Celtics #27 draft pick - Pt. 5 - would Grizzlies deal #4 pick?

The Memphis Grizzlies are in rebuild mode and possess the 4th pick in the upcoming NBA draft. Their history of drafting the right players and developing them, however, has not worked. Grizzlies' General Manager, Chris Wallace, seems best known during his stint with the Celtics for dealing future star, Joe Johnson, and trading for Vin Baker who was well past his prime and battling alcoholism. Wallace did draft superstar Paul Pierce, but only when Paul fortuitously fell into his lap at pick #10.
