    That's a hell of a lot to give just to move up 5 spots. I'm not buying it.

    I think if I am Char I do this depending on who is available at #4, Derrick Williams get a chance to really play and they need all the players they can get, 9 and 26 help

    Hearing Denver's 1st-rounder (27th overall) is available 4 teams looking to buy their way into the first or others looking for extra picks.

    and with that I am out for awhile....

    Why not just make it a 3 team deal?

    Cleveland believes it has to get ahead of Milwaukee at 15, but it's possible Cavs need to get even higher to assure Karasev will be there.

    After all this talk, how many of you would be disappointed if we just picked a guy at #10, stashed some Euro Scrubs with our 2nd rounders, and called it an evening? Olshey talks a big game, but doesn't seem nearly as willing to make moves during draft day like KP was. We were waiting for something last year too, and we just came out of the draft with the same picks we had before we started.

    Sometimes the best move is no move. KP made deals, but they weren't always the best. I think NO will make smart moves, but if none favor the Blazers, then we will take our picks. It takes two to tango. If we end up using the pick then there was nothing better available. Oh well.

    I'm sure we are not going to pick all three second rounders. Some will get traded away for future considerations or something like that.

    If it's top 5 protected (the 2014 pick), I'd do that deal if I were the Pelicans.
