Of all the trade rumors being bandied about, I'm most
excited about the McDyess rumor. He is 6-11 with long arms,
incredible athletic ability and, although a natural power
forward, certainly can play some center if asked. He has a
nice touch and fadeaway jumper, although his offensive game
still is a bit raw. He is young, but a proven commodity, and
if we time things right (and you know Pitino will) we should
be able to sign a free agent next summer and then resign
McDyess for the big bucks he'll demand.
I'm sure McDyess would cost the 3 and 6, plus at least
Williams, but I'd do it. Walker and McDyess would make up
the best young forward tandem in the league and would
dominate the boards.
I don't want Kemp, although I understand the interest. He
is, after all, an incredible talent. Jayson Williams alone
doesn't interest me, but Williams and Jackson would be OK.
If we keep the picks, I hope Billups is there at 3 (I can't
believe Philly would pick him), which would leave us with
oen of: Van Horn, Mercer or Thomas, at 6. That would be a
great haul.
Anyway, thanks to everyone for all the great information
lately. I can't wait till next Wednesday.
