    mind you the higher we move up the more we have to give. just guessing i think that we could move into first with rice's expiring contract, Cato, or MoT as principle. the lottery would probably cost us mobley and/or EG. what do y'all think?

    I went with Diaw. I like the idea of a big (entry passes) point guard who loves to play defense (somebody's gotta love it)...

    How's Diaw's 3 point ability? Playing with Yao will mean he'll get a lot of open 3's.

    We have enough 'young' talent on the team that we need to develop. I'm not sure that the 'give up to trade up' strategy would be a good idea for the rocks. I would like to see us bring in one or two veterans to help mold some of the younger guys...preferably, aTRUE PG and a REAL PF.

    but if we can get rid of parts that we dont really need or are redundant, why wouldn't you want somebody with the talent to one day produce big dividends?
