I can't imagine what it was.  And again, it makes it that much more mystifying that we made the pick, because as the roster currently stands, it makes no sense.

If Smart was included in there, I will poo a fuging brick...  I just can't imagine anyone wanting him that badly.  It's just weird, it feels like we made the pick with another move in mind, and the other move never came.

I thought Bill was a Clippers fan?

Regardless, something had to have been discussed and really close to completion...  Still can't explain away Sullinger following the Hornets for no apparent reason lol.

Bill is a Boston Homer.

Still not fully disclosed, but we definitely could've used those picks:

According to a source inside the Celtics front office, the team targeted Justise Winslow as high as No. 4, and tried to grab him again when he was still available at No. 9. But a major offer loaded with draft picks – Ainge hinted it might have included at least one of Brooklyn's future unprotected first-rounders – wasn't enough to get the Charlotte Hornets to pass on the opportunity to draft Frank Kaminsky.

"(The future picks) are worth a lot, (but) I think the draft is probably the time where they're least valuable, simply because people get so caught up in players," Ainge said on the radio. "Without mentioning names, there are some players that were drafted at certain spots (by teams) that turned down lots of draft picks that I just don't think was smart on their part.

"But I think our assets have value. On draft day, typically those are hard deals to move. People get so caught up and get so in love with a specific player that that player in their minds becomes bigger than life."
