In Tuesday's chat, Chad Ford says the Nets are among five lottery teams "open to trading their pick", noting the Celtics seem desperate to get into the first round. Ford also suggests the Nets would be open to trading Vince Carter and proposes a trade with the Wizards: VC for the #5 pick, Mike James, Etan Thomas and Darius Songaila. And if the Nets don't take Tyler Hansbrough, Ford says the Pacers might at #13.
