Assume the Celts draft two players tonigh. Who are YOU (reasonably) hoping for.

My dream draft is Celts walk away with DaRon Holmes and Jonathan Mogbo. Who are you rooting for?.

Finally an American.

Would've been funny if Reed Sheppard is German.

ONe thing we know for sure. Sheppard can SHOOT the crap out of the ball.

High IQ, high fundamentals player.

But think it's a reach..he's 11th on my big board..a reach at 3..

It's too bad we're going to see so little of Brad's work tonight, especially if he trades down.

A lot of teams want Clingan, might be a Spurs trade here

I haven't watched a college game in 15 years but this Sheppard kid is interesting, no?

Reed sheppard with this wholesome, super humble, quiet personality..kind of reminds me of D-White.

Have to give respect to read shepherd for making it as high as number three... And even if he shoots just as well as advertised , i'm still blown Away that he is selected that high.. Not even sure he'll be better than p.P
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Great pick by the Spurs.

Castle to the Kings would've been ideal.

Guess you can say the Kings need a Castle. :lol:

I don't hate the Castle pick, but I would have gone with Dillingham.

Spurs decided to go with defense/size over shooting..

The rest of the draft from pick 5 on will be insanely unpredictable.

Heard detroit might go with Buzelis here though..
