With the Draft officially about a week away, what are your FINAL thoughts for what we have to do involving the pick?
Personally I think we should first try to get a top 3 pick. I think it's possible. It just depends on who we have to give up. But of course taking back huge contracts might stop that from happening. With the 3rd pick, we'd of course take Mayo and that could be the start of something good in the long run.
We could also just stay at 6th and see who's the best available, but that must be after we've exhausted all possibilities already in getting a top 3 pick.
I wouldn't mind trading down if it will involve taking expiring contracts or a young player with the caliber of Josh Smith or someone similar.
Lastly I'd just like to say that I'm not that all excited about this 2010 run at Lebron James. I mean ya we could save expiring contracts for 2010 and all the marquee players that will be available then, but I just don't know why we're counting too much on that. For one thing I'm not a fan of one superstar running the show. I'd rather we had several young guys this coming season and stick with them for maybe 2 years then acquire proven veterans (not necessarily All Stars) to complement them once we're back in our winning ways.
