xman Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Houston has pick 8 but it looks like the pick is too low to get what they need. So, they might prefer to trade the pick. What kind of deal could be worked out? Houston has several assets to deal: #8 #32 Luther Head: #24 pick has really developed into a nice swing guard that can backup PG and SG A PF - either Juwan Howard or Stromile Swift Possibly Alston The RealGM post was talking about dealing MWilliams for a pick to get MWilliams the PG. Maybe something like: MWilliams for #8, #32, LHead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdunkndunk Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I'd rather deal Josh Childress for the 8 pick than Marvin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Quote: I'd rather deal Josh Childress for the 8 pick than Marvin. Agreed. And I think that is a doable deal. However I think the Hawks would be targeting O'Bryant, not Marcus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xman Posted June 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Houston might also like to get Al. Would Swift have any value to the Hawks? Or, forget players, what about #8 and a lotto protected #1 (or #32 and a player) for #5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrywest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I wouldn't trade Marvin for the #1 pick of this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teeareess Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Quote: I wouldn't trade Marvin for the #1 pick of this year. Ditto. Way too quick to give up on him, and the draft is not that top heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exodus Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 But would you trade Childress for #8? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xman Posted June 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I thought it might not be enough for MW. Tmac is sticking at the 3 in houston. So, could Chill play the 2? or Smith/Harrington play the 4? If so, what is a fair deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member sturt Posted June 2, 2006 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Seems much more likely that BK would trade down to #8 with his #5, if indeed he is as PG-focused as many maintain he ought to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Houston would love to move up for Roy or one of the PFs. What would it take? Houston would love to do #32 and #8 for #5 - but it doesn't seem like enough. #8 and a lotto protected #1?

DJlaysitup Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Couldn't we find out what they want and tell them what we want and then trade post-draft (and also get something extra from them)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyman3 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Quote: MWilliams for #8, #32, LHead? thats a horrible deal for us. Marvin Williams has the trade value of a #1 or #2 pick in this year's draft. Josh Childress for #8 pick is fair; but im willing to be that any team w/ the 8th pick will take his chance of getting lucky in the lottery (and gettin a better player than Childress) rather than taking the already established NBA role player Josh Childress.

exodus Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Remember that Childress was at the top in the league in fg%. He can shoot the 3 and take it to the rim. His weakness offensively is that he can't create for himself but he can play off McGrady and Yao. Houston is looking to win now and I can see them taking Childress instead of an unproven rookie. The fact that Diaw blew up with the Suns certainly helps our cause in trade talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xman Posted June 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Can Chill guard most SGs? If so, then it might work. What about the other option - trading down from 5 to 8. What would be fair value? a lotto protected #1? #32? Swift? LHead? #8, Swift, #32 for #5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Marvin williams is worth waay more than that.. i think after this coming season many people on here will put him at the top of their untouchables list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted June 2, 2006 Moderators Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 Quote: Can Chill guard most SGs? If so, then it might work. Childress doesn't have the footspeed to hang with fast shooting guards. He wouldn't be the worst defensively but he just doesn't have the quickness to be nearly as good defensively at SG as at SF, IMO. He has played a pretty good amount of SG for the Hawks, though.

DJlaysitup Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 What with Diaw doing what he's done this year you gotta figure that other teams would love to get their hands on Childress. I'm not recommending a particular trade, but would think there is some value there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deester11 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I agree. Why is it that many here want to trade Marvin after one year in which he did show good skill sets. Oh I know...he didn't win Rookie of the Year. Who cares? Marvin is going to be the real deal and I don't think his season was bad considering that Harrington was there.

DrReality Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I think Childress's worth is far more than his face value. Meaning that he is like the binder in the paint. I think hecomes in and makes the other players better and plays defense. I don't see the Hawks turning loose of him easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
