With the 2011 NBA Draft about 3 weeks away, much of our focus here at Red's Army.com will start to turn there. Despite the Finals starting-up this Tuesday, many Celtics fans, including myself, have little interest in a Celtics-less series.
So who will the C's take with the 25th pick in this year's draft? Or will they try and use their 1st-round pick as part of a deal? The rumors have already started, and names like Matt Howard, Jamie Skeen and Corey Stokes have been tossed around. Stay with us for all the latest on Celtics NBA Draft news.
