Draft Order -Clips choice?

[Bulldog]

Orlando take Ekefor - no brainer there. Chicago will obviously be after Luol Deng unless they trade the pick (most likely to Dallas). Do the Clips take Howard? They know that they would get more production from Deng, but with Maggette and Q-Rich he is not as needed. I see the Clips trading down for a point guard like Gordon - anyone agree

Yeah, and who cares the most about that 2nd pick - Howard???

Atlanta.

I would not be suprised at all if atlanta traded with the Clippers.

Jaric and #2 for Terry and #6? Terry is not happy in Atlanta and Jaric has proved to be a flexible player even if he is not a top tier player yet.

Perhaps Atlanta may be able to find a better deal for Terry but if they want Howard at #2 then they dont have a lot of options.
