Sounds like Ainge is not high on Okafor Russell or Mudiay. He wasn't specific but it was easy to follow where he was going. Sounded very high on Towns Winslow both Europeans and Willie stein.Also sounded like he likes Kaminsky. Said they have some redundancies that would impact thee pick
Seems to me he like everyone with possibility of being where he drafts. Let's not be to high on the players above hoping some GM drops them into his lap.

Actually he sounded very honest with the caveat that it was highly unlikely wed get any of these players. He was much more discreet with the secondary portion players. He said the draft was good from 1-10 and 20-45
My take from listening is they would be willing to trade their pick and some exsistinh players for a current NBA player
He is a little overrated when it comes to drafting, I think.

He's overrated period. What has he done other than have Garnett gifted to him by McHale? If that hadn't happened he would've been long gone by now.

I think D.Ainge is gonna go after it hard in free agency and the draft and he's gonna get some good players. He's got a team full of pretty good young talent and he's stocked full of draft picks which will all be good trade bait. I've been saying this for a while now that the Celtics are the team to watch out for this off season. Damn it i hate the Celtics.

I don't think Boston's going to do much of anything in free agency. He might be able to pull off a good trade since he does have a bunch of good trade chips.

That's almost the whole draft.
