Trading Pierce For A Draft Pick And Player(s)



You could trade Pierce for a high draft pick and a quality player(s)
depending on which team you're dealing with.

A look at the lottery candidates:

 Orlando drafting very high, but they have McGrady and like the Celtics
need a biggy. Pierce, Mihm, and the Celtics two picks
for McGrady and Orlando's pick? 

Phoenix seems to be in the Kobe sweepstakes, but perhaps Ainge
could take a shot at a Pierce and the Celtics pick for Marion and the
Suns' choice.  Seems like you can get more for Pierce.

Charlotte has nothing the Celtics would want.

The Hawks have less than nothing.

Pierce et al. to the Warriors for Dampier, Van Exel,  Richardson, 
and their draft pick?

The Bulls. This may be the best possibility. The Bulls clearly need
an impact player and they seem intent on rebuilding once anew.
Curry and  Chandler are definitely available.
And the Celtics seemed to have a strong interest in Hinrich
during last year's draft.  With the Bulls pick, they.could take someone
like Emeka Okafor or Pavel Podkolzine or Dwight Howard,
or perhaps Josh Smith or Luol Deng as a Pierce replacement.

Washington definitely needs an enema. But who would
you want?  Gilbert Arenas and their pick for Pierce?
Stackhouse and the pick? Kwame Brown, Arenas, and
the pick for Pierce et al.?

Miami might be a possibility. Could you get Dwayne Wade, 
Grant, and their choice for Pierce et al.?  Eddie Jones, Caron Butler,
 and their pick for Pierce and others?

Portland, as previously mentioned, has Randolph.

So, there seems to be some definite trade possibilities.
