    Yes, trade the number 9 pick and drew, maybe even wizard to chicago for the number 4 and 7, and hersey hawkins (they want to get rid of him because of his riduculous contract). Then get Fizer with the 4, and Miller with the 7.

    the bulls would never do that in a million years!!! unless there is a way to get a top 3 pick (without giving up cato),i dont think we should trade anyone.

    johnny "red" kerr:i'm glad the bulls did'nt draft steve francis.

    dan roan: why!!!!!

    johnny red kerr:because he would forever be compared to michael jordan.

    YES....maybe... eventually. If the Rockets don't like the prospects of their #9 selection and haven't been able to move up or down, they should hang on and pick the highest rated guy remaining on the board with an eye toward moving him later.

    Guys such as Courtney Alexander, Jamal Crawford, or Keyon Dooling are craved by teams picking at the back end of or outside of the lottery.

    It depends. It depends what's on the table.

    Teams NEVER just make a trade because they feel like trading. There's a purpose.

    ------------------
    The more lefties on your team, the better.

    Draft Moiso. Trade Moises.

    Trade or bench Kenny Thomas.

    I'm starting to get a bad feeling that we end up trading down a few spots and take Etan Thomas. Hope I'm wrong.

    NO, It won't happen. They'll have to give too much. Plus we can still get Moiso, which fills our need.

    Yes, I'm afraid they will trade down. And like aelliott, I'm really worried we end up taking Etan Thomas, especially with Rudy and his love for seniors. Sure wish they'd stay where they are and pick Moiso though.

    Cheaters never win. Unless you play for LA that is.
