Philly pulling ahead in race for the 3rd pick?

I feel like I’m trying to keep track of a 29 horse race being run in a hurricane and fog (don’t Neil deGrasse Tyson me here.. I’m trying to set a scene). As we try to figure out where the Celtics cadre of picks may be disseminated, a number of teams seem to be vying for Danny Ainge’s attention. Once again… Philly seems to be the team…

Sources: Sixers have had significant engagement w/ Boston (3), Minnesota (5) Sacramento (8) in past 24 hours. Boston talks continuing now.

//platform.twitter.com/widgets.jsLet me just say… If the Celtics can somehow flip 3 into Noel and Robert Covington and 16 + 23 into Middleton and Greg Monroe, the Celtics will have completely re-shaped their roster while still having money to spend on a max free agent.

How can that happen? Don’t ask me. I’m way too dizzy at this point to fully realize how ridiculous that scenario is. All I know is that’s a lot of names and a lot is going on.

Stay tuned.
