    The tough part is, we have so few contracts to trade. I've always thought Scoot would go #2 and now it looks like that is becoming more likely, so this may not even be an issue.

    IF.....Scoot were to drop to #3, no way I've including Ant (which they may not want anyhow since they would have Scoot and CJ) but now it's Nurk and almost every other contract you have on the books not named Dame, Ant and Sharp.

    I think Charlotte has wanted Miller and still does but is trying to get us to trade up for Scoot. I think once they're on the clock that they'll take Miller. Then I think we will trade Scoot to NOLA for Zion. I also think that Ant will go to a third team, probably Orlando.

    I still predict that We end up with Zion and WCJ, the Magic get Ant, the Pels get Gary Harris, Nurk and Scoot. We will still have pick 23 either to use or maybe to trade for a player that fits into one of our TPEs. It's a shot in the dark because just about anything could happen. We might even have good deals on the table for Miller despite reporting to the contrary.
