Danny Ainge Statue


Let me be the first to suggest that if the Los Angeles Lakers 2018 first round NBA Draft pick turns out to be a Top 5 pick and the Brooklyn Nets pick does not - then the City of Boston should pay to erect a statue at Faneuil Hall similar to the one already there for Red Auerbach.

The Celtics got the Lakers pick for letting the 76ers pick first in the last draft while the player Boston said they wanted all along, Jayson Tatum was still there for them with the 3rd pick. It was a classic Red move.

  1. That's a self serving story every time though - and it's come up in other sports in other drafts too. 'We still got the player we wanted' is what you have to say, for your draftees ego at least.
