Oh no Ainge what is you doing?!

 

[Cornbread78]

Seriously, I'm getting battered spouse fan syndrone from Danny at this point...

Either bring in a fucking all star player and make this a three team deal or fuck off Danny

"According to league source, Celtics will receive the No. 3 overall pick this year & a protected future first-round pick from Philly, not two" - @AdamHimmelsbach

Uhhh...

lol Celtics. Fans keep getting their hopes up around draft time and he let's them down.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Ainge is hoarding pick to try to trade for an actual NBA player he wants. Drafting all those players will get you nowhere. Young teams don't win in the NBA right away and take years.

You are right. The Warriors would have been far better off if they had traded the picks that turned into Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson for like Danny Granger in 2011z

"Sounds like 2018 LAL pick the Celtics are getting is unprotected, but 2019 SAC pick has a protection on it. Trying to get the details." - @KeithSmithNBA


OK then.

 

[FZZ]

And yet the Sixers still had a better record then your Garbo team

TRUST THE PROCESS

Don't shit on us bih

Our process got us 3 number 2 picks 3 years in a row

And I will take my money to the bank on BI being better than Simmons

I know you're riding high rn but wait until all your guys step on a court until you utter this slander

Magic Johnson is a 5 time world champion, has more chips than your entire franchise

Im glad these Kings picks are finally going to good use for once.

OK then.

Lakers pick will probably turn into something in the 8-10 range. Interesting trade indeed.

That's not a bad haul at all tbh

It took them 6 years and they hit on every single pick...

Bruh Brandon Ingram 6'10 and weighs the same as I do

 

[Slizeezyc]

I think even with protections, that's enough of a ransom to feel okay about giving up the top pick, especially if you want to move many of the picks anyway. It's not a Boston/Brooklyn-style coup but it's a very good deal to only move down two spots.

 

[Sandfox]

It is unless one of the those picks win the draft lottery.

How are the dodgers doing? Being honest, I don't give two fucks about baseball but other than his talent evaluation which is questionable at best, dude seems fine

Have more issues with Jeanie than him

 

[darkwing-buck]

To be fair he has his assistant write those tweets

 

[LyleLanley]

Good thing Magic was apparently in love with Fultz.

 

[Slizeezyc]

Bruh, are we best friends? Brandon Ingram shot 62 percent from the line and 29 percent from deep.

 

[Tall4Life]

No...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_State_Warriors_draft_history

They hit the 3 picks that mattered, though

 

[friskykillface]

Fultz gonna be the next Michael Carter Williams

Fultz gonna be the next Michael Carter Williams

breh, MCW couldn't shoot the ball, was 23 as a rookie, and was worse in college then a 18-19 year old.

Well that's that.

See stats post all star break

he's literally 19 still and only a few months older than a majority of this draft class

hes younger than JJ

edit: How did celtics fuck this up, no one wants a Lakers/Philly rivalry

I am out. One pick and it is protected?

"Celtics will get Lakers pick if it falls between 2 and 5 in the 2018 draft, per league source. If not, the Celtics will get the Kings in '19" -@DerekBodnerNBA

Interesting.

 

[Tom Penny]

Derek Bodner ✔ @DerekBodnerNBA
Celtics will get Lakers pick if it falls between 2 and 5 in the 2018 draft, per league source. If not, the Celtics will get the Kings in '19

So it's a 2-5 pick or Sacramento Pick...dumb. Needed both picks.

 

[darkwing-buck]

 

[Tall4Life]

The NBA got rid of Hinkie because they knew that he figured out the system and didn't want to make it look like he succeeded.

It's too late now.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

Just one extra pick? The fuck are you doing Ainge
It's not final yet, get shitty Okafor

I'd believe a Woj tweet before any other random.

It's still 3 breh.


EDIT: The 2018 Lakers pick to BOS has protections on top and bottom that could keep it in Philly, and if so, then 2019 Kings' pick goes to Boston. - Woj

RIP, nvm. enjoy your two picks breh.

 

[LionPride]

Quick Note

You can legally drink? You ain't on my draft board if I'm picking 1-40

I'd believe a Woj tweet before any other random.

It's still 3 breh.

Woj could tweet out that I'm bout to sky dive and I'd believe his ass

You gotta be kidding me. We dropping down to #3 for a Kings pick in 2 years

 

[FZZ]

Ainge REALLY has a type doesn't he?

 

[Corran Horn]

You gotta be kidding me. We dropping down to #3 for a Kings pick in 2 years

Kings will be playing in the Finals by then too...bad trade for yall...

 

[Tall4Life]

Everyone, we have to believe that the Lakers will still be shitty next season

 

[Cooter]

That may well be the 1st pick though. Just saying.

 

[Jarate]

Everyone, we have to believe that the Lakers will still be shitty next season

but not too shitty

 

[Tall4Life]

but not too shitty

We still have the Nets pick so we could get #1 with that and #2 with the Lakers

#BeCleve

 

[Tom Penny]

Top 5 shitty. Probably not but decent odds are decent on Nets or Lakers pick maybe panning out. Worst case Kings will be top 10 because they are the Kings.

 

[StanleyStutters]

That may well be the 1st pick though. Just saying.

True enough, just a lot of unknowns for my liking. Who knows what the Kings will be like in 2 years. Granted, it's probably a great pick, but I don't like giving up on Fultz to play the lotto again .

 

[Cooter]

If the Cs get 1 and 2 next year you guys will be bowing down to lord Ainge.

But then we draft the second coming of both Kwame Brown and Olowakandi...

DANNY AINGE WAS HINKIE ALL ALONG


BAH GAWD

I know. They will be terrible. Book it.
