Seems to me that the best way to go is move to #3.

Disappointed is a good word for not getting a good shot at D.Howard, but I am sold on Shaun Livingston. I think that just an addition of him and KMart at the right price would be a good start to a foundation. If Billy K., can somehow manage another higher pick than 17...say 12 or so, I wouldn't mind taking a shot at Josh Smith. We probably would have to give up #17 to do that, but would this be so bad?:

Pick#1 - 3rd Overall, Livingston

Pick#2 - 12-15 Overall, Josh Smith

FA Pickup:

K-Mart

Again, I think this type of foundation would serve lots of purposes, but ideally I think that you get a coveted point, a "potential" superstar (lots to fix, but if Smith shows a little want-to, he could be a stud), and a better than your average Joe Defender in Kmart.

We have to move up. No doubt about it. Additionally, the number three offers so many options if Livingston is not the guy. I hope that B.K. knows more than he's telling us. Which is nothing.
