The Boston Celtics is not a just team of basketball players, but is a world wide family of individuals who bleed green and follow the team through thick and thin. No such thing as fair weather Celtics fans.

Trade talks about Porzingis, Butler, Paul George, etc, could turn out to be too costly for Ainge. I'm looking forward to our second round picks too!!

We're getting a world class citizen and professional. Am happy with Jayson Tatum.

Phoenix is getting Josh Jackson. Now that I know he's not ours, I'll be critical of him. I don't see Josh amounting to much. He's an athlete who has nice basketball skills. He's not polished, and not a lot of creativity.

He's tenacious on D, and he'll most likely shine there. But offensively, I'll be surprised if he ever averages 18 ppg (I think for his career, he'll be like 13 ppg).

We're possibly banking on getting their 1st round pick in 2019.

Orlando takes Jonathan Isaac with the 6th pick.

IDK, this to me tells me why Orlando has been bad for such a long time. Isaac is not a special talent. He can be a useful player in many facets of the game, but not a real difference maker. At 6, they should've been looking for a player with an elite skill. Malik Monk would have made more sense. Dennis Smith would have been good.

Chicago will have a deadly outside shooter, but doesn't rebound or defend much.
