Danny Ainge tried desperately to get Justise Winslow at the NBA Draft from the Miami Heat. Pat Riley said no. Now the Celtics are playing the Heat for the first time this season.
Danny Ainge wanted him bad. Reports had the Celtics offering up to four first round picks in exchange for the Heat's #10 pick once it became clear the Justise Winslow would be available.
Pat Riley decided Winslow was just who he wanted, and we're glad to have him. Now, Ainge, GM, and the Celtics will visit the Heat for their first look at the rookie this season on Monday night.
