All Things #1 Pick 2017 Take 2

[31to6]

If Ainge had something lined up wouldn't the 1st pick in the draft be more valuable than the 3rd? What the heck am I missing?

The future pick

We have an embarrassment of riches right now. It's an amazing time to be a Celtics fan.

We might well have just acquired Deandre Ayton, Michael Porter, Mo Bamba, Luka Doncic, or Marvin Bagley for moving 'down' from Fultz to Josh Jackson (knock on wood, that's the one part of this that's still really weird yet).

And if those names don't yet mean anything to you, I am enormously confident that one year ago today the name Markelle Fultz didn't mean anything to you either.

Captain Caveman, report to the endzone for the customary 'yall don't know what you're missing right now' dance.

Oh.My. ****. What in the **** is going on right now. LA pick is top 3 protected...lmao i can't even. Danny got ass raped.

Maybe you should read a few pages back. Not even close

I fell behind 5 pages when i went to take a piss.

[BigTrade92]

So we passed on Fultz for a single lottery ticket?

Is this a f*****g joke?

[165bows]

Solid value, especially if they didn't like Fultz much more than the rest of the top.

Would have been the bomb to get both of those future picks, but the protections are pretty solid.

Now to figure out what the rest of the trades are going to be.

[Gant]

Feel pretty strongly the Lakers pick will not be triggered next year. We're waiting two years for Sacramento or trading it.

Good chance, and Sacramento will be very bad for a long time.

seems like almost everyone more than hinted at it,but then again maybe i read it incorrectly.

No, you all did suggest it. That was clear. Now the second part that was hinted is on deck.

Pick 3 and a pick that we likely don't even see to 2019

In fact. That picks going to **** Chicago. Just like Jackson.

I'm over this ****

I hope your wrong I really like Jackson and would rather move Brown (who I am also a big fan of) but your starting to catch on. I don't think we hold on to the Lakers pick it is going for Butler or George the protection on it is so beautiful as a trade asset.

OK, so it's either a really strong Laker pick or an unprotected King's pick in 2019.

Obviously Danny was never going to draft Fultz either way. I would guess the medical went bad

And Philly doesn't care about the medical??

[DusterBuster]

Just read the Woj explanation.....

Yeah, now I'm a bit more on the side of angry Celtic fans. 3 picks was a no brainer.... 2..... Ehhhhhhh

We don't get two

We get one.

I was looking for a gif of splitting hairs, but got this as a result...

Tatum will be the pick at 3 if the Celtics keep the pick in my opinion

I think it's this Dennis smith Jr guy. He's sneaking up all.over the place sort of like how Brown did last year

#3 and another one dude

Is this the **** spin?

We LOST PICK 1. Pick 3 is not a extra pick we don't already have

Tatum will be the pick at 3 if the Celtics keep the pick in my opinion

I don't see him being a star. Nothing he does makes me go

Philly has a medical staff?!

We already had one pick. We get one more than we had, not two.

protected draft pick for a #1 is as useful as a second ****. I'd rather chop off my dick. The dude ainge wants can't shoot for what, the 4th **** year in a row, and plays the same position. Just another turd. The MO

How are some of you even defending this move lmao unless you are team Jackson but even then everyone should agree this package Ainge is getting is ****

He had no interest in Fultz. That is what this tells me.

Even if he didn't he should have demanded more

Still ass.

We didn't even hear about the Celtics swap rights with the nets to weeks later.

So may be something else breaks with the story

[derblitzenator]

Tatum will be the pick at 3 if the Celtics keep the pick in my opinion

I wonder if Danny will shop the pick to the Kings assuming Tatum is his target and the Kings agree to take Fox. He could easily net WCS from them, who would fit right into Danny's defensive juggernaut he's trying to build.
