I feel like if Danny Ainge does what he normally does in the draft it will be him picking like Tatum or something like that. But even he can't pass on Fultz, right???

If he does a non-Fultz pick I think it would be Jackson. But I really don't think he'll pass on Fultz, especially because I don't think he likes the idea of maxing out Isaiah that much after next year

Does he have a choice?

I guess if the Celtics get worked by Lebron it'd be an easier sell to a fanbase, but I can't imagine letting Isaiah go would go over well

Did the 2013 or 2014 teams have one?

For the regular-season the 2013 team had Parker, Splitter, Duncan in the top fifteen. 2014 team had Kawhi in the top fifteen.

As far as playoff WS/48 so far it's interesting. Only one time in the 3P era has a team had three guys in the top five. If GSW maintains this pace they'll be the second:

code:
2017 Player		WS/48
Kawhi Leonard • SAS	0.352
LeBron James • CLE	0.294
Stephen Curry • GSW	0.28
Draymond Green • GSW	0.276
Kevin Durant • GSW	0.269

1981 Player		WS/48
Marques Johnson • MIL	0.26
Bob Lanier • MIL	0.206
Cedric Maxwell • BOS	0.201
Larry Bird • BOS	0.198
Kevin McHale • BOS	0.177

The same three as last year. :eyepop:

Even if he would have hypothetically gone to the Lakers or something, at least some semblance or parity/fun games would have continued. I don't know...when LeBron bailed on the Cavs at least it wasn't to the Celtics or some already top heavy team at the time. He pretty much created a super team out of thin air in a lot of ways with Bosh and Wade.

Hell imagine had he gone to the Celtics or Wizards? The ECF would probably be cranked up another notch about now.

Everyone else is up in arms but honestly I think somethings wrong with me because I don't see LMA and Zaza's as an intentional dirty play. Your body is always shifting. poo poo if everything I did was put under a microscope in pick-up games I would be afraid to even contest a shot.
