    I really don't know whether we should trade Mobley or not. Here are some pros about Mobley that are really worth considering.

    <u>PROS</u>
    1.)He's got a lot of potential. That's like the main upside to Mobley. Despite his lower shooting %'s, you have to admit that he has gotten a lot better.
    2.)He's already got the tools to make him a good player. He's got good range on his shot, good drive, good quickness, good free throws, etc.
    3.)FRANCIS AND MOBLEY Best Buddies. There is not a doubt in my mind that those two will be working together in the offseason. Who knows? After reading the article in the chronicle, I wouldn't be too surprised if Calvin Murphy worked with them to develop a stop and pop jumper that he's always talking about. Mobley got a lot better working by himself, imagine how much better both he and francis will become if they work on their games <strong>together</strong> in the offseason.
    4.)His jack up 18 footer will no longer be a jack up. He's gonna start swacking it and he'll be a lot better.
    5.)He's the spiritual leader of this team.

    Now, would I trade Mobes for Mcgrady? It depends on how big Mobes wants his new contract to be once his current contract expires. If he wants too much, then I would trade for Mcgrady. If he goes at a decent price, then I dont think I could make myself trade Mobley.

    You will not get T-Mac straight up for Mobley [​IMG], a much better deal for both teams would be Drew, Williams, maybe a draft pick.
