I say we package it along with Amir and/or Maxiel and move up. We need quality over quantity in my opinion.

Re: if the orlando pick land at 15 or 16

I don't think so. I think 13 is the latest he will go.

You got
Atlanta
Boston
Sacramento
Portland

all could use a PG. he'd have to stink in the tourney to not keep moving up.

Boston has 2 young prospects at the point, Atlanta is loaded with PG's (Claxton, Johnson and another one whom I forgot), Portland has Jack and Sacramento Bibby. I think each one of the teams you named could use players at each position and not primarily a PG.

Re: if the orlando pick land at 15 or 16

Boston...well, they're going for the durant-oden sweepstakes. I just stuck them as a worst case scenario.

Atlanta: it depends on indiana's freefall. They will be looking hard at Acie. Claxton was a bust. Johnson is a stop gap. Tyronne? if you could get the best PG in the draft at about 13...why would they let tyronne stop them. They have JJ, Josh, Marvin, and Shelden. They could either use a C or a PG but then its the same situation as us but C's around 13...you're looking at a probable role player.

Sac & portland could prolly use a PF or SF respectively. But Sac is picking late.

I agree about quality over quantity and packaging our assets. I would like to see Amir and Maxiel stay with the Pistons, though. I am not opposed to packaging any of the 3 draft picks, as well as Blalock, Acker, or Samb.

If we are looking for a point guard, we shouldn't have to move up too far though.

Pheonic gets ATL pick if it is in the Top 5 (maybe 6) and I think we all can agree PHX may not pick a PG.

Re: if the orlando pick land at 15 or 16

According to this mock draft they have us picking Al Thorton out of Florida State.

Quote:
A super-athletic forward who plays with great intensity. Is an excellent perimeter defender who can bust out for big games offensively
Sounds like he fits the Piston mold.
