DBM'S 2007 OFFICIAL NBA DRAFT PREVIEW...

...for the celtics of course.

The 2007 NBA Draft comes at a crossroad of sorts for Danny Ainge. Celtic Faithful feel abused after one of the most disastrous regular seasons in memory. Face it fuckers, we know you tanked.

With only the 5th pick to show, the past week has been filled with three way deal after KG trade talk after inside source. Pretty much, the internet has turned into the rumor mill for sports. And honestly, it seems like a lot of fuss for nothing. In the end, fans always think their smarter then their respective team's bosses and thanks to a thing called blogging (thanks again Google) WE ALL HAVE OUTLETS OF OPINION! So bloggers become sources, and forums become wiretaps and soon after journalism becomes one big circle jerk of bullshit.

What about the Celtic's 2007 NBA DRAFT?

As I was saying, what follows is what I will transcribe into Wiki's 2007 NBA Draft Page on Thursday night.

Atlanta drafts Yi. From a business standpoint it makes perfect sense. Ask a team this, are you prepared for at least 20 million more fans? Reportedly, Atlanta is having a front office civil war over Horford/Yi. Apparently ownership wants the ticket not the prospect. This is also rumored to be the reason the Amare deal got axed. So say Atlanta takes Yi at 3, Memphis makes a critical pick.

It's Conley, Horford or ,thanks to Chris Wallace, Kedrick Brown. They go for point guard, we go home with the 3rd best player in the draft, HALLELUJAH. They BPA? Brace yourself, we take Conley for the following reasons.

• With the exception of ODerant, no other rookie holds more trade value than the number one drafted PG in a PG starved league. If we're serious about obtaining a late first round pick for a highly skilled steal, this is the perfect pick to shop around on draft day.

OR

• We take seriously that Mike Conley Jr. could become a star in this league. Let's not act like PG is a deep position for Boston, Allen Ray scored minutes towards the end of the year. Having 2 point guards who can run the transition like that could be a dangerous thing in the woeful Atlantic.

In the end, we need to look at this class in tiers. Tier 1 are you know whose, Tier 2 is Conley/Horford and arguably Yi and Tier 3 is the rest. Why should we dip our chips lower tiers to fill positional needs? Danny isn't stupid. Conley Jr. is a Celtic and THATS THAT OK?
