    I'm slightly warming up to the idea, but it can't be the pick and significant players; basically, I agree with what Mustachio writes; though really, I'd rather just give up either May or Morrison and not both plus 9, but only if Westbrook is already gone. The more I read, the more I've really soured on this year's draft, and outside of the top 2, I don't see any obvious breakout talent left. There's definitely going to be an eventual All Star or two picked after 2, but it could just as easy be number 19 as 3, I think; but of them all, Westbrook is the only one I really like (I just don't trust Love's knees after the Sean May fiasco).

    Therefore, I'm all for trading a project for a productive, versatile NBA-tested vet, especially one that occupies the 4.

    If they added in Rodney Stuckey to the Sheed deal involving the 9 pick and a semi-significant player, I'd possibly be more apt to the deal.

    Bonnell thinks we should:

    If I were the Bobcats, I'd at least consider giving up the ninth pick, a couple of players and some salary-cap space to make that happen.

    Why should we consider cap space clearing at the moment? We're at the bottom of payroll chart, while even Mavs and Knicks are not thinking about it, why we are?

    We must not give up 9th pick for cap space I guess.

    I modified my thoughts on this under the "Bonnell is an idiot" Thread. I read on RGM that Scoop Jackson reported that the deal may be Sheed for Crash and May. Now, if that was the deal, and no #9 pick involved, I may consider it. Word is LB is not enamored with Crash's game and loves Dudley. Crash may see less time and Dudley more, so a trade makes sense. Especially if we can somehow get them to also give us their 1st rounder for our 2nd at #38. Sheed at the PF for 1 yr, and then either resigned or $13 mil off the books! If we keep #9 and this deal happens, I would then look at Gallinari real hard at #9.

    this deal seems to have legs. seeing little tidbits on legitimate sights about us trading the 9 or making a draft day deal.


    i understand crash's injury concern, i understand that Brown may not be a fan (even though i can't see how he couldnt be a Brown type player) but trading Crash just has disaster written all over it for me.

    Totally agree with you Mustachio. If we make a trade for RW we dont trade any part of our core.(crash j rich okafor) we were five games out of the playoffs with a horrible coach now we have a hall of fame one. I would be willing to trade our pick and say may or morrison for rasheed if Randolph and Love are off the board other wise i say we keep it.

    welcome.


    how nice would Ray, Rich, Crash, Sheed, Okafor look. I think that makes us a 4 seed in the East.

    Joe Dumars fired Flip... one of the reasons being he wouldnt work with younger players. so maybe Joe could be persuaded to take on Sean May and the 9th pick for Sheed. They get younger and add a high pick, we get an expiring deal that could be the final peice for at least a good playoff run.

    i doubt it though... Sean May is about untradable at this point... unless hes just a throw in to sweeten a deal. and i dont think the Pistons have any single need for Ammo.


    If we have to give up Crash then we HAVE to keep the number 9 pick. If we have to give up the 9th pick...we HAVE to keep Crash.

    I would be all for this trade if it happens (not sure that it will). We had our greatest chemistry and consistency without Crash after we unloaded Touche and ran the Felton/Boykins combo at pg allowing Carroll and Dudley to split the minutes and work with J-Rich giving us some consistent shooting at the 2 and 3 spot. If Crash really doesn't want to play 4 as he said, then his value is significantly lower, b/c the team is much better when he is at the 4 than the 3.

    Furthermore, Sheed would give us a pick and pop option that we lack while having some post offense as well. He also defends the Bosh types better than anyone we have. At the end of the year, we can sign him back for less or let him go, especially if we get a Love or Randolph in the draft (Westbrook is my choice behind the versatile shooting frontcourt player to compliment Mek) who can learn for a year and adjust to LB.

    That said, I doubt this would happen. I don't think we should trade 9 for any reason other than to move up to get a preferred player or back to pick up a secondary option if preferred players are gone.
