Jackson? Monk?

they desparately need shooting and someone who can defend PG/SG. Simmons can do most of the ball handling though

So can the Celtics win the East next season?

No gm worth anything would even attempt that. Fultz is clearly the best player in this draft and nobody will lose any sleep if he falls to them. This isn't like reaching for qb in football.

>>75960345

Alot of the players picked in that graphic are good though, mainly the top ten picks like Jaylen, Smart, Rozier, Bradley, obviously lower picks like 20-31 and the second round are a stretch so you won't get a superstar most of the time from them. So basically fuck you, Danny Ainge can draft.

>>75960291
No, no no. Fultz is the clear #1. Everybody knows that. Nobody would be pissed at getting Fultz. You can't threaten a team by offering them the clear #1 player in the draft. Ball being from LA just makes the #2 much better than a normal #2. However, the clear #1 is always preferable.


Besides, everybody knows Lavar is going to tell Ainge to not bother picking Lonzo. He will make that clear to everyone he wants Lonzo to be on the Lakers. Nobody is going to believe Celtics will take Lonzo when Fultz is the clear #1 and with Lavar denying the Celtics even the idea of Ball working out. Your scenario is a pipe dream.

>the celtics number combo came up THREE times
Wew

>>75960570
The Celtics? No shit.
But it wouldn't be if the Lakers were 1. So Fultz would fall to 2. Do you see now?

Don't teams with the #1 pick usually sign the player they want right away?

>Celtics have the number 1 pick in a 1 player draft
>Lelkers fans:"t-the pressure is on you"

LMAO

Loving every laugh :)

>>75960562
Cleveland had the top pick in 03 and 2011 I believe. Did kyrie go #1?

So it looks like GS will be 12-0. Spurs are dead. Another "great" playoff series for the Warriors against a cripple team.

How hype will the Finals be when both teams go in 12-0? Whoever wins will be, at worst, 16-3 which would be one of the best playoff recors ever

Am I dumb af for being concerned about who the Celtics are gonna play at power forward?

They're probably gonna draft Fultz to a position in wich they have Thomas, Bradley, Smart, Rozier

They're probably gonna sign or trade for a SF, a position they have Crowder and Brown at

Meanwhile at the 4 they got Amir Johnson and Jerebko expiring and Olynyk about to get overpaid lmao

>>75960610
Lakers are fine with either fultz or ball. Celtic fans are trying to make it seem like Lakers will get baited for some strange reason. God damn niggas. You just got the #1 pick, take Fultz you dummies.

>>75960615
They only let them get Kyrie because they knew Lepoop would come running back to Cleveland eventually.

>>75960649
Crowder is gone, probably via trade
Bradley is most likely going to walk
Smart is a toss up
Rozier is a toss up
Brown will be a fulltime starter in a year or two

>>75960649
Brown will become elite

Someone in this thread is sleeping on my Celtics again.............

>>75960649
Did you not watch the Wizards series?

IT
Fultz
Bradley
Smart
Horford

Brad Stevens is literally going to introduce the biggest thing since the triangle offense.

>>75960699
This!!!!!!!

Four Guard Lineup is the fucking future.

>>75960649
Amir is just a 1 year deal, so he's gone this FA
Jerebko is probably gone soon too
The Klynyk is a RFA that will probably be somewhere else too

My guess is that Danny will be looking for another couple bigs this offseason.
And now with Fultz, that opens up people like Rozier and Crowder to be openly traded for other players like a big.

>>75960699
I don't doubt Brad is gonna pull some wild shit, I mean he made Gerald Green work at the 4 in the playoffs

>>75960655
It's ok Sunsbro, you're still getting the second best PG in the draft to play alongside Booker.

>>75960649

The celtics' interior is a legit problem and they need to fix it to stand a chance against the cavs and up and coming teams like the Bucks or Philly. They were extremely lucky that Chicago and Washington didn't have paint bullies

>>75960661
They might have gotten the first overall pick 3 times in that 4-year stretch but they had abysmal records to go with those picks.

>>75960715
>Four Guard Lineup
I guess the Suns weren't thinking smart enough with Isaiah Thomas, Goran Dragic, and Eric Bledsoe that one season...

>>75960699

Lad calm down.
I would like to get at least 1 rebound per game.

Say what you want, but you're the home team. Pressure's on you. The Cavs will win game 4 and game 6, and will be fighting hard to win in either game 5 or 7. Pressure's on you, buddy-boy.

>>75960723
>>75960740
True, one of the biggest reasons the Cs won't reach the finals is the fact they suck at rebounding but everyone wants a Butler or George type trade. Get a big in there pls

>>75960736

Fox is going to Philly. Smith might be ok at 4 or they can just take Jackson

>>75960607

You can get away with that against the Wizards because Gortat ain't shit.

>>75960781
Paul George is huge and couldnt play 4 if he wasnt being a vagina about it like he does in Indy. Having a SF at 4 helps against the elite teams like Cleveland and Golden State. But it requires you have 2 starting-quality SFs which is rare

>>75960937
In fact, Fultz as the #1 will be a 7M cap hit. Which means we would have to trade/let people walk from this current roster to fit Heyward on a max for next season.

Most likely happens in the form of Crowder and Bradley being traded.

Value for both is at its highest.
Bradley's gone soon regardless, Crowder's contract is godly.
They also have other picks to trade too. I would imagine they'd make some kind of deal involving these guys this offseason.

And if not Bradley, then switch him with Smart.

>>75960973
If it was rigged, Cleveland wouldn't get to waste those #1 picks during the Heatles years.

How lucky is Fultz? Out of all years to be the #1 pick, he's going to be one when the #1 selection is held by a 50+ win team with a good, young coach and a front office with a proven track record instead of some dumpster fire franchise like Cavs, Clippers or Kings

>>75961001

Depends on how quickly Thon develops, how Parker recovers, and how long Lebron is still a top 5 player

>>75961097
Because they had Deron Williams before he went totally to shit, Joe Johnson when he was a borderline all-star, and Brook Lopez at his best and they thought they could challenge the Heat. They could not.

>>75961097
Their Russian owner was a dummy.

>>75961097
They moved to Brookly and their Russian oligarch owner wanted to be good right away.

>>75961097
Because they thought with Doc, KG, and Paul they'd be contenders so those pics would be high 20s and would virtually not matter.

Things didn't go so good.

The fucking NBA draft is rigged, why do I even bother.

>>75961097
Because they thought they'd be contenders for the foreseeable future after that trade and that the picks would end up in the high 20s

Like you are really okay with this SHIT? This is what you fucks cheer for huh? This is your pride, your team? Pretty fucking disgusting that not only are you okay with this, but you CHEER for this. WORST PLAYOFFS EVER. THANKS ALOT WARRIORS. I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN LIVE WITH YOURSELF, BECAUSE WHAT YOU DO THIS GAME IS NOT OKAY. THIS ISN'T OKAY

Lakers will draft Jackson. He literally is better now than Lonzo and has a brighter upside

>>75961159
is lemask the ultimate version of lebron?

>>75960783
Philly is going to take Fox, Jackson or Monk. The last one would absolutely be a reach at #3 but next to Fultz he's the most perfect player for the sixers in this draft.

Jackson i think is the most likely.

>>75961116
Blake Griffin was a 52% free throw shooter coming into the league and now he's above 75%, so it's not necessarily indicative.

>>75961157
>thinking anybody cares about LeBums 7 finals

So who do the Celtics get in free agency?

They literally rigged the draft for you anyways, absolutely disgusting.

>>75961097

>>75961186
Youre going to see ultimate Lebron in the Finals this year.

>>75961234
No one will come to Boston unless they make the Finals.

>>75961106

Depends on how he recovers. Parker was a special talent and looked like he was really starting to get it on offense. He and Giannis had great chemistry on offense. Either way they need to get better/consistent production from their guards, so if they can find something better they should go for it

>>75961206

Ball is a better fit than Fultz for us desu. Celtics can run Fultz at 1 with IT playing SG much like Aaron/AI in the early 2000s. We can swap Clarkson, Russell, Ball and even Ingram all interchangeably.

Now we just have to decide if we wanna extend Bully...

>>75961390
Why would anybody trade their #1 for the best draft in literally years is beyond me. Okafor is a terrible defender, at the very least get a superstar with that pick.

>>75961390
Nigga I would throw Slowkafor+Lakers pick+Sixers 2018 pick + 2019 Kings pick for Fultz

>>75961390
I like a couple players on the Sixers roster, particularly Okafor and Simmons, but they are untouchable so I don't even hold my breath for it.

Gonna have to wait till they exhaust over there and become free agents.

But I guess in that dream scenario of yours it would work.

Yeah I know but I want him getting starting time. He absolutely NEEDS to develop. And with that kind of team you dreamed up, they'd be able to make up for him.

It is absolutely rigged and has been since day fucking 1 when they rigged it so NY got Ewing.

Part of the fun of the NBA is seeing how they're going to rig it.

>>75961390
Not a Celtics fan, but why would they do that? Fultz could be a perennial All Star, and probably will be if he's nurtured by Stevens and the Celtics' good coaching staff. The Celtics are at the point of their rebuild where it's time to start cashing assets in and acquiring high level players. Fultz is part of that, along with whoever they get in free agency.

We better be getting some good asians this draft

I think the chemistry would be amazing.” Fultz later added that he’s “versatile enough to play (point guard) or (shooting guard). Whatever a team needs me to do to win, I think I’m capable of doing that.”

He's already jizzing his pants about playing with IT.

>>75961566

can that player file charges for assault?

So Sixers are gonna have Jackson/Simmons/Embiid as the front court and literalwhos as the backcourt? I feel like they might be better taking Fox.

>>75961662
Smart. Horford. Presumably Crowder if he's still there. Jaylen who looks really fucking good on Defense if Brad would just PLAY HIM.

Stevens hammers home defense, so they have other players to make up for the loss.

Not that it would be easy to replace obviously, but they'll survive with the uptick in scoring from Fultz.
