If he holds onto the fifth pick, look for Ainge to draft Yi Jianlian, Al Horford, Brandan Wright, Jeff Green, Al Thornton, or Corey Brewer—all good options, in my opinion. My personal choice would be Horford; the Celtics need size, and the big man brings that.

That said, the pick has been up for sale since it landed in Danny's lap. Trade talks are heating up with Seattle—Rashard Lewis is rumored to be willing to come to Boston if his buddy Gerald Green is not part of the deal. The current negotiations surround Ratliff's contract, another Celtic player (perhaps Gomes), and the question of whether the Sonics will take this year's fifth pick or a future Celtics number-one.

I like Pau Gasol... I think he has more years in him than Marion...and Ainge will feel the need to produce.
