Will the Nets pick bring a superstar to Boston?

Part I of this three part series looked at the notion that the Celtics couldn't beat Cleveland or Golden State this year.

Fallacy number two of three is that the Celtics couldn’t/shouldn’t possibly give up this year’s first round pick swap rights with the Brooklyn Nets in a trade for a superstar. That pick is seen as virtually untouchable in a draft that is loaded with talent, especially at the top where Markelle Fultz, Lonzo Ball and Josh Jackson loom large. But is that pick nearly the lock to be destined for greatness that is seems to be?
