Following potential 2012 draftees

Remember when everyone was sooooo excited to get BIG LOW POST ALL TIME NUMBER ONE for draft picks and cash (essentially, since Minnesota didn't really have to take back anything)?

Woah, Big Al for cash and both of Houston's first rounders??


I would ****ing lose it from excitement. We could probably package both picks and a player for a 7-10th pick at least. Not that we should, but hey, just some food for thought. Maybe we could get crafty, and trade someone like Burks + Meyers Leonard (if we hypothetically draft him) for a 5th overall pick, I dunno.

I guess I don't know the value of the draft picks we'd get. Like are they Houston's picks? If so, they're probably around 13-18 which isn't really great......Getting rid of Big Al is the best thing about this hypothetical trade. We COULD package the picks and then they'd be worth it.
 
I'm going to attempt to generally respond to recent posts. If I miss something specific, let me know.

- One of the first things I thought when I was told the Jazz were not that interested in either Lillard or Marshall, was that it could be mis-direction .. thereby making that piece of info almost useless.
- However, tonight I heard the Jazz ARE targeting a PG outside of the draft. Trying hard to get the name .. again, COULD all be a smokescreen? I tend to not think so because we currently have no pick .. but who knows.
- Do not know who the 'other' team was/is aside from HOU.
- Sorry for the confusion re: Al. It was neither of the two options outlined here. It was that the Jazz were trying to deal Al as part of a deal for the 1st round pick (no idea the rest of the deal), team didn't want Al .. but wanted Sap .. Jazz said no. Jazz proposed their cash plus a couple of futures for their 2012 (I believe this was proposed to the 'other' team, but don't know that for sure). I hope I said it right this time, but it's been a long day, lol.

Tired. Back on a plane at 11 and hope to get some more info. I truly enjoy talkin' ball with y'all.
 
If we know we're talking to Houston and know we're targeting a PG, then Lowry and Dragic both seem very likely. As mentioned by others, Philly seems like a possibility for the 'other' team, so maybe Holiday is our target. Not sure how I would rank them, but I'd be very happy with any one of these three over Harris.

And from your posts, PKM, it sounds like Al was involved in attempts to get a pick? So what are we offering for our target PG? Harris? Sounds like we're talking two separate deals. And it sounds like we offered Al for a 1st to the 'other' team, cause I'd like to think Houston would want him, which makes me believe Houston is the team we're having PG talks with...so who would we prefer? Dragic or Lowry?

Lowry by far. Dragic is good, but Lowry is very athletic and strong.
