Oh, absolutely. You have to do it draft night. If the draft shakes out
like it is projected right now (probably unlikely), and you're left
staring at Marcus Williams or Randy Foye, then I'd jump all over this
deal. I like Arroyo -- he's maybe the perfect complement to Delonte --
and you could target someone like O'Bryant, Sene, Cedric Simmons, or
even a Ronnie Brewer with that 11th pick.

The problem moving down to No. 11 is that if someone slides -- Tyrus
Thomas! -- you'll no longer have the ability to take him, and Carlos
Arroyo is not worth the difference in talent. Maybe if they could do the
deal on draft day if no one interesting has slid to them.
