What would you guys be wanting to trade the number 4 pick? JO, #11, Shawne Williams for the #4, and fillers?

You'd have better luck sending JO elsewhere and finding us another pick or young talent.

Sorry man but the Pacers aren't the best trading partners.

JO is simply too old and way over paid considering he is never on the court.

Shawne Williams????????

No thanks.

Sonics need a young player coming back 24 years old or under for the #4 pick. Plus they need to be able to play.

I say if we can't trade up then we should just trade the pick. Honestly there are at least 4 good players in this draft.

We might send an expiring contract like Elson and a second to Indiana for #11. That would help you out by keeping you out of luxury tax range. If not, I think you are stuck with your roster as is. Not many teams are going to take on big salaries in trade this year. Alot of teams are up against the tax and will shop their picks for a song. How long has Indiana been shopping JO? Two years?

We cannot trade Elson this year, he expires.

If he expires on June 30 can't you use him on draft day in a trade?

No, you can't.
