Correction, TWO future 2nds. God tier.

Hmmmm... Celtics are really stocking up on Draft Picks these days.

Future 2nd round picks are valuable because they are cheap contracts and there are 3 two ways now

Two of Miller, Nnaji, Rupert or Jackson will be there at 31.

Just saying. My guys are all still on the board.

1. Cissoko
2. Colby Jones
3. Leonard Miller

Would also take Nnaji, Rupert, Walsh, TJD, GG or Andre Jackson

Jaquez stolen by the Heat… of course.

If Brad doesn’t trade #31 for 2 later 2nds then Belichick isn’t coming to anymore Celtic games

I think the Celtics like Trayce Jackson-Davis but we will see

I want the best shot blocker available above 6'7 minimum.

Think OMax was the guy they really wanted at 25 but Sac jumped them to get him 1 spot earlier so there was no reason left to stay in the 1st round.

2nd round picks are the new top 3 picks. Believe me.

3 x 2nd Rounders for Pick #25. Not too shabby.

Probably should trade down and pick up a few more 2nds...

31st pick is however a perfect pick to start filling the 2-ways we may have available. We also don't have to guarantee a four-year contract with the 31st pick.

Let's get this James Nnaji guy. They say he can be like Clint Capela and that works for me.

Horford will retire after next year so we need to draft his replacement.

Also apparently he's big and plays with force like Capela and I don't mind getting some athleticism and force and rebounding skill in our frontcourt besides just TimeLord. Nice to have a backup option for that in case TimeLord is out for half the season or the playoffs.

This makes sense.

Jaquez and Prosper, but they were both gone before 25, so Brad pulled another nice chess move in moving down.

Now watch him pivot again! 8-)

Honestly, if a guy is 6’8” and “**** blocking” is a primary strength I’d be concerned. Sounds like an Oompa Loompa center I don’t want lol

I do like that Brad is re-stocking the bare cupboard if we really don't get a player that can help us with the banners now.

Andre Jackson can't shoot a lick, but otherwise, he's a beast in all other respects.
