Well #19 is better than #22 and I much prefer the Celtics to draft before the Spurs as Pop usually knows what he's doing. Don't care about what position the draftee plays, just pick the best player available Danny. Hopefully we don't end up with a Marcus Banks, Gerald Green, Gabe Pruitt, or J.R. Giddens type, or trade the pick for Sebastian Telfair.

Interesting Celtics Draft Fact: Danny Ainge's two best draftees, Al Jefferson and Rajon Rondo, were each offered to Seattle/OKC at different times for Robert Swift. As the old adage goes, "Sometimes the best trades are the ones that are not made, because the other GM was dumber than you." I think that's the adage...

A solid player should be available at #19. I haven't researched the draft much (ok at all) yet, but we'll have a ton of stuff on the draft in June. Well actually, we'll probably start not too far after the Celtics season ends. And no TB, you can not use the "Well then we're starting in a week" joke. Anyone have any guys they realistically hope will drop to #19?
