I'm pretty sure your referring to this article..

http://sports.espn.go.com/nbadraft/story?id=1392935

In which the Lakers have an interest in Qyntel Woods and are apparently trying to move up inthe draft with probably Horry or Fox.

While I clearly think KT is worth alot more then Fox, Horry is clutch and steps up when needed. This would be interesting for the Bucks who seem to lack those kind of players (according to Karl anyway).

I do think we should be able to get a teens pick for KT, ranging from the 11th(wizz), 13th(bucks), 16th(sixers) and the 18th (magic). I'd trade KT for any of those picks with of course a preference for the wizz or bucks pick.

If the Lakers though are set on Qyntel they would probably want the 6th pick but I don't see the Cavs giving up theirs for Horry or Fox (Fisher perhaps if Miller is out, but I don't praise Derek that highly honestly).

Maybe Medvedenko or a sign and traded Devean Goerge, now it gets interesting. I find it peculiar though that Phil Jackson who is known to have a love for prime PF's would not scoop up a PF in this rich PF draft.

Obviously there is more to this story. This article is very vague. I could it happening if the lakers include next years pick. look:

#28 pick in the draft
2003 First Round Pick
Rick Fox

for

#8 Pick in the draft


Its pretty even. If they gave us Devon George instead of Fox. I would do it (id give them othella too).

why can the lakers get as high as the #8 pick for Robert Horry, a SF playing PF, or even for Rick Fox? And if the Bucks supposedly want to give up their #13 pick for either Fox or Horry, why don't we give them (teams from 8-13 picks) Kurt Thomas? I'd rather give up Kurt Thomas and get a Nene/Wilcox/Caron Butler and Skeeta/ Qyntel Woods, than just sit with Kurt.

Input?

I'm sure Kurt Thomas is worth more than Rick Fox or Robert Horry. Pluse Kurt has a GREAT contract, 5 mil per year, and he's starting Center/PF material, not star quality, but solid starter.

George and the 28th for our 7th what are guys doing you making Layden look good. First you must realize that George won't do what he is doing for the Lakers simply because he is not a focal point of the team he is a token role player that will probably be out of the league in 5 years.
