Re: draft picks for Terrell Brandon?

["John Lyell" <johnlyell@hotmail.com>]

I didn't say they would take it, just what I would offer them. If they want
picks they need to give me something more than Brandon. Bibby has more
upside potential.
A lot of people put way too high a value for Brandon. I would take a
Tinsley, Troy Bell or even consider a Kenny Satterfield or Charlie Bell with
the Utah pick before I would even consider Brandon. He is just not worth it
any more than Kenny is.Who in their right minds (Well maybe Paul Allen and
Mark Cuban)  would want 2 underperforming point guards making $8-$10M a year
on your roster?
