. Not when that's EXACTLY what I've been saying all season long.

It'd be spin if I wasn't high on the mid-first, late first talent. That was never the case.

Of course it would've been great to move up... but ultimately I still think the Celtics can find productive players who can make this team better.
