Fishmike, you're silly. Why would we want to draft, when we can trade our trade assets which makes other GMs drool. **Sigh**
All sarcasm aside, I agree 100%. Marbury and Crawford are nice pieces, but they wont do caca, until we get them that big time talent downlow, and I'm not freaking talking about Zack Randolf and Eddie Curry. I'm talking about guys like Bogut, who Briggs is reminded of Duncan when he sees him. Heck, we even need a freaking Warrick on this team. I'd trade any of our power fowards for him, and he's not even in the NBA yet!!! We need a freaking SUPERSTAR. Marbury is NOT a superstar. He never even gets selected to the all star game. He has had less selections than Allan Houston as a matter of fact. He's an all star calibre player.
I believe Briggs said if we're not picking top 3, he'd rather grab Eddy Curry in a trade for the pick. I don't agree with him often, but I'd agree with that. Eddy (or Zach assuming his knee is okay) have more upside than a guy you're likely to get late or even in the middle of the lottery and both fit perfectly with Marbury.
