portland trades sebatian tellfair to the celtics for the number 7 pick. talkin about it on espn news right now.

Interesting move. Telfair is quite talented but Portland gets a draft pick. I wonder if they are still working hard on landing AI.

Interesting move. Telfair is probably a better pure point than anyone in this draft. However, it's starting to sound like Portland can get Thomas or Roy at #7. Combine that with probably Morrison and 4 and that's some decent talent.

Portland is really trying to stock up on talent. IMO, this is a steal for the Celts.

Questionable...

Telfair, Ratliff, and a 2nd round pick in 2008 for #7, Dickau, and Lafrentz.

Well, this is a really weak PG class. Rondo isn't really a pure point, and Williams has limited athleticism. I actually think Farmar is the best, but he needs some more experience running the point. If nothing else, Telfair is pretty quick and already has two years under his belt.

I agree, good move by the Celtics, Marcus Williams might have been a solid choice but Telfair was a high school pick a year or two ago who is still thought by many to be a force soon when hes given a starting spot/opportunity.
