On the plus side, Rozier led the ACC in field goal attempts. On the down side he shot .392/.310/.805 from the field...

Well, Rozier's a Celtic now until he's not. That means we've got to have his back. I'm pegging him as the next great non-lotto bloomer.

Never draft for need in the draft. You draft for talent. Louisville has been a top NCAA team for a couple years with Rozier being their best player. Great athlete, excellent defender, very slippery getting into the paint, little AI to his offensive game (with the questionable shooting to go with the crossover dribble).

Rozier is a good pick, a bit of a reach, but you have to get your guys in the draft. That's all that counts.

The Colton Iverson era has begun

I sincerely doubt the Celtics make any major trades. I'm not sure why so many are confident on here someone will be traded.

Too late, I'm already there.

Rozier is going to be the next Paul George.

I've been told by some people on the internet that there is NO difference between the guy you can get at #9 (Winslow) and the guy you get at #16 (Rozier). Just focus on that last playoff spot.

You would throw away an entire season for Justice Winslow?

Lawson just said he's going to Sac.

Lawson
Mclemore
Gay
Cousins
WCS

.. Vlade has some damage control to do asap and probably slap Karl upside his head .. But that team is looking nice enough to keep Cousins next season.

lol That's messed up but I can't help but think this solves the whole "are you born that way or is it a choice?" question. Nothing wrong with that though. Do your thing, little dude.

At least the board is hilarious right now.

I do not mind the pick but someone needs to be moved to make minutes to play.

RHJ at 28?

Katz could be wrong about us keeping the pick.. It makes no sense, especially when we were linked to Portis... And Portis is still sliding..?

And yet - very clearly, the Celtics didn't get their guy, despite desperate attempts to move up.

Is this a joke? 39.2 and 31 from the college 3. Can he even play?

So many picks...oh wow we get to fill out the roster with marginal talent and pass on free agents because of roster room! Yay! Now I would normally say get some draft and stash guy's but zero chance Danny actually does that.

No way. That would be way too good of a pick.

If enough people are interested I could start a suicide pact thread. We can merge if there already Is one.

I guess he isn't horrible, ranks behind Russell and tyus as third best freshman pg but we don't really need him and he won't be better than smart or Thomas
