If the lottery goes our way, who should we draft?

Karma owes us. After Len Bias, losing out on Duncan, and Red's recent passing, we are DUE for some good luck.

Actually, ESPN's 5 Reasons You Can't Blame series recently pointed out that the Celtics had such good fortune up until Bias that this run is just evening out good luck from the past.

Regardless, I wish you guys luck on this - first in hoping both guys actually come out.

Heard the other day that we have Cleveland's first pick as well from one or our many trades.. however, that pick is not listed on the mocks??

We traded it to Phoenix for Rondo.

That means we win five in a row at the end of the season, and end up with the 7th pick, which we use on Craven Morehead, 7'3 185 lbs shooting guard from Baghdad Community College.

We traded Jiri Welsch to Cleveland for a future 1st, 2007 top 10 protected. We then spun that pick to Phoenix last year at draft time for Rajon Rondo. Considering Clevelands pick will be in the 25ish range this year, and Rondo looks like a player, that was a good move IMO.

I should really read the whole thread before I respond. Doing so would save me so much time.

LOL. He's actually picked it up a lot, his poor season was the first half dozen or so. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to compare him to Oden and Durant, etc. But I like him as a solid NBA player.

I'd just like to say I was right about him falling out of the first round.
