Just came over to wish you guys Good Luck tonight, feels like there's some talent out there but perhaps we'll see if DA can evaluate draft talent.

Last ever Boston draft for the Ainge Cartel?

All they seem to be able to do right now, panic and leak?

Danny Ainge

Terry Rozer!

Austin Ainge

Mickey Mouse! Care Bears!

and introducing Mike Zarren

May I offer you something to drink? Wine, a cocktail, Espresso? I make it myself back there with the little lemon twist. It's good. You should try it.

at least it isn't the Lakers

What's a salary cap?

Give me Bol Bol.

I've put about 15 minutes into scouting this draft, so I feel pretty confident I know who Danny should draft: Goga Bitadze at 14, Brandon Clarke or Claxton at 20, and Grant Williams at 22.

wrap it up.

Fun fact: Bol Bol sounds very similar to the translation of pubic hair in Filipino (bulbol).

Another factoid: Bol Bol weighs just a wee bit more than one Filipino pubic hair.

BUT... he does have better form on 3pointers.

Can someone with ESPN+ tell us who are Celts taking in their mock.

I want Goga at 14 unless someone drops.

I can bet there are people who could do a better job at drafting than Celtics FO by watching just 10 minutes of highlights.
I think this whole draft process has become so overcomplicated that lot FOs simply overthink everything.

Won't complain if that is the result.

Did you have to spend three times the amount of time scouting the draft than the Celtics did?

Golden State now has pick 41.

The Hawks should lower their ticket prices, they are rich from selling second rounders.

#14 Bol Bol/Bitadze
#20 NAW/Langford
#22 trade for a future pick

Need one of those Nuggets 2014 Draft nights to happen to us. Denver absolutely nailed that draft.

Bol Bol and I'll throw up. Injured in HS, injured in college. He's frail and soft. Just say no

Can we open a Spoiler Free Draft Thread?

Darth Celtic · Post #199 » by **Darth Celtic** » Thu Jun 20, 2019 9:40 pm

The draft doesn't start for an hour, posting rumors verified by Woj and Shams shouldn't give you a problem. When the draft is live and they get the ticket 2 mins ahead, I get it. Yall need to calm down if this kind of thing sets you off in life.

Agreed. I don't even see the point of drafting safe anymore. Putting 4 years into someone who would never sniff the floor on as a starter on a championship caliber team seems just seems like a complete waste...hello Kelly Olynyk. Those guys are a dime a dozen in free agency and always available for peanuts in trades.

I'll take the upside with all the risk and character concerns that comes along with extreme upside outside of the top 5. I rather hit on 1 out of 10 outlier talents with major risk than 10 out of 15 safe role players that never move the needle. Especially when you have a GM that has job security and doesn't need to play it safe with instant results.

With that in mind give me Bol Bol Bol, Kevin Porter Jr., Darius Bazely, and Jalen Leque all day long. If Bol breaks his back,Kevin Porter Jr. punches Hayward on the bench, and Leque never hits a jumper then so be it...at least we won't be haunted by Olynyk over Giannis EVER AGAIN!

Would you Be In Favor of a 3rd Round to the Draft?
