Celtics apparently really liked their draft strategy from 2014

Last year, the Celtics had two first-round picks. With their first selection, they took a somewhat unconventional point guard. A guy not known for his shooting or ball handling, but rather a tough, gritty defender who opposing players fear bringing up the ball against. With its second choice in the 2014 first round, Boston grabbed a shooting wing known for his excellent three-point stroke.

Fast forward to last night, and what did the C's do with their pair of first-round picks in the 2015 draft? Basically the same thing. Terry Rozier and R.J. Hunter feel a lot like Marcus Smart and James Young.
