Durant declares for NBA draft...
That would make absolutely no sense for Celtics to take Durant over Oden.
You still have a couple prime years in Paul Pierce and even in his decline, I figure he'll still be a great 2nd tier option. Even if you do decide to draft to draft Durant, where are you going to trade Pierce and his albatross contract for near-equal value? Al Jefferson is going to be pretty good, but his game is more suited at the PF position, and he has the potential to be severely dominant with an adequate C by his side, let alone Greg Oden.
Look at Beantown's history. When you guys had great centers, that equaled championships. Bill Russell, Robert Parish.
A team that should take Durant would be a team like Milwaukee or Charlotte, who badly needs a player with excellent inside-outside skill. Teams that don't have a lack in big men.
Boston does. Other than Al Jefferson, you have.....Theo Ratliff.
