That refers to the No. 6 pick, which is currently owned by Cleveland. The hapless Cavaliers have put that pick on the block, and there are several bidders hoping packages of warm bodies, cold cash and picks will be enough to allow them to swim upstream in the draft.

Phoenix had a deal on the table that would allow the Suns to swap draft their No. 9 pick with Cleveland's No. 6. The Cavs owe the Suns a draft pick, an echo from the 1998 Antonio McDyess trade, but only if Cleveland makes the playoffs. In the proposed deal, the Suns would let the Cavs keep that draft pick, and Cleveland would still be high enough this year to land a top-notch power forward like Nene Hilario.

And then there are the Clippers, who are willing to send Darius Miles and the No. 8 pick to Cleveland for point guard Andre Miller and the No. 6 pick. The Clippers, flush with young -- and tradeable -- talent, are also very interested in the Hornets' Baron Davis, a Los Angeles native, and have made offers, which the Hornets rejected. For now.
