(Edit: It's Official) 76ers and Celtics discussing trade involving the #1 pick

[O.T.I.S.]

Someone tell ainge Andre Drummond is here...waiting

Just give us the Brooklyn pick next year

That would be nice to see

At least you will have a big man not afraid of the ball

Wait....so Ainge trades down two spots to possibly select the wing you suggest they need, all while adding what could be a high lottery pick in next year's draft, and that makes Ainge the worst GM in the league?

And no I'm the one that needs to shut his ass up. Got it.

He could've took the wing at 1 instead of 3 what's the difference? Like I said shut yo ass up

Worked for LeBron

Cavs made sure they tanked to get bron

No sense in arguing with a slow person. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, bruh.

This is the best news for Laker fans


Boston throwing smoke, think they can land JJ at #3 and add more picks.


Sixers take Fultz, Lakers take JJ

You acting like JJ was never going to be available for the Lakers regardless

Fultz was always going #1 its just that Boston doesnt really need that type of player and it was smart to go down 2 spots to get another 1st round pick to either trade off later or actually use


And I like Josh Jackson so if he goes to LA I wont be mad but Lonzo seems like the type of player LA needs.

Fultz had a VERY good workout while both ball and josh Jackson were bad. If you can get fultz and get rid of Randle.. I m ready to crown magic as the goat

I think if boston doesnt trade the pick we can get fultz at 2


Id rather trade Randle in a package to get rid of Deng or Mozgov tho

His 25 percent ft shooting is not welcomed.

 

[Listen]

I don't and have never watched enough college ball to know whose going to be good or not, so i always have to live on the faith of whomever is drafted is any good.

Ainge has preached about needing great players, transcendent players not just good players. Then he lands the number 1 pick in the draft, his BEST free chance to land one.....and he trades back.

So logically he can only think one of two things:

1) Fultz is in the same group as 2-3 other players that he thinks will be great players...and he likes one or two of them better than Fultz....

Or

2) None of them will be great, so grab another asset and another good player.

However this plays out will now define his legacy as a GM.

Lonzo is going to LA. Magic just wants to make Lavar sweat.

 

[Captain Crunch]

This is a fair trade for both sides, Celtics get two lotto picks for one, while Philly gets their guy.

 

[d3323]

So if the lakers and nets are both trash this year again, it's not out of the realm of possibility that Celtics have both the 1st and 2nd pick next year?
And y'all are saying this is a bad trade for the Celtics?

 

[O.T.I.S.]

I don't think it got shyt to do with Magic or Lavar. Talk to Lavar now he hasn't changed his stance.

I think it has more to do with them not trying to lead on that they are getting Lonzo. Bigging up Fultz workouts over Lonzo or even Jackson is just so whoever is in front of them will try to get Fultz first instead.


Lonzo is a winner at HS and collegiate level which is one thing that can't really be said about Fultz or Jackson. Thats the main thing that stands out to me. Yeah you can put numbers up on a decent team and lose... But can you be the main ingredient on a garbage team that turned around and became one of the top schools in the nation, leading the entire NCAA in offense and assists, break records held by Jason Kidd himself, set records for a school with major history, and do it all in one year?

Only stain was that tournament loss where he got injured and was having offcourt issues.. Which he never made excuses for. While Fox was trying his hardest to have the best looking game of his NCAA career so he can raise his stock... Which he did. But even despite that performance, people seen what Lonzo can do. He filled that UCLA arena and brought them dudes back to relevancy while Kentucky always has a good team. If I'm Magic, I'm looking for a guy that can put asses in seats and win at a high level while making underachievers overachieve. Theres only one player in the draft imo that can and has done that before

If Lakers are somehow decent, the Celts get Sactowns 2019 pick. And it's doubtful they turn it around anytime soon.

People have hyped up Danny Ainge's trading ability so much, they get upset if he's not completely fleecing someone. It seems like a good deal for both sides(especially if Boston likes someone better than Fultz).

The media loves Ainge for some reason. Don't know if it's because they have a relationship with him or what
