	We'll have to see where the Dallas pick ends up.  If it's 
something like #1 & #3, I wouldn't trade it at all, unless someone wishes 
to take *BOTH* Dino Radja and Dee Brown.  A #6 pick this year isn't going 
to be as good as it was last year, so that's decent trade bait, 
especially if we get a player that's only had 1 or 2 years in the league.

	I like this one better.  However, isn't Brick gone at the end of 
the year?  I think the backup center would be Ellison.  Either way, an 
improvement.
Peace, Love, and Celtic Pride forever
