The Magic made some MAJOR trades...

(1/4) > >>

7even:
Rashard Lewis for Gilbert Arenas....

Vince Carter, Gortat and Pietrus (+Cash and a pick) for Hedo and Richardson (+Clark)


They got the better players in both deals imo.

It is, however, not the best idea to shake up a functioning team like that.

Damn that's crazy that they're willing to take on Gilbert's enormous contract, obviously a great scorer when he's healthy though.

Damn, Dwight basically called out Vince & Rashard the other night for their poor defense; letting guys get to the basket & they got rid of them both in the same day.

They did improve, in my opinion. I don't think it will put them over the top, but we'll see in a month or so how it plays out.

D-Nice:
Phoenix is fucking up. They should have kept their core players and resigned Amare

I don't think they could of.

The Suns had been one of the top winning teams in the West year in & year out & they couldn't get to a Final. Amare knew LeBron wasn't going to the Suns & probably figured if he went to the Knicks, LeBron woulda went there with him. Didn't work out as he planned, but he's still more or less in the same situation in terms of winning, plus the huge contract & getting to play under the New York lights in the World's most famous arena.

That Suns team woulda been nice with Amare this year, but if you look on seasons past, they would have won their 50-55 games, then played a real team like the Spurs or Lakers in the playoffs & get knocked out.
