Tatum impressed in his workout for the C's. I want to draft this kid.

Danny would ofc taken brown last year number 1. He just proved that this year.
Hard decision for me since brown didn't show alot but showed enough that there's something there. Stuff a million other prospects never do.
But pick 3 has the unknkown and could be a jackpot.
Id say pick 3
Danny didn't prove that he would have taken Brown #1 last year because he traded down this year.
That idea doesn't make any sense at all.

It makes perfect sense actually.
I can only go on what danny has proven over and over again.
That he has his own draft board. That he has his own set of guys he likes and that when he has the number 1 pick he will go against convention and consensus and trade down to take a guy who can't shoot.
Be real man. Danny values pick 3 and extra lottery picks over pick number 1. This isn't because he doesn't like fultz.
And realistically what are the chances the Celtics bring Simmons in for a workout last year and don't find the injury that led to his season ending surgery? We're already hearing spin that fultz leg is playing a part in this decision. God forbid this kid misses next year and all the "danny was right just see threads pop up.
Atleast HALF of real gm believe that fultz is better or equal to Simmons. This isn't simply a case of last year number 1 pick is just leagues ahead of this one. I know this because I put the poll out on the general board. People are spilt.
And Simmons can't shoot for ****.
It's not hard to derive what danny would of done. If we had pick 1 and Sixers had 3 last year he would of coupd the laker pick this year like he did for next year's.

If Danny had Simmons on the top of his board, he would not have traded a first overall pick last year.
He would have taken Simmons.

"The future first round pick will be the Los Angeles Lakers’ 2018 pick if it’s within the No. 2 to No. 5 range of the 2018 draft. If it is not, the Celtics will instead receive either Sacramento’s or Philadelphia’s first round pick in 2019, whichever is more favorable. However, if either of those 2019 picks result in the first overall selection, Boston will instead receive the other first round pick."
