trade bait for who? I like the Dickau for the 16th idea. I hope that is for real. then we can pick a stud 3 or 4 or 1 if the Yao somehow slips to 3.

Trade bait to get Butler and Gooden or somebody else and an extra. I don't know what the extra is..maybe a second round pick.

Butler AND Gooden? How's that possible? if they want Butler OR Gooden why wouldn't they just take one of them with the third pick? I am confused.

Butler OR Gooden
Think about this man. Grizzlies want Dunleavy really really bad and they are one spot behind the Warriors. The Warriors take Dunleavy, forcing the Grizzlies to take either Butler or Gooden. But, the Grizzlies want Dunleavy right? So they trade either Butler or Gooden to the W's with something else. These deals have been made in the past.
Examples:
#5 pick Ray Allen + cash for #4 Stephon Marbury
#5 Vince Carter + cash for #4 Antawn Jamison (damnit we had to trade Vince away )
