Gee you can't fault the Celts for not making ever pick perfect.
But on the Tinsley thing.
1) He is older then any of the Celts picks..so he should be better right now.
2) I don't think he is that great....a younger Mark Jackson. 

I don't think we need to blindly follow the "wisdom" of the Boston Sports 
Guy...
I mean Tinsley shoots .362 from the field, and can't guard anyone at all. 
Talk
about one dimensional. He is just an assist man.

Its certainly way to early to champion him as this glorious pick. I think the 
Celts
and many other NBA teams know about Tinsley, and passed on him anyway.

The Celts have a draft strategy: Athletes that can shoot. Its designed to 
make
them more athletic and help them break down the zone. I think its a good 
strategy.
If anything the Celts need to get more athletic, not pick up a slow footed 
Tinsley.

Personally I think an assist is an overrated stat...
Jason Kidd had what 19 assists vs. the Celts, but his team still lost.

Well we will see about Brown and Forte. I haven't heard great things about 
Forte...
but the vibe at least seems very postive on Brown. Heinhson likes him and he 
has looked good on defense...so I don't think he is another Mosio.
