Ok, first point. I say, lets not trade our new boys until we see what
they can do. Just my feeling, you understand.
Next, I was a bit disappointed that we didn't choose Battie at the
three, and I've been doing some thinking about it (always a dangerous
thing, bear with me here). Suppose that Pitino might have marginally
preferred Battie over Billups, or if not that, then suppose he wanted to
take a big man with one of these high picks (can't teach height and all
that). Vancouver might have taken Billups, or stuck with Daniels.
Either way, Denver would then be faced with a choice between a point
guard and Ron Mercer, versus the choice they had, Battie and Mercer.
Hypothetically, Rick might have feared that in this situation,Mercer
would go at five, and Coach P decided he preferred the combination of
Billups and Mercer to the combination of Battie and anyone who might be
left at six if Billups and Mercer went 4-5, as was a definite
possiblility had Boston taken Battie at 3. Twisted, ill-explained and
probably way off base, but it might have been a part of the C's
reasoning.
