AtLaS

Well then that is exactly what we should do. Trade down our top 3 pick and get a top 10 pick along with another mid first rounder. This will allow us to get the player we need in Felton and also give us a chance to maybe get Petro or someone else. I'd rather have 2 chances than 1 in this draft. With the unclarity of a Number 1, 2, or 3 pick its just not great odds to risk it all on one of them. Right now, NOONE knows who will be even top 5, it could be Marty Andy-somethin, Paul, Taft, or even Bogut. I'd rather just trade down for more chances and nab Felton in the top 10, then maybe get Petro or Gerald Green with the other pick. I really think BK will strongly consider trading down, unless he is EXTREMELY high on Paul and thinks he can get him with the 2nd or 3rd pick, hell we might be #1. It's just that with ALL the great PG's we SHOULD trade down and still come away with a good one (possibly better), and get another prospect mid-first if we can do so. Either way, I DON'T want Taft, Bogut, or Marty, because all are projects and Taft who may be the most ready is kind of short, but if we take one of them it would be Taft, as he could be great in his first year.

This is exactly why we should get Felton. Thats ALL UNC runs is the fast break, which would mean a LOT of dunks for Chill, Smoove, Harrington and Swift if we get him, he's a much better passer than Paul and he is just the kind of player that would get all of our other players stats, just like J-Kidd. Plus he's a GREAT on the ball defender and an ultimate floor general..

Felton

I agree 100%. I really just don't see that much in a 5'10" Chris Paul. Felton is probably more athletic, he's a much better passer, is an excellent defender, and just makes his team so much better. I have liked Felton over Paul the whole year but I couldn't tell anyone cuz this forum would never let me verify my account, but now I'm finally here..

Paul is more of a score first type PG, but he's so small and I just see a good resemblance of Dejuan Wagner. Having a team player like Felton would set up Smoove, Chill and Harrington so much more and make all of them that much better. Not only that, but think about our defense if we can add Dalembert or Swift (Swift can play minutes at the Center Position, Daly swats everything). And that offense would be like New Jersey or Phoenix, runnin-n-gunnin baby!

Dalembert/Swift

All players are young, athletic, and good defenders. Our only real problem is shooting, but we do have Delk coming off the bench and we could probly trade Diaw for someone who can knock down the J..
