The new Ibaka/Biyombo.
No lies detected.I just upload a screenshot to imgur.
@ESPNSteinLine: Sources say Phoenix, in its failed trade pitch to convince Utah to surrender Gordon Hayward, tried to pair Eric Bledsoe with a lottery pick
If that was #4 then that is a pretty good return. But I doubt it was #4. And Bledsoe wouldn't exactly fill a need at this point.
But all this smoke... Are the Celtics still a trade partner? Or is that just the Stevens thing? I personally think that Dunn/Murray/Bender for Hayward straight up is an awful deal for us. Throw in Crowder and we can talk, but I would guess that C's fans think they are getting fleeced in that deal.
Lyle, grant me your wisdom.
Celtics picking Zhou Qi now
I don't care if Thon and Zhou are actually 40 year old men, I still want the C's to take them.
DraftExpress has, presumably, their last mock draft up. http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-mock-draft/2016/
Celtics pick up:
Kriss Dunn
Ivica Zubac
Furkan Korkmaz
Guerschon Yabusele
Georgios Papagiannis
Malcolm Brogdon
Wayne Selden
Joel Bolomboy
I'm 90% certain that at least half of these guys aren't even real.
Well...shit.

Papagiannis is real and he's amazing.
What is this?
So how many players would you have to cut? Isn't a roster just 15 dudes? Where are you gonna put them?
This seems like something the Nets should do.

Most of those guys are European so almost everyone in that list is a draft and stash candidates. But the C's still need to consolidate assets.
D League / have them stay international for a few years. That being said, I think it's very very unlikely the Celtics draft 8 players tonight.
Nets Trying to Move Thad Young for a 1st Rounder.
Emm Raps should trade Ross and the 27th for him. Don't do it for the 9th!
Beautiful.
Come home Nerlens!
I don't get why either team is that desperate to make a deal as it seems they are. The Sixers are in a slightly trickier spot because they literally can't play those guys without hurting development of their players. I still don't think Dunn is an ideal fit for the Celts but they could easily not resign Turner and squeeze him some minutes.
Colangelo is apparently in love with Dunn so if he wants him they pretty much have to trade for the third pick...or use the first on him.
@WojVerticalNBA: Kris Dunn has significant traction in Boston as No. 3 pick, sources tell @TheVertical. No final decision -- and trades remain on table.

Everyone told me this was a 2 player draft and that everyone else was useless though.
It's becoming more clear that teams really like Dunn.
I'm holding out hope that the Rose-less Bulls fall in love before 8 pm.
Wolves and Pelicans also want Dunn. We might get a bidding war for #3.
The Sixers should keep all 3 of those Frontline studs just in case 1 goes down with a leg injury.
It's still a two player draft but Dunn seems to be ahead of everyone else and there are apparently very few quality point guards in this draft. As for the Bulls, I can't see them making that trade, they'd be better off using Butler as their primary ball handler.
3 straight up for Noel is stupid. They better get more.Marc Stein is saying that Noel is the likely guy
Tyreke and 6 for 3 and filler late first rounder.Wolves and Pelicans also want Dunn. We might get a bidding war for #3.

Warriors trying to move up from 30, possibly as far up as the teens. Interesting.
Don't be surprised to see the Pacers emerge as a major player in the Kevin Durant sweepstakes.
Covington and Noel for 33 straight up for Noel is stupid. They better get more.
