I hope Ellis doesn't get traded. He's one of the league's best finishers. If his outside shot, ballhandling and playmaking skills develop he'll be an Arenas type of player for sure (only better fg %). I still however think if Ellis were to be traded for a proven elite big man, we'd forget about Ellis because we'd lock down paint so hard the other team wouldn't be able to score or stop inside scoring without a double team. And because of the bigs, we'd draw some much attention in the paint, the guy left open could get all the free lunch they want shooting from outside. If we can't achieve that I'd rather stick with Ellis.
