This is done. #6,#27 and a conditional future first for #3. You look good to get Paul at #4 Lloyd, unless of course, Atlanta throws a wrench in the works and does not take Marvin Williams at #2 (since their two best players are already small forwards).

Not really, Williams is a few inches taller, and more of a pro sized PG. Paul is right at 6', and might have a harder time playing defense in the pros. Both look to be very good players, I'd probably pick Williams first tho, too. Last edited by stevew : 06-28-2005 at 01:41 PM. |

Of course, if Atlanta takes Paul, Portland/Utah takes D. Williams and M. Williams slips to us at #4, that would be fine too. I've always worked under the assumption that Marvin Williams would be off the board, and I'd be shocked if he wasn't. This draft may be the most trade-dominated draft in awhile. |

Paul's also had trouble when playing against larger, more physical point guards (like Williams or Jarrett Jack). |

Wow, I wasn't that excited until I got home and saw ESPN's border on the screen saying "Milwaukee" is up, and "ATL Next".
Eeeee. Go Pacers! |

I just took a look at Atlanta's roster. I really can't see where Marvin Williams fits in on this roster Childress, Diaw, Harrington, and Josh Smith. Who gets the boot? I know by season's end, the Hawks really liked what they were getting from Smith. Harrington was their leading scorer. Childress and Diaw were first rounders last year |

I heard a strange rumor that the Pacers trade for Al Harrington back from Atlanta for a 2nd rounder, and a couple of our lesser players.
Of course, I won't believe it until I see it. |

Pacersfan - if Marvin is the pick, I think that's far from the strangest trade rumor I've ever seen. Only 2 of the 4 small forwards really belong on the floor at the same time & Atlanta ain't exactly in the position of worrying about their 10 deep rotation right now.

Oh, I understand Atlanta wanting to get rid of him, but what about him wanting to come back to Indiana?
He left because he wanted out of here last year. Would he really be able to accept being a bench player to stay here ... again? I'm not so sure. |

I wanted to see Chris Paul in Charlotte. Oh well, they'll probably take Gerald Green now. |

Shit. Utah's idiotic decision got my hopes up that New Orleans would somehow pass on Paul.
Do the Bobcats go with Felton or Gerald Green?

He would replace Stephen Jackson as our main guy on the bench. He's a capable scorer, and great defender. With Reggie leaving Jackson moves into the starting lineup. So, Harrington would again be our 6th man. |

Wow, that's early for Felton. I think they could have taken Green, and then moved up from #13 to get Felton.
I just don't know if I like that. I'm disappointed in the Bobcats. You're going to suck for a while, it's unavoidable. Why not take Green, and hope you got a superstar? |

Early for Felton? There's no doubt in my mind that he'll have a better career than Deron Williams.

For what? The Lakers need a PG that can get the ball to the scorers on that roster. One that can shoot from long range as well. Not another SG. You already have Kobe .... |

The potential spots he could play are SG, and SF. Pg isn't even an option. You have Odom, Butler, and Kobe ... those 2 positions are covered well. PG, and center however ..... |

Ike Diogu would be an interesting pick here for the Warriors, IMO.
