QUOTE Williams Going Higher Than Expected: Louisville's Terrence Williams could be the surprise of the first 13 picks. Word is Williams could be going #11 overall to New Jersey, but he may not stay there. Williams is something of an enigma; he comes off as open and honest as anyone in the class, but there are questions about his maturity. One executive called him "Ron Artest-Light," but almost no one questions his game. The Nets are rumored to have the framework of a deal with Chicago that would land Chicago the #11 pick in exchange for the #16 and the #26 pick. Sources in New York have said the deal seems to be in place, it's ultimately up to the players Chicago covets actually falling to #11 and that may or may not happen. http://www.hoopsworld.com/Story.asp?STORY_ID=13048 |

I would be more than happy with Williams.
At 11? I'm not sure. But if it gets rid of the 26 pick and any chance of us picking the next viktor krhyapa i'm all for it |

I've heard Williams has a promise from Charlotte that they would take him at 12 if he's there which is why the Bulls would move to 11. Ford was on the Waddle and Silvy show yesterday and said the Bulls are very interested in Williams. I wouldn't be surprised if it were either him or Johnson at 11. I don't think you have to trade up to get Blair so if they stay put, they could pick him up instead if they can't get the deal done.

I'd be pretty pissed if we dealt 16 and 26 for Williams. I'd much rather have Blair and Ellington.

According to Any Katz:
Oklahoma City, Detroit and Chicago made assurances early on Thursday that they weren't dealing their top 16 picks. |

Does that mean they aren't dealing them for a player or that they aren't dealing period? If we dealt our top 16 pick for a higher pick that might still be available. Either way its interesting just how conflicting the reports out there are. It seems like no one has a freaking clue what the Bulls are going to do. Some are saying big, others say Henderson a 2. |

I don't see why a team would say that. The Bulls are going to make some sort of move I know that much.

I'd be fine moving up if we grabbed Blair, but I don't want to see us moving up for T-Will.

I think the only thing that would surprise me is the Bulls standing completely pat tonight and drafting players at both 16 and 26 with no trades. I'd be shocked if the Bulls actually use pick 26. I figure they'll sell it or take a Euro, regardless I don't think they want the guaranteed contract that comes with the 26th pick on there books this year. |
