With the Celtics offseason in full swing and the Draft approaching, many rumors are flying around right now. A lot of those rumors involve Jimmy Butler of the Chicago Bulls possibly being a trade option for the Celtics. Butler recently addressed that he loves playing in Boston and that he thought the Celtics would pick him in the 2012 NBA Draft. Via Jay King of MassLive.com:
The Celtics actually picked MarShon Brooks in 2011, but swapped him to the Nets on draft night for Johnson and a future pick. Butler ended up going to the Chicago Bulls at the end of the first round, but told Simmons he was surprised Boston didn't select him.
