from draftexpress...
-A complicated three-way trade involving New Jersey, Minnesota and Memphis, which would send Devin Harris to Minnesota, the #5 and #6 picks to Memphis and Ricky Rubio and Craig Smith to New Jersey.

That would be the best that could happen to us. Then, trading to get the 5 pick with Memphis seems that much more possible. We might be able to get the 5 or 6 spot much easier than the 2. I would like to walk out of this draft with another top 10 pick. Memphis seems like the easiest to deal with.

Agreed, but if he doesn't pan out that market disappears. Thats a risk

I highly doubt Rubio becomes better than Harris.

Yeah, I'm surprised the Nets are doing this when they already have Harris.

It's true, Harris is young and excellent. This would be a risky move basketball wise. Business wise it makes sense. Of course if Rubio turned out to be as good as his best projections, it would become a genius move all around in retrospect.

Because Walsh has a player close to Devin Harris' level...
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

I dont get it, everyone is complaining this draft sucks and then whine about missing out on players in it?

I think the draft hype has everyone's head spinning - and the worst part about it is these players aren't that great.

And exactly who are you proposing that Walsh would trade to T-Wolves that would equate to Devin Harris?

I don't like that deal for Minny - and not sure I like it for NJ or Memphis either.

Is it possible -- a 3 way deal where everyone loses.

- Minny loses (2) very high picks for 1 very good point guard
- Memphis loses out on Thabeet then has to draft 2 other guys that won't want to go there either & they do nothing about their youth problem
- NJ trades their best young player for a kid that is 18 and un-proven

If Memphis does stock-pile picks it could help us in a D-Lee sign and trade with them.

I don't understand this trade business wise either, maybe I'm missing something. Doesn't winning outweigh ticket sales in the NY/NJ metro area ?

I'm not saying they can't win with Rubio. Bust Harris is pretty damn talented.
