2015-We have our pick and the clippers next year. We also have Phillies pick from trading Jordan Crawford if its not in the top 14. It probably will be but otherwise it turns into 2 2nd round picks which are basically useless barring some unforeseen sleeper. But normally 2nd round picks don't make it.
I feel like we can turn our pick and the clippers pick into a center somehow. Next years draft is deep where we don't need a top pick to do that either. The clippers should be good and that should amount to a late pick. The chances of the clippers stinking it up are very slim especially with doc rivers riding those guys. Our pick could be anywhere from the top pick to anywhere really.
2016- we have the option to swap with NJ. NJ lost pierce but still have Lopez, Deron WIlliams and Joe Johnson plus an assortment of vets on their bench which should equal a playoff team for the next couple years. We may not even use that option but it's there. Nj could be bad. We also should get Cleveland's pick in 2016.
In 2017 we just have our pick
2018-we have our pick and nj's pick unprotected. Hopefully we'll be good by then. But nice option to have if we plan to go with Smart and let him grow here. We could strike it big in 2018. This is a contingency plan though to me not what we are trying to do. All in all it might just be a really nice thing where we get a stud player for nothing if we just continue building. Dynasty...... I definitely wouldn't bank on this. NJ could still be good so could we but more than likely we are going to get something good here.
I think the Celtics are going to make a splash next offseason though. I think we are going to get someone. Whether it's with Wallace's contract or through the draft or both. I think we will get a couple guys to go with our current group.
I think Dwight Powell and Thornton will be gone. So will Wallace and someone else. We will have 2 much better players by next offseason and be ready to make a run until 2018 when we hit that extra gear and keep it going. The draft is going to impact us tho ugh. We have 4 picks in the next 3 years.
