Celtics took shots on Larry Bird, Danny Ainge

The subject was the number of picks the Celtics have in tomorrow’s draft and whether that gives them more of an opportunity to take a chance on a player with injury issues or an overseas commitment.

The C’s could well make a trade that alters all this, but as it stands now, they have the 16th, 28th, 33rd and 45th overall picks, two in each round, and it would seem they are well-poised to take a risk or two.

Danny Ainge doesn’t necessarily see it that way, which, as we’ll soon explain, is more than a little odd.
