Danny Ainge talks 2008 champion Celtics, the draft, and Kobe Bryant on Hoop Streams
Danny Ainge joined the ESPN Hoop Streams crew of Cassidy Hubbarth, Amin Elhassan, and Kendrick Perkins to reminisce about the 2008 championship team. Ainge also said he's ready for this year's NBA draft whenever the league wants to have it (The Celtics will most likely have three mid to late first rounders). Danny also had some flattering words to say about the late Kobe Bryant. Ainge had just been hired as the head coach of the Phoenix Suns when Bryant worked out for them as high school senior.
p.s. Wonder if Perk requested to use a pic without Ray Allen for the cover art of the episode?
