Bulpett at first said we're looking like we're staying put. But then later reported that Ainge is trying to get higher up.

It's not that Ainge wants to stay at 27 -- he can't find a good trading partner.

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.

Is everyone in shock? Seems our pick, Williams, was projected to go in the low teens tonight, so I imagine Danny was surprised and thrilled to see him fall to us at [HASH]27. Rebounder? Check. Shot-blocker? Check. Seems like a helluva pick for the late first round.

What do you who follow college ball think?

The tools are in the tool box. Brad's job is to bring it out of Rob. If he does, we have a beast on our hands!
