    Hey guys
    I dont think we are going to get swift martin etc. i dont think we will get a franchise player this offseason. personally i dont really even think we need another one so despretly that we need to break our team up.

    i think we should take a more conservative draft approach instead of trading half the team away.

    the way i figure the draft will likely go
    NJ-Kmart Van-Swift LAC-Fizer Chi-Mihm Orl-DermarrJ Atl-C.alexander? who knows here
    Chi-Miles Cleveland-Pryzbilla Houston-Mike Miller

    so we get Mike Miller at #9 who should be there

    or Miles who could fall into our lap.

    both of these guys could be damn good players maybe even stars.

    Kenny Thomas could still be a fine power forward. but i think we should deal Los and Drew to the bucks for the #15 pick and get Oyediji. he might be a nice player in a year or two.

    then at #38 we get Chris Porter who despite his size i think will be a sleeper. or we could get that big guy from N.Arizona.

    while not getting swift this year is disapointing we dont HAVE TO HAVE another franchise player immediatly. kenny T could be an awesome player too.

    We'd have to take on some salary from the Bucks....I think it'd be more likely we acquire Robinson with the #15, as a throw in.....how about something like: Ervin Johnson, Glen Robinson, #15 for Cato, KT, Drew, Walt Williams (dunno if that works cap wise). Draft OO if he's there at 15, and then Moiso at 9, and you've got Johnson, Moiso, and Oyededji up front. I don't think that'd go down though.

    We need another franchise player sometime. Cuttino IS NOT a franchise player, nor is KT, nor is Cato. I personally am starting to have some doubts on Miller. I don't think SF is a need, we need Moiso to play PF a lot more.
