Ainge will bundle at least two of his first rounders to move higher. He won't give guaranteed money to three guys.
With Hunter playing now, the C's could make the playoffs. Therefore Ainge will likely be picking in the low teens, and might bundle to move up to pick 11 or 12.
You can drool over Okafor and Howard all you want, but Boston won't get them. It is very unlikely that Ainge will be able to obtain the No. 1 or No. 2 pick in a trade. Oh, there are plenty of scenarios, but they are mostly unrealistic.
One plan that might work is to offer Charlotte all three Boston picks in exchange for No. 4, even though you still would not get Okafor. But I'm not sure that Ainge is so hot on a single player that he would make that move. He would rather have two chances to strike gold.

philly pick
does anyone know if there are any conditions on the philly pick? for example, if the philly pick wins the lottery or gets a top three pick, do we have to return it?
i ask because last year, memphis could have been returned their pick they traded to detroit if the memphis pick won the lottery. since the memphis pick came in second, detroit got to keep the pick.
thanks...

It's always nice to hear someone who is realistic about what their team can do.

Telfair very realistically may be in green next year. Ainge is very Hot on him and he is showing in the teens in most mock drafts (that could change though). If that happens we could have a big controversy with Chucky, Marcus and Sebastien...who would be the odd man out? They brought Chucky in as a vet for leadership...I think Marcus would be odd man out, not good for his confidence.

We would have three first round picks which could be used to trade up... more like the Houston/NJ trade in the 2000 draft. If Danny is really high on Telfair, he may get a 7th-9th pick for those three if Sebastian is on that range, or something like it. I fully expect some trades on draft night. At least swaps for future first rounders.

Rick pitino has already recruited Telfair, and Telfair should play in college for atleast a year to put strength in his body.

I think Danny got a thing for shooting guards or somthing especially from Nevada. Somebody said he was scouting that guy kirk snyder. I don't how he plays but , maybe he can draft him and trade paul for the 1st round either emeka or howard. I believe danny can pull it off. I hope he do , we need a big guy if we want to play that up tempo sac town style. I hope we can be and up tempo team atleast 2 years. cause i don't have the patience for this dumb stupid team anymore. They run for the first quarter and than they get tired all of a sudden. I'm starting to get sicc of paul pierce too. He doesn't run , he suck at dunking i think marcus banks can outdunk him. Somthing is wrong with paul he might have some personal issues. On Friday when they play the Pacers i hope ron artest pull his shorts off again. Then watch paul do nothing about that. Why don't he play defense like ron artest . Do the same thing that ron do to him. I think teams are starting to play hard d on him. Cause thats his weakness he can not shoot when people play hard on him, like trenton hassel. You know why the celtics are winning all of a sudden its because of chucky , ricky , welsch and blount not paul. I hope danny trade paul,

Telfair's body isn't a problem. Kid's built himself up to 180 lbs... which is 5 more than Livingston... who is 6 inches taller than him.
And I could definitely see Telfair and Banks working together. Bibby and Jackson seem to do okay up in SacTown.

Um  , even Pitino admitted he highly doubts Telfair will ever make it to campus, he fully expects him to jump straight to the NBA and he said if he's a lottery pick he should, and he's a lottery pick so guess what, he's going in. All the high school kids sans LeBron need to put strength in their bodies and it's not stopping them from going in and it's not gonna stop Telfair. I think college would do him well too but the reality is he's a first rounder he has to go now.

who do you think would be better banks or telfair? I'm not a telfair fan but he is stephon marburys cousin. Im not a stephon marbury fan too. Both are scorers not the quarback type. I rather have banks playing the point. But you never know Danny probably going to draft shooting guards point guards till he finds that right guy to fit his plan. But i do think Danny is going to try to move up. He might trade Pierce because nobody wants ricky. They already have stack full of shooting guards.

Of course, then we will trade him and he will be just like Chauncey and Joe. That would be GREAT .

Totally WRONG..Just Because Telfair is Related to Marbury (Not his cousin), doesn't mean he plays like Marbury. Telfair likely has the best "Court Vision" in the draft (Can I get a Layup?)...He is a True PG and can pass with the best of them. He is probably the fastest PG in the draft..and likely the league. He has AMAZING handle and doesn't turn it over much, unless he tries to do too much.

One of those rare players who makes the others around him better. Telfair posses great court vision and super passing ability. He will find you if your open. Sebastian has superior ball handling skills and penetration ability.

He does make his entire team better by realizing when he needs to take control and when he can allow his teammates to shine.His passing skills are exquisite at such a young age, he can run set plays or take control when a play deteriorates.
