Boston is aggressively working to move up into the late lottery, if not higher, league sources tell Y!. Celtics own No. 21 and 22 picks.

I think the target is Dwight Howard.

Price tag is a Top 5 and a Top 10. Get the former with Rondo to Kings, get the latter with the draft picks and change.

Apparently the Celtics told MKG that they wanted him at the combine. I'm sure everyone else will think we're making a move for Austin Rivers.

Wow. I love this time of year.

If Kg's done, we take dynamite to this thing.

Only movement tools are Rondo/Pierce/Bradley/the picks.

and future picks. Celtics fans should be ready for anything tonight. This could go many different ways for the Celtics.

I'd love to get MKG. Would be a dream. If we could send Pierce, 21 and 22 for him I'd do it in a heartbeat. Rondo / Bradley / MKG is one hell of a defensive perimeter.

Agreed on both counts. I still believe Pierce could land a pick in the lottery from the right team, although Rondo/Bradley would probably be the best bet.

I think late lottery and high lottery are a major difference. We could be going for late lottery with both of our picks, next year's draft pick, and the Charlotte 2nd. Targeting any higher is going for the nuclear option or an elaborate way of trying to combine Deron/Dwight.

Man oh man I have some news to share but I'm said I would not say anything. But man this is going to be a very good night for the Cs. I ran into someone very close to the Cs when I mean close I mean this person has all the players on his cell phone and also I know he has one of the kids in this draft in his cell phone too. But that is all I'm going to say. But man oh man, Let's Go Celtics!

Also I never post any "source" stuff on here and I'm not going to start. But man oh man I'm giddy today and I'm happy I ran into this person this morning.

Well, from the wiretap CHA has 5 offers for number 2. I could imagine Danny might be responsible for 1 (or more) of those offers.

Look forward to hearing all the updates here first gentlemen.

Nah I'm not going to say anything. I think know that the Cs are really going for something big, and I think we all know that but to actually get some type of solid information from pretty much the horse's mouth. I'm excited for what can go down tonight.

I will share this I don't think KG will be back and the Cs are going making moves as if he will not be back.
