For example, Lebron saying Shabazz Napier was his favorite pick in the 2014 draft.

I once proclaimed The Simmons & Embid duo was going to be more dangerous than Stockton & Malone.

I thank him everyday that he canceled his workout with the Celtics. A world with him instead of JT would have been tough.

A lineup with Book and JT would be absolutely disgusting, McDonough was really just the worst GM. Celtics legend for that move

He was such a Danny Ainge pick too

He was the same archetype as their number 3 pick the year before, Jaylen Brown. An unfinished wing that had loads of untapped potential but was fairly raw. He later took Langford which kind of fit that profile too.

I'm just glad Jackson canceled that visit because after the draft they said Tatum was their pick 100%, but who knows the validity of that especially how it was revealed after the draft and there were rumors that Boston was atleast interested in Jackson some bit.
