I don't know enough about the draft this year to make a fair judgement

I think they trade the pick for a player that can help us now.

If we scout correctly and see NBA ready players then I want us to somehow get another pick. I think Douglas should be traded for a pick in the 25-30 range or a very high second if not offer the low second round pick with Douglas to get a pick in the low 1rst round(20-25). Re-sign Anthony Carter as a backup for VME.

I think TD needs to stay. Torn Labrum and he still was pretty good. In the begining of the year he looked sesational! there was so much buzz about him.

I think the knicks trade their pick for 3 second rounders since they obviously are more successful there anyway.

Yes!!! In a package for Tony Parker, OJ Mayo, or a big.

With all the attention Chandler and Perkins are getting as keys to where their respective teams are now, what team is going to give up even a mediocre big?

Just asking.

they’re always available. mediocre bigs end up wanting big money and then they're handed around the league. haywood, who you’d be generous to label mediocre, came off the bench in game 1 and did some good things for dallas. these guys switch teams every couple of years.

Follow the Jerome James model and I will commit harakiri.

he gets his ass into shape and comes back i bet he'd be willing to sign for cheap. he's a VERY inspirational leader, on and off the court.

maybe, just maybe, anthony mason can get the same results out of james that he did for eddy a few months ago.

Back to the topic - Chicago has 2 late 1st round picks - #28 and #30. We should buy one of these and take a player in a position that we need filled. So it depends who we draft with our first pick. But this gives us another young player that can help us.....looking for a bench player, not an all-star.

I doubt Chicago is trying to do anything to help teams that could be a threat to them, not in case it's clearly in their favor to do so.

The above point and my original post and you're back to nowhere in getting even to smell a mediocre big out of any other teams. It's draft/Europe or nothing for a defensive big. Moz must have some brothers or cousins or something.
