Well watching the NBA lottery in 1997, 2007, and 2014 sucked when the Celtics missed out on Duncan, Durant, and Wiggins respectively, but at least we ended up with the #3 and #5 picks in '97, and the #5 pick in '07 and '14. This year there is no lottery pick to look forward to in June for the Celtics. Sucks that the NBA rules favor a team like the Lakers who hire a horrendous coach and tank over a team like the Celtics that got the most out of their limited talent.
Danny Ainge had a chance at the deadline to secure a lottery pick, but instead decided to make a playoff push.
