He's not way too high, he's going to be really good. It's really just him or Smith, and they might not like Smith. Markannen is a real player who already has an elite skill

I guess if you don't want Giles it makes sense to have two more rotation players

I would guess the opposite, if you do want giles and don't want to overpay, unless you think he'll go at 10

Zach Collins to portland
I watched a bunch of his video last night to firm up my opinion and he really does look like he could be a solid defender at 4/5
The offense stuff is hopes and dreams at this point

Neil Osheay overtaking Vlade as worst gm

They had no one at 4 or backup 5 who's any good and maybe they didn't want to take a chance on Giles/Anuboby etc. it's a relatively safe pick aside from him playing 3 minutes per game

Thank you

It might just be rub off from this thread but I'm getting really happy about taking this guy I hadn't heard of, everything I'm reading sounds like a great fit.

He's my favorite player in the draft. He /Fox/and Josh Jackson have the highest ceilings in the draft. Maybe Giles if you discount injuries and injury trouble.

He's a little fertilizer bomb, a round package that explodes. He can shoot, he can go 1 on 5, he can make passes through tiny windows. He's going to look like a new man with Dallas's solid role players and Dirk rather than a bunch of nobodies

Gores fired everyone from the Dumars era, it's not even the same team. My heart's broken

There's some chance Kennard remains a great shooter and can dribble enough to make his open shoots, which we can't say about KCP

still :smith:

Kennard is the First NBA balding rookie since Kyle Singler
Kyle Singler was a good player as a piston
therefore he'll be an okay NBA player

Not sure who they're targeting but Trey lyles loving sucks so fine by me

That's a really good trade. Lyles could be better with a bigger role but bigs who can't defend are almost always going to be bench players. Maybe they'll try for Giles or go for another long armed man with Mitchell or Anuboby

The NBA draft is wild

Squinky v2.0 posted:

I feel like I'm crazy because I think it's fine Ainge did nothing other than take the pick. I would have preferred fultz but if they don't agree I'm willing to accept they know more about basketball than me. I just don't see a lot of gain in trading multiple top end lotto picks for George or Butler, especially George.

The playoffs were pretty sobering, planning to be Real Good in 3 years and not sooner seems correct to me. Plus, still have ammo if Zing or Davis or something shakes free in the next year.

So many Celtics fans are antsy for any kind of action, but I'm pretty ok with all this.

Butler deal was really bad but it sounds like the package they wanted out of Boston was a lot bigger than what they got so idk
The problem with hoarding lottery picks and not using them when you win the lottery is that you're sort of missing the point of the game. Taytum's NBA ceiling is miles lower than Fultz's

The Celtics both want to be good now and be good in the future and the compromise is leading to some odd choices

So is Monk any good? I never bothered to look

He is a real deal bucket getter, the comp is Lou Williams but he could be much better. He's a 6'2ish sg so the defense will never be there, but he's going to score, probably
