Unless Ainge makes a trade and alters where we draft, we will be getting a pick somwhere between 1 and 8.
One of the top 8 players in this draft will be a Celtic, and that's exciting to me. So exciting that I can't wait to see who it will be. So I need your help to feed my excitement -- name me your top 8 players, and I'll compile all the names and see who we Greeniacs think we'll get.
Please list the players in the order you think they'll be drafted.
Here is my list of 8 players:
1) Embiid 2) Parker 3) Wiggins 4) Exum 5) Randle 6) Gordon 7) Vonleh 8) Smart

I agree with DM. If anyone falls I think it would likely be Gordon

BTW that's a pretty nice top 8! I still think this is a great draft class!

No, I'm looking for everyone's specific order. I'm going to compile everyone's rankings and see who majority of us pick to go #1, #2, etc.

Interesting -- KVal doesn't have Vonleh in his top 8, while Eja has Vonleh at 3.

That's my top 8 if I'm the celtics this draft. And I could swap Harris and Gordon

Yeah, if this was my draft, and we had the 8th pick, I wouldn't be taking Marcus Smart. I'd go with Harris, or even Saric (both guys who aren't on my top 8 list at the moment).
But this list is about who we think will be the 8 guys draft first by the league.

I found the hardest part to be Embiid vs Randle vs Gordon vs Vonleh. I am just not comfortable with Embiids health. We need to try to hit a home run here, but I realize we might not, but with Vonleh I think we can at least get a double. Embiid I am afraid is too much risk for a strike out. I would need doctors like nuts certifying this kid and I want to see him jumping out of the gym and doing one armed push ups. He has had months to heal. I at least need to see SOMETHING. Like when Willis McGahee had a snapped ACL in the championship game and still ran on a reconstructed knee and ran at about 75% speed and clearly had no limp and was progressing properly. I need at least something like that.
