    As a matter of fact...the past 14/15 slots produced the following players...

    2001 Troy Murphy/Steven Hunter

    2000 Mateen Cleaves /Jason Collier (ughhh)

    1999 Williams Avery/Fredrick Weis

    1998 Michael Dickerson/Matt Harpring

    Of all of the 14/15 picks, Dickerson was actually the most valuable to us being that we used him to land Steve...all in all, this pick doesn't look promising

    Although 1996 produced Peja and Nash, going back to 1992 or so, its VERY slim pickins!!!

    Did somebody say trade up? Good idea. Target Miami. 1. They have cap problems and need bodies. My guess is that simply getting Butler would not be enough. So offer KT and #15 for their pick. Feel free to add DL and the 2nd round pick that they owe us, to sweeten the deal. With that pick we take Amare.
