There's another shoe or two to fall here
Reports indicate that Celts are not done dealing.
Ainge didn't downgrade from #1 to #3 just to gamble on the Lakers pick next year.
Clearly Ainge is thinking "win now" and will most probably use the #3 pick to get Jimmy Butler or Paul George.
Yawn. There's unfounded gossip, just like the gossip that the Celtics were SURE to trade the #3 pick last year.

Jackson is going to the Lakers. We are not worried about him or them.
#3 may be going to the Bulls.

Source confirms that trade with Philly likely to be announced Monday. C's get No. 3 and Boston-friendly protection on 2018 Lakers pick.

Re source, Celtics would have option to obtain 2019 Kings pick if 2018 Lakers pick is too low.

That's much better. I thought it was top 3 or top 5 protected.
Rmbone,
So even if you are right and LA takes Jackson and their pick drops to 10th Danny still covered us because Sacto is a dumpster fire on the scale of Brooklyn. They have picks and Brooklyn doesn't but they are an incoherent mess from top to bottom.

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

MY NOTE: Only 2-5? No protection on the Sacto pick? And we still have this year's #3.

The Celtics' overflowing backcourt also factored into their decision to pass on Fultz, sources say.

Re: DEAL IS DONE!! FULTZ TO PHILLY
Understandable that we would go for a package that would land us more top picks in coming years.
Strange that this wasn't a draft night deal, however, selecting Fultz for the 76ers and then making the trade. If anything, that's a position of higher leverage.
Now, we wait to see who LA takes or try to trade the 3rd pick. Jackson, Tatum and Ball would all be good additions, no argument there, and we really need to add a small forward, so Jackson or Tatum would be a big boost.
But by itself, this deal leaves a lot of unanswered questions. We've helped a division rival improve tremendously, and LA controls who we pick. Far from Ainge's best work.
Unless there's more to come...

so we have the 3rd pick in this years draft and a very good chance for 2 lottery picks in 18.....could be very good or great.

NYCelt,
Philly was going to be helped almost as much anyway, if this draft is as deep as you all have been saying. "Deep" means the talent level from 1 to 3 isn't that much. They gain a little on the difference, we lose a little on the difference but we gain another lottery pick

Rmbone,
I don't know if that's what this deal says at all. Fultz may indeed become better than Bradley, Brown and Smart.
I think the translation may be "we need a SF."

Bob, I just passed 1,000 subscribers on Youtube. 250 new subscribers in the past 28 days. Thank you so much for your patient public speaking tips. I'm still not great at it, but much much better. Thanks again for taking the time man.

So then why not trade a guard or two and Crowder and sign Hayward. Then we'd have Fultz and Hayward and the lesser guards and SFs would be gone for what/whomever?

I notice the Markelle Fultz thread has been pretty quiet since last night. Any particular reason for that? Been taking a nap...

Bob,
I don't think Philly felt they were going to get as much help at 3 if they were looking for a guard and Fultz and Ball were both gone. That's why they wanted to deal. Several other excellent guards coming in this very deep draft, but not with the can't miss label of Fultz and Ball. Ainge may have more up his sleeve, and that would explain this early swap. If not, and we use the pick, he may have been able to get a little more by waiting. The '18 and '19 picks we received both have variables attached. I think giving up a first pick, the most valuable property in the league, should net a little more.
My read, anyway. Although I'm very happy if we end up with Jackson or Tatum. I've been saying right along that we need, and I would take, a SF, and we will have at least one of two excellent choices available. Hard for me to be unhappy about that!

I'm told in addition to this, Boston "had serious concerns about Fultz being a winner. Too many red flags there to pick him at #1."

Because getting Hayward is not a sure thing.
Getting Jackson or Tatum is.

Really seemed to go downhill in a hurry after Brad spoke to Fultz's guidance counselor about how Fultz learned and handled serbacks.

Steve very funny but no unbelievable. These last few years have been disgusting the way they played. I know Emblid got hurt and then Simmons, but they have been in the lottery too often. Other teams have to be steaming about this. In the end, they will either screw it up or win big.
Time will tell I guess
