Yes Derren, you are driving me terribly crazy with this. Like I said before, he may not be a great center in this league but no team is gonna trade their #1 lottery winner no matter what picks Danny offers. The fact stands that Bogut is going #1. #1 is the very toughest a team can acquire on draft day. The pick last closest to that (Chandler at #2) got dealt for Elton Brand on draft day. Before that, Mcdyess as a #2 got dealt for Brent Barry #15 plus Rodney Rogers who was still very young at the time meaning a team could ask Perkins or Jefferson/West plus a pick of the celtics close to 15 to even get the 3rd selection (Felton). But Bogut is going #1.

Look, I know its not likely we'll be able to get our hands on Bogut. But until the draft comes and goes, I will continue hoping for the unlikely to happen.

And about drving you nuts--well, I guess that's one of the perks I get for wanting Bogut. ;D

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.
