    If he trades our pick it will be for john wall or evan turner or 3 second round picks who turn out to be hall of famers.

    Here is what I'd do with the pick...

    Trade Budinger and the #1

    for

    Ricky Rubio

    then sign Mike Miller with either the LLE, or a portion of the MLE, to replace Bud.

    Reasoning - The #1 wouldn't play much anyway unless some major injuries happen so why not pick up Rubio now and let me him get another year in the Euroleague so he can READY for the start of 2011.

    Options - It allows you to hold an incredibly valuable asset for the summer of 2011, that asset could be either Rubio or Brooks depending on what other teams are looking for. Kahn is so overmatched that he won't know what to do with Ricky so Morey could do some major damage in this deal.

    I wouldn't mind that. As long as we can make a trade to get another point guard for future picks and or players.

    Oh man I'd go crazy if Morey could somehow find a way to trade up to #2.

    Mike Miller's not signing anything less than the full MLE

    Maybe but with all his injuries this past year I don't see anyone giving him the full 5 years however 3 for 15/16 sounds fine to me.

    I wouldnt mind because I dont see much time to develop that pick next year because we are coming in stacked unless we would draft a 7'0" shot blocker.

    Really? Guy shot 50% and 46% from 3 point land while grabbing almost 7 boards per game and even 4 assists per game...I don't call that a waste of money or time. His only issue this past year was his health, which should keep the price down, but before that he was pretty healthy.

    I expect Morey to trade up in the draft, or trade this year's pick with ?? in a deal. I'll be astonished if he stands pat.

    Agreed. That's why there's no emphasis on tanking.

    I would be happy, because Morey always makes crafty and ultimately positive moves.

    I dont mind if he trades the pick for a great player, maybe a center, to backup Yao.
