what the fuck denver :-\

Exactly what I was thinking you don't make these kind of moves within your own conference.

you do if you're in cap hell and the only team willing to help you save money is in your conference.


You tellin me that a 2nd round pick from the Clippers was the best offer they could get? Donnie Walsh is in big trouble with Zach Randolph.

Depends on what you mean by best. If their goal was purely to dump salary then I dont know how they could have done much better than that. Sure, they most definitely could have gotten more talent for him, but they would have to pay double for that talent due to them being over the luxury tax threshold.

they could've at least gotten a number 1 pick for him and a sent him off to a team that wouldn't be fighting with them for a playoff spot. LOL

Yeah exactly. They just did a charity job to a team they'll be fighting against for that 7-8 spot.

How many Eastern Conference teams are far enough under the cap and have a need for Camby?

How many teams had the cap space to facilitate the trade AND were willing to give up a #1 pick for him AND wanted or needed him? My guess is no team had that combination of factors at work and thats why they sent him to LA for a 2nd. LA knew they were desperate to shed salary and gave them a way to do it while addressing a need.

^I dunno, man... I know for a fact that there were other teams with felxibilty willing to take on Camby's salary. I mean, shit, this is the defensive player of the year we're talking about, no slouch. It's hard to believe no one woulda' offered a 1st round pick if he wasn't shopped around a little harder.

What teams have the cap space necessary to facilitate this type of deal? Before the deal happened, there was the Clippers, Warriors and who else?

this trade is a shocking mishap on denvers front office in my opinion. Camby was a huge trading chip on so many levels, as was the case he could of been used to dump salary for a couple of first round picks or they coulda got a player or 2 back in return.

terrible terrible trade for denver.
