Boston is selecting Mattise Thybulle at No. 20 -- and possibly trading him to the Sixers, league source tells ESPN.


BS:

No! Just keep him! No trade! Void the trade!


Woj:

Deal is agreed on -- and Sixers will send Boston Nos. 24 and 33 in this draft, league sources tell ESPN.


BS:

quote:

I hate this. Hate the Celtics draft so far. Hate it.


quote:

This dude is gonna be good and they just gave him to their biggest division rival. Ridiculous. Like they needed more picks.


BS earlier this morning:

quote:

I’ve spent the last few weeks reading mock drafts, watching YouTube videos + irrationally falling for prospects.

My fav guys for Boston’s 14/20/22 picks...

Herro
Claxton
Jerome
Thybulle

Fav late 1st/early 2nd round guys...

Okeke
Schofield
Fernando


His reply to that:

quote:

Celts picked 2 of my 4 guys and then traded them.


Then Simmons dad chimes in:

Celts trade back in a draft where players who can help the team are still sitting there. Agree with my son - hate our draft. We take a shooting guard who shoots 27% from the three in college, trade back to acquire a #33 pick, and pick an undersized forward who can’t shoot. Ugh




Zach Lowe:

quote:

Boston is receiving Milwaukee's 2020 first-round pick from Phoenix, sources say; MIL traded it to the Suns for Eric Bledsoe.


BS:

quote:

So we turned the 24th pick this year into the 30th pick next year? That can’t be true. Is this true? How is this true?



At least Kyrie is gone.

So Celts had 14, 20, 22 and Baynes and ended up with Romeo Langford, Grant Williams, 33 and Milwaukee’s 2020 1st that will undoubtedly be in the late 20s. I’m not throwing a party. Party cancelled.

Ainge is like Trump. We don't have to understand, we just have to trust.

It's 4D chess.

Maybe, but its time for Ainge to go. He makes all these draft trades to get more picks, but then is scared to give up ANY assets to get the big fish (Kawhi, AD, Butler, etc,)

Has a GM fallen as far, as fast, as Ainge?

Ainge loves to collect assets and not use them.

Never understood the big brained Ainge meme.



We're talking about a guy who offered 4 first round picks for the opportunity to draft Justise Winslow.

The only guy dumber is the guy who turned him down.

Ainge has an NBA Championship Banner.

Morey has a ticket to the Sloane Conference and a participation banner.

He put out a podcast with House this morning, and 30 minutes in he hasn't touched the Celtics draft yet.

But I'll be waiting for his pod with Russillo to get the best take on this.
