    There have been talks of trading for an SG and drafting a PF such as Shelden...

    but,

    Would you trade our lottery pick (including a player(s) to fit salaries) for a player such as:

    Al Harrington
    Jason Richardson
    Paul Pierce (longshot)
    Ben Gordon/ Hinrich
    Peja Stojakovic
    Ron Artest
    Maggette
    Marbury ( I know you wouldn't)
    Zach Randolph
    etc. etc.

    Here's my generic answer to any pick, any trade, any kind of signing: CAN THE IDIOT SHOOT?

    yes. then sign
    no. please go away.

    Random stat: Chuck Hayes played 3 minutes without a rebound. That's the most minutes he's played in a game this season without grabbing a rebound.

    Nevermind, I get your points... I probably wouldn't if i was the other team. Looks like we're stuck with our junk. :(

    Al Harrington and Corey Maggette is possible if Rockets is willing to give up 1st round pick.

    Uhm I wouldn't mind having some of those players but I doubt those teams would be willing to take our pick for one of those guys. I would not mind trading our pick for an established player but who could we get with just our pick honestly?
