Easily top 10? If you didnt already know, Atlanta is currently 7th seed in the Eastern Conference. That pick would probably be 14th-17th pick this year.

Well they are actually doing bad with 20-24. But doing "bad" in the East just isnt enough to get a lotttery pick.

Yep the Hawks are a playoff team this year I think. Still could use that pick however. Maybe they'll just sell it like their others?

No where to play him... Hill, Marion, Diaw.

I don't see us dealing Ron to the Suns, anyway. They lack the pieces outside of the Atlanta pick.

Diaw? Pass.

Marion? Pass (for this team).

Banks? Why?

Barbosa? Not happening. I'm not into his game unless he is a back-up off-guard. Either Barbosa would be an eventual trade piece or Douby's dealt.

Strawberry? Absolutely love him, but we already have so many guards. Either he'd be a trade piece or one of Douby/Garcia has to go eventually.

Tucker? Like him a lot, and ditto, only it's Garcia/Salmons.

Even with Tucker/Barbosa/Strawberry, that goes back to the guys already there in Diaw/Marion/Hill.

Also have to remember that Phoenix values character a lot, Ron's being questionable in general, and Ron wouldn't fit in too well with their speed 'ball game. Also are a divisional foe.

Ron wouldn't put them over the top, either. They get more versatile offensively, tougher, more versatile defensively, deeper. But their main three issues are still there - size, interior defense, rebounding.
