Clippers want to trade up in draft
Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said that the Clippers would entertain offers to move up in the draft and that the Miami Heat may shop the second overall selection. If the Clippers stand pat, they figure to choose among D.J. Augustin, who is short but considered the top pure point guard in the draft, Indiana's Eric Gordon and UCLA's Russell Westbrook. Arizona guard Jerryd Bayless is expected to be taken by the time the Clippers pick, as is USC guard O.J. Mayo. The pick is also heavily contingent on the status of injured point guard Shaun Livingston, who is still recovering from a serious knee injury.

I really don't get all this love for O.J. Mayo lately, I saw NOTHING about his game that suggests he'll be a great or even good pro. When I see Mayo, I see Marbury, a guy who should be passing the ball and running the offense who thinks the best way for his team to win is by him jacking up 15-20 shots a game at a 40% clip. Mayo is just another in the long line of "hybrid" guards which really means "guys who aren't unselfish enough to pass and are not good shooters" Take Augustin, he knows what he is, a POINT GUARD. There's a reason why Chris Paul, Steve Nash and Deron Williams are the best at their position, it's because they know how to play the position. O.J. Mayo is nothing more than a hype machine, I GUARANTEE you Derrick Rose will be the better pro.

and by the way, to HEAT FAN
You'll know when the Heat are contending for a championship, it will be the day after Pat Riley decides he misses the sideline and wants to come back. It's amazing how that hip or his love for the game acts up when his team is bad. Just take that referee-assisted fraudulent title you stole from the Mavericks and be happy.

I think Shaun Liv. still needs to be given a chance. Especially since they probably won't be able to get Rose. Is Augustin really worth it? I don't think so. Maybe give up on Liv. if it was Rose, but not for Aug., from what i've heard, Livingston has been ahead of schedule considering what he went through. Getting a quality scorer might ease the comeback for him as well. SL is still very young and has quite a bit of experience for his age.

Livingston could be good but he is not the answer. Draft a replacement and then if Livingston works out trade him later.

Riley will never tradt with the clippers they have nothing to offer you can get a Kaman like center from the draft this draft has plenty of center and one has to be available in the second round the only trades are Minisot, Seattle or Memphis everything else is not logical in order for any trade to be susseful we must receive a center and a second round pick..Draft Beasely trade seattle O.J Mayo and second round draft pick, Darft Beasely trade Minesot. O.J. Mayo and second round darft pick, Use second round pick from seattle or Minesot for (C) Ante Tomic, Roy Hebbert, Alex Ajinca, Devon Hardin or Best available (C), use 52 Pick for a stealer Riley can pick winners. Sign Boozer fron Utah. Sign williams to new contacrt and trade williams and Rickey Davis for Hinrich or Best availabel back ups for PG,SF, and SG. O.J. Mayo (PG), Wade (SG), Marion (SF), Boozer and Hasleem (PF), Ante Tomic and ZO (C). That's a playoff's team and rebuilding team.

i predict OJ mayo a bust...and as for rose if he goes to the heat they will at least get an 8th seed in the playoffs next year...i've said it before...if i am wade i want riley to get rose so i wouldn't have to bring the ball down the court 98% of the time...that is IF the Bulls pick beasley instead of Rose 1st...everyone forgets about who was the main man in Memphis in CDR...Rose got half his assists from Mr.Buckets...
