Ridnour seems to be creeping back on the radar...

[DavidSomerset]

I don't think he's worth the #11 pick, but what would it take to get him?

Would 11 for Ridnour/Wilcox work?

Would Salim/AJ get him???

Horford at 3

Nick Young at 11

Trade for Ridnour

Call it a day!

Ridnour/Lue

JJ/Nick Young

MW/Chillz

Smoove/Shelden

Zaza/Horford

Nick Young would give us some GREAT energy and scoring off the bench.

That is a nice looking young team, isn't it?

[WraithSentinel]

I hope BK know that Woodson will bench Luke in a New York minute once he see him play defense.

in that scenario, i still draft law/critt to go behind ridnour, not young

we don't need to use #11 on a backup to mr. 40 mins, jj

we already have that backup, chill

[DavidSomerset]

He hangs out around the basket...That's where he gets about all his points.

He can't create his own shot at all...Nick Young would give us the best SG in the draft, and someone who can give JJ some rest.

Marvin for Ridenour and 2008 first top 8 protected, top 3 in 2009.

This would kinda clear up some things for both teams.

I think Lewis is traded and Durant may be a future PF.

Wilcox is nice, but I don't think we need him with our draft fortunes...

[TexasPete]

We could have had Ridnour for Indys pick last season and it was worth far less than today. The pick turned out to be 11 instead of 15 so why would we spend it on him now when we thought it was too much back during the season? It makes no sense and I'm not believing the rumor.

[Nicholasp27]

u wanna give up marvin for anything

[Teeareess]

No way I trade Marvin for that. And no, Durant's not going to be a power forward for atleast a few years. I'd like to try and take either Wilcox or one of Seattle's project bigs in a trade if possible.

[TheDude]

Although Ridnour's defense is bad, he's no worse than Lue but IMO he can setup players better than Lue. I would want more than just Rid for my #11 though.

[Dragitoff]

One thing about Ridnour that BK might be thinking is could Woody's PG rotation be a Speedy for defense and Ridnour for offense? Speedy is your typical, no offense (bad jumpshot)-good defense PG while Ridnour is a great scorer and distributor but poor defensive PG. I know you'd like to have both qualities in a PG, but that might be the logic behind the desire to have him here. I don't know, it's just a thought. My logic goes out the window here, but what if we traded Marvin Williams, #11 pick, Speedy Claxton and one other player for Luke Ridnour and Rashard Lewis in a Sign and trade? We could still draft our pick of Yi/Horford

Ridnour/Lue/AJ

JJ/Slim

Lewis/Chillz

Smoove/Yi or Horford/Jones

Shelden/Pachulia/Wright

It would probably take more to get that deal than that, but just a crazy thought. lol

[Yeti]

When you go back and look at the two games we played against Seattle, it looks like there was not THAT much difference between Ridnour and Lue. Ridnours stats are slightly better for those two games but not that much. So why are we so hot after him? Is he really the answer to our PG woes or just another in the line of Speedy, Lue, AJ?

[mrhonline]

They've played four games head-to-head in their careers.

Per48's:

Ridnour --> 21.4 ppg, 7.5 asts., 3.3 rebs., 3.7 to's, 1.9 fouls

Lue --> 14.1 ppg, 7.2 asts., 2.9 rebs., 1.4 to's, 4.0 fouls

Both players have some major warts, IMO.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

That's why you can't take him seriously in any deal concerning Marvin. He'll give up Marvin for a bag of Doritos and a Yoohoo.
