Trade it.

Maybe for two first round picks or partner it with a player on the roster for some cap space.

If we get a pick this high, the LAST thing we should do is trade it unless we get something very specific in return that drives us further up the standings. And seeing that this draft is kinda thin on point guards (after that notable exception at the pinnacle of this draft), Willie Warren is my pick out of this grouping.

Man, I wish we could back a few power forwards out of this draft for two more REEEEEAAAAAALLLLLL good point guards. But that's beside the point. If we go to the trouble to trade here, we have to have the best talent on the board as our pick. The bigs that are left are second round material. Let's see if we can draft a gem here that someone else might have wanted a few picks down. That creates a lot of good things. And we NEED a lot of good things to keep the compass on North!

And O'Hara, I second your motion on Diop. This was by far Larry Brown's worst trade while advising the Bobcats mgt. on what would make the team work better.

Trade the pick. No reason to reach on a PG and Orton does not impress me (watched many of his games on TV, strikes me as a guy that will regret leaving early a few years from now).
