I'll believe all this Boston is next! stuff when it happens. Do people not understand how terrible the East is? It's allowed average players like Avery Bradley and Al Horford to think they are relevant stars. IT, who was absolutely abused on D last night and is a net negative against the right match ups, considers himself a superstar. It's dumb.

I don't care what pick the Celtics get as long as Josh Jackson falls to them.

There's no Kelly Oubre on the Cavs to hide Thomas on. I bet he spends most of his time on J.R. or Korver. In which case I'd run those guys off as many screens as I can.

But at the same time, he can spend the whole series torching Kyrie.

Their best chance to steal a game is game 1....maybe the Cavs are rusty and goof around too much. Outside of that or a LeBron injury they don't have a chance.

I just don't like watching Drummond and Jackson play that much. Maybe they can get a high pick though. I don't root against them, I just don't think of them much.

LeBron is going to swat his shit at least once or twice a game.

Yeah he wants to be a Laker and isn't a better player than Fultz. Why force it? Although you could argue the Celtics pick has a chance at East supremacy for the next several years where the Lakers...do not.

I wouldn't be surprised if they traded their pick or picked Fox.

If they pick Fox that would just be Dangelo Russel all over again. Lavar is annoying but the people who are taking Fox over him because we don't know who his dad is and he went off in the final four don't get it.

Fox is going to be good. So is Ball. I think it just comes down to fit.
