Crazy Ideas about Draft moves for Pels

Stuck in traffic in Beaumont, TX so naturally reading PT and listening to NBA radio. Eddie Johnson just pitched that the Clips need a larger size 2 that can "defend" multiple positions and can create offensively. I know Evans doesn't particularly fit that mold perfectly but do you think they could be a possible trade partner (perhaps for their late first)?
Also read that the Knicks want to trade the 4th pick for a vet. Think Ryno can be shipped there with some help? We can then take WCS at 4 and have him be our backup 5 until he's ready to start...
I know it's HIGHLY UNLIKELY that this could and will happen, but figure it was worth a discussion.

I remember CP3 getting mad at MT5 for being a ball hog and doing stupid things. He would hate Tyreke. Not to mention if they say they want a bigger 2 I assume it's about defense, not the ability to shoot over defenders, and Tyreke doesn't really help you on defense.

This year is crucial for the Pelicans. They need a draft pick, and they really screwed that up. They need to trade for a pick in the late top 10 to try to snag either Willie Caullie Stein, Sam Dekker, Kelly Oubre, or any other SF or C prospect.

If we trade into the top 4 picks, we aren't drafting a backup center. There is a unanimous top 4 players in this draft Willie Trill isn't one of them

I think Stanley Johnson could fit that Bruiser role being talked about. 6'7 and 240.... Guys built like a tank and is an athletic freak. He's not like aminu in that he already has the NBA size and strength, not just the measurements

I like the idea of trading into the draft but I think your looking at the wrong target.
We go after the Kings pick at 6 and offer Ryno + next year 1st and we draft (in this order)
Winslow
Stanley Johnson
WCS
Winslow and Johnson both look like the next big lock down defenders in the leage and Winslow just has a better offensive game than Johnson at the moment.
WCS would be a perfect partner next to AD and would allow us to remain big and still switch the 1-5.
Or we go after the Pistons 8th pick and try and just trade Ryno +this years second for it. And then go after any of those guys left.
If none are left I think Hollis Jefferson and Henzonja are worth a look as well.
