I would go for Kapono for the minimum if we have already filled more important positions. I would not be against simply drafting a knock down shooter also whom would be cheaper. Andrew Goudelock, Ravern Johnson, John Diebler could all fill that role for cheaper.

Also Marvin for #32 and that trade exception http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=3e22vph

I hope I am all wrong and he is going to use that $3 million bucks we sold that 2nd round pick for last draft to get us in position to cause some real damage this draft

Looks like we are just two wishful thinking fools, LMAO. I would take that lineup but honestly I have a sneaky feeling you and I are going to be sick after Thursday night because I think someone really good is going to fall to #18.

I read an article recently that the Cavs are supposedly interested in moving Sessions or Baron Davis and also even JJ Hickson in the right deal. There are obvious reasons they want to move Baron Davis or Sessions because there will not be enough playing time for all 3 Kyrie Irving, Baron Davis, and Sessions someone will be getting played out of position there. In comes Kirk once again, he can play SG and he guard both positions. He has an expiring contract and is being given credit for training young PG's. The deal: Kirk Hinrich for Ramon Sessions, Clevelands trade exception and the #32 pick. http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=3zexh82 This would work for many reasons. Obviously Cleveland is going to have a much harder time moving Davis contract. They are also not going to be able to use that trade exception unless some type of extension is given due to the lockout because the exception lasts a calender year. The Lebron ordeal went down last year in early July. Its looking there will be a lockout in early July and noone will be using those exceptions that includes Cleveland and us. They also have 2 2nd round picks #32 and #54, plus the #1 and #4 picks so they will not be hurting for picks in the draft. Financially the Cavs save about $800,000 over the lives of the contracts but we save about $4 million this year. Hmm, for all those claiming Kirk has this great trade value I am pretty sure he can bring us a second round draft pick and Ramon Sessions.

Because they get Kirk he is a great trainer of young PG's. If you want Kyrie to ever be worth anything you need Kirk.

How much are you going to be willing to spend on him? I don't like him for the Hawks personally and considering he is originally form Florida I think he will make his way back closer to home

There has been a lot of talk about making moves this draft season. So, Sund saying there is probably less just shows he is out of the loop and not able to do anything because of giving up all his chips for Hinrich and he is still skeptical about trading any of the core which is fine. "There's probably less (talk among teams) with regards to the uncertainty of the CBA and people willing to pull the trigger," Sund said Friday. "In prior years a few days before the draft, there's some consummation of trades. There's just as much dialogue, but not much action." Sund is a walking politician/liar. Less talk on one hand. Then more dialogue on the other. Sund just tripped himself up dude needs to learn to say I am out of the loop or don't know instead of feeding a line of BS.

How about we should have kept Jordan and or the 18th pick and that would have more than covered for Jamal leaving and would have been cheaper

I obviously stated that Dwight would then be signed to a contract like Joe's which means a long term max deal you guys just like to argue for the fact of arguing and post to see your numbers improve

Show me where this draft is so weak? Show me how we could not have used Jordan and the #18 pick next year with so few players under contract and a payroll already basically shot. Show me how if the draft is so weak the front office is now saying they will be drafting a player at 48 that they fully expect to make the team and even help if called upon. Show me how Kirk whom we undoubtedly got because we thought he made us better against better competition did his job other than the 1st round of the playoffs. Show me how Kirk helped us get any further than we had gotten the previous 2 years at a much steeper cost. I dont see how it would be a wasted call to simply see what were they thinking that made them give up so much to get so little back. Why is the grass always greener on the other side, meaning why not just sit Bibby and start Teague. Why give Hinrich the job when you wanted Teague to take it. Those are the type of questions I would be asking so I dont see how it could be a wasted call.

That's a joke of a offer. I am not as in love as some of you guys are with Howard honestly because I think we would have to gut our team to get him and they still would probably not do anything with us because we are in the same division. http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=6b5axdh Joe, Al, Zaza, Kirk, and Marvin for Dwight, Gilbert, and Hedo might get them to think twice because we take there bad contracts along with Howard. Howard would then be signed to a max deal like what Joe had.

I would call the entire front office in a conference call and ask what made them make that lopsided Hinrich trade.

Sessions and Jamison for Marvin and Kirk nothing else makes sense unless we are trying to get Derrick Williams or Kanter. http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=5wvwapn

I actually think Jimmy Butler is the guy we should be targeting. He can give us a lot of what Damien can give us for half the price. Keith Benson could give us what Etan gave us for half the price considering Etan did not give us anything on the court and I cant see how he made Al, Zaza, nor Josh tougher in practice. We really need more from the SG position than I think we can get out of Shumpert, Lee, or Leslie, considering we need a backup SG. I also can't get over how people were all over hawks forums arguing about the first round pick not having value now we are seeing the truth. We need players and bodies and would have needed them even if we had kept Bibby as our expiring instead of Hinrich and Jordan. We would have 2 more bodies after this draft if we had not made that trade and not be in any worse financial condition.
