Future Celtics?

The annual NBA Draft is only a few weeks away (June 28). The Boston Celtics, picking at No. 18, will have many options to choose from. They can trade the pick to move higher in the draft, they can also trade down or they can stand pat and make a selection. I believe they will make a pick at No. 18. And of the players that may be available to them, I would be a happy C's fan if either of these three names were called by Commissioner Stern. 1.) Hakim Warrick, F, Syracuse. Warrick is an athletic finisher who lacks the outside shooting and ball handling to be a dominant small forward or the weight to be a effective starting power forward. However, the 6-8, 215 pound Warrick would be an ideal forward off the bench for Boston. He can score in the paint, finish on the break and he is a terrific shot blocker. 2.) Jarrett Jack, PG, Georgia Tech. With the departure of Gary Payton a foregone conclusion, Jack would be a nice fit in the young Celtic backcourt, joining Marcus Banks, Delonte West and Tony Allen. Jack is the true point that neither Banks or West is and the C's would greatly benefit from his addition. 3.) Rashad McCants, SG, North Carolina. The Celtics are in need of shooters and McCants is one of the premiere shooters in this draft. Imagine Al Jefferson kicking the ball out of a double team to a waiting McCants for an open jump shot and I'm sure you will agree with this pick. Warrick, Jack and McCants are just three possibilities for Celtic bosses Danny Ainge and Doc Rivers. All three would be solid additions to the developing Celtic roster. When June 28 rolls around, the selection of either of these three players would be welcome news to Celtic fans.
