Boston Celtics Select JR Giddens at #30

[Spin Move]

Discuss, I myself am very disapointed, Deandre Jordan, Mario Chalmers, Bill Walker all would have been better picks IMOP Giddens is not nearly as good a prospect on the wings as Walker. However Danny probably knows better then me. Giddens has alot of tools, but he got booted out of kansas for a reason.

Bad pick, not much else to say really.

Also Chris Douglas Roberts was still available. UGH.

Giddens can ball for sure, but how do you take him over Bill "Sky" Walker? I mean come on! That guy is a freak.

[Datruth345]

i too thought there were better players available

especially jordan cdr and walker

in danny we trust though

he sees things alot of other gm's do not

[SonicYouth34]

Don't we already have a combo guard named Gabe?

CDR is trash.

I'm just hoping that that long delay before the pick is a sign that this was trade. He's a good defensive SG but he's horrible value considering who else was on the board. I wish we would have gone Jordan instead. We need at least one more player over 6'10 on the roster.

Bye Tony Allen.

speechless

there are plenty of bigs in free agency I don't think it's a big deal to get one in this draft. We picked a guy that will rarely play and has potential to fill a role that Tony Allen couldn't.

Looks like our rotational players will come from free-agency.

Here's the list of available SG that were measured at Orlando by reach.

Gidden's at the top.

Well let's hope he works out better then Banks - another mountain conference stud.. Walker sounded pretty exciting though. I am surprised we went with Giddens.

Well, if anyone can pull it, check out his last game. 1st round NIT at Cal. He was awesome.

I am not a fan of the pick, but I am a fan of the player. He's really good. Probably means TA is gone though, which I do not like.

Think McHale and Ainge might've swapped 30 and 31? It'd make more sense for the Celts to take Pekovic.
