    With alot of rumors surrounding some players in the league, draft day looks like it's going to be a swap shop out there. Which teams do you think would do something drastic on Draft Night?

    Its been told that Cleveland's guard/forward Ira "Air" Newble wants to be traded. We could easily get a few 1st rounders and maybe Kobe for him on draft-day. =O

    1.) Honestly, I forgot Ira Newble was even on the Cavs. He plays less than Damon Jones.2.) He has a nickname?

    We saved Ira for the finals.. But I guess he was hurt. So we couldn't we use him to sweep SA. Damon Jones has also asked for a trade. :no1:Ira is fresh to def. He makes Jordan look silly. :flex:

    The celtics are definitely looking to make a deal on draft night if the right pieces don't fall to them at #5. I think that if they don't get either Brandon Wright or Al Horford, they are going to be trading their #5 pick.Also, the Spurs have the #28 and #33 pick, so they could possibly trade up for a higher spot if they wanted to.

    Boston. I don't think they're satisfied with the 5th pick. They're probably gonna be stuck with Yi Jianlian, and I'm not sure they really want him.

I don't see us taking a project 4 who has questioned work ethic.... oh yeah, and he weighs less than Gerald Green. I think that if we keep #5, assuming Wright/Horford go 3-4, our guy is either Yi or Jeff Green.

    Ive heard the Sixers are trying to move up so they can get Jeff Green and Spencer Hawes. So we should lookout for them.

    lol, I laughed at Newble asking for a trade also. He better be glad he's on a roster, no one will probably want him.

    I think Atlanta will make a couple trades. You might see the Wolves trade their pick for a veteran player...I can see Chicago and Boston making a trade where they swap picks(and Boston obviously gets something else in return). You never know, nobody couldve ever predicted last years draft...

    I expect the Jazz to do something with their pick if there aren't any big guys left on the board. I also think Atlanta will move down from 3 to get Conley.
