and as I said previously, POR management has mentioned the importance of getting veteran players for quite awhile now, so this year is no different IMO...and a large part of the talk of "trading the pick" is coming from the coach and not the GM or Player Personnel Director....

I think trading away a top 3 pick is not a wise idea for a team in POR position..any player...even Rashard Lewis, traded to this team is not going to want to come here...POR needs to extricate themselves at leat in part from this mess before they can start to look to add vets like Lewis'...drafting in the top 3 of the draft provides POR with the best chance to do that IMO...
Don't necessarily disagree with you on this but I think Portland management may. The season isn't over and once it is we may or may not find other "stars" who are looking to switch teams.
