Attempted Celtics 2015 NBA Draft Predictions: Swan

 Alright so im aware i have no real credibility & my only sources are through social media, but i still feel that i have a somewhat grasp on Sports. 
Celts in the 2015 NBA Draft are put in a position where Danny Ainge can be aggressive with his moves. The team is young with last year being a surprise in terms of overall scheme for the future.Boston does not have much lottery hope unless some strings need to be pulled but there always ends up being good value at 16 and 28. Three recent examples of this are the sudden emergence of Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green and Hassan Whiteside. 
Toughest part of this end of the draft is that anything can really happen, meaning literally each of the mock drafts i checked out (SI.com, ESPN, Bleacher Report,Yahoo) didnt have a predictable order. Most NBA teams go best avaliable talent, not relying on position as much. So heres the prospects i noticed that floated around 16 and 28.
16th pick-
Sam Dekker
Stanley Johnson
Kelly Oubre
RJ Hunter
Trey Lyles
Cameron Payne 
Ultimately i think Dekker and Stanley Johnson will be gone so i'd like to see the Celts take Kelly Oubre or if still there Trey Lyles. Although neither of these guys are NBA ready, only way you can trade for the Horse is by gathering the ponys. 
28th Pick:
Cliff Alexander
Montrez Harrel
Justin Anderson
Rakeem Christmas
Dakari Johnson
ONE answer here, CLIFF ALEXANDER.
I seriously wouldnt care if the C's took him at 16. This guy is a Monster and will be the rim protector were looking for. He has some similarities to Fab Melo (bust), with some past Academic problems as well as being some serious raw talent. If Kansas had him this March theyre a lock for a Final Four spot. All in all i think its worth it.


No matter who we get were trending in the right direction, GO C's.

Jordan Spieth: You Motorboatin Son of a Bitch

To put it in simpler terms: This kid is a beauty. For the normal 21 year old, being in your final stages of College with your shit semi together is very praiseworthy. Nope says Texas' Golden Boy Jordan Spieth. I don't even really care about how he played Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or even the first 10-12 holes today. Jordan Spieth is a great story and something Golf really needs since Tiger has completely lost it. The 18th at Chambers Bay is a perfect finishing hole in terms of TV ratings with a potential captivating finish (Reachable Par 5) which hopefully can make up for the awful conditions guys were complaining about.
                                                                    "Fuck you pay me"
In my opinion Spieth is on such a high right now, that things can literally only get worse. This is a too good to be true situation. Could compare him to the instagram models with 5,000 likes a pic. I usually ask myself "Alright so whats the catch? Theres gotta be something wrong or fucked up here." Like yeah his hairline's  a little suspect but other than that i have nothing bad to say about this kid. He keeps backing it up playing very simple and mature method of probably the most difficult sport ever, while doing it with a smile on his face and awesome press conference answers. No reason why he doesn't make some noise at St. Andrews, he's just playing that well. He's not like a young Tiger or Phil where they swing out there ass but still gets results. He's athletic but smooth at the same time, something that will translate results for a VERY long time. Im not even going to talk about Dustin Johnson because that shit sucks. And he's going to get his ass eaten by Paulina Gretzky until its time for Practice Rounds in next weeks event. Think Fast. Who would you rather be right now, Jordan Spieth or Steph Curry? Hmmm fuck that TB12
