Considering there is a picture of the wrong Marcus Thornton in their profile I am pretty sure even Draftexpress is a little unsure who this guy is.

My brain... it's... I don't... this is...

I'm out of my depth. I think I'm going to go for a run and look at the pretty scenery. The cranium needs a rest.

Last I checked we didn't trade Sully yet

Draft and stash for MT2?

"@KevinOConnorNBA: Marcus Thornton is an interesting pick to say the least. He must be willing to draft-and-stash, like Colton Iverson did two years ago."

Sixes and celts in some sort of weird dance . Gotta believe sixers and celts will make a deal

Honest question: I get that Upshaw has attitude problems, but what really made the teams raise red flags on him?

Post #1587 » by **Darth Celtic** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:48 am

sixers with another center. Can't make that up either.

Smart for Embiid trade incoming????

Ainge and Hinkie had a side bet.

"I bet you'll stop taking centers before we stop taking guards."
"You're on."

Terrible note to end a draft on.

We are selecting guards, 76s bigs...
Something just have to happen.

Imho Bradley is out, Young is not good enough and may never be so that's why we get guards.
Maybe we have a center secured in a different way or we will have someone from 76s

They are going to try out that old hypothetical, who wins between a team of all guards vs a team of all centers.

What are the chances of Smart being traded this summer?

lon3lytoaster · Post #1593 » by **lon3lytoaster** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:49 am

Bet we sign Ellis

Red2 · Post #1594 » by **Red2** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:49 am

We draft only guards and the celts draft only centers

Is Christian Wood still on the board?

Avalanche · Post #1596 » by **Avalanche** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 3:50 am

I love Smart but a Noel trade is starting to become a little obvious

Thunder get a serviceable big man in Johnson, should've been our man IMO

Coke and heart issues were some of the rumors.

He's going to get left in the dust soon enough. That's what happens when you adhere to outdated modes of thinking and you can't understand what is happening with Stevens and the Celtics becaude you're hung up on "stars".

The Celtics are still strongly positioned to add impact players in trades and free agency over the next two seasons. But be prepared to deal with a lot of ignorance from limited thinkers and mediocre basketball minds.

Stevens isn't building things the way certain people want and I expect the harassment and ignorance to continue until Ainge pushes some chips to the center of the table. At that point, they'll be exposed for the frauds that they are.

Let's be real for a minute. You have talked down to me, and I have degrees from three schools that wouldn't let you mop their floors. You've talked down to BfB, who is a professional in the field. You have talked down to truth18, even after he told you he has been published in the Paris Review.

We are all people who take **** smarter than your entire lineage.

You aren't an expert in the field because you watch synergy tape in your mother's basement, or because you play pickup with a guy who once played D1.

Never mind the scoreboard that you are getting owned on, I've passed on stuff here that came from Jerry West.

Why do I need to listen to you about anything, given your track record and attitude?

You got your stool pushed in tonight even more than I could have ever expected, and you know it. I know you know it, and you know that I know you know it.

Grow up and deal with that, kid.

Only bright spot I see is..we are not keeping all these freaking guards...something has to happen.
