My body's ready to spend the next 12 hours or so following the draft and the next days/weeks watching/reading every material about our pick/s. With the pandemic, there's about 5 months' worth of those. And so I hope we use at least 2 of those picks. Fun days ahead!

I’m predicting we stand pat at 14 and take RJ Hampton and nobody is going to be happy about it. I’m also expecting both later picks to be dealt

Nbadraft.net (grain of salt) has Saddiq Bey at 14 and Nesmith falling all the way to 26 to us. That'd be a killer draft. Tankathon has Nesmith at 16, so it seems hes dropping.

Worried that we’re trying to get the #3 pick to draft LaMelo (aka the Next Harden).
Paul Pierce appreciation society.

Luka is the next Harden. LaMelo doesn't play like Harden at all..

If Celtics are looking to move up to 3 they must be targeting LaMelo. Tatum, Brown and Kemba with an athletic, big playmaker who plays fast (unlike Hayward) with Theis/RW at center is a pretty exciting team.

I just don’t believe in LaMelo .... but if Danny and Brad do....and he realizes the potential being hyped.....that is a really great 2 way squad on paper.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."
