Here's the thing tho, and maybe I'm wrong, but what Ainge says publicly, isn't always what he's truly tryin to do, ya know? ![Nerd :nerd: :nerd:](/styles/default/xenforo/NTemojis/nerd.gif)
"We aren't tanking". We just blow every 4th quarter lead we can.![Laugh :lol: :lol:](/styles/default/xenforo/NTemojis/laugh.gif)
That said, Ainge tried to land Winslow at 9, but MJ just had to have Frank Kaminsky. (?????). That's a setback for him, sure, but not anything he can't overcome.
I know they only #3 like a week, but they are trending up, as their youth develops. Those other teams, older, with more injuries, etc.
He has a gaggle of picks + cap space + elite coach, and already a playoff team, and a proven track record. Strong place to be.
I hear your example like 33 and 45 for 12. Doesn't happen, I get that. But they can be thrown in for say, 27. Or, stashed overseas. (Spurs MO). Clearly they have less value, but not no value.
