Answer 7

i thought the kings were trading ron artest for lamar odom

Answer 8

The Heat got the best of that.

Answer 9

Regardless of cash issue, this is a three-way head-scratcher.

Mavs - you could add either Kenny Thomas or Mark Blount, but it is ridiculous to ADD BOTH. Plus this is not a trade fully utilizing the values on Jerry Stackhouse and Josh Howard to get the best return.

Heat - a surprising favourable return, but I strongly doubt they should trade Daequan Cook for Quincy Douby as I believe Cook has much better upside, not to mention Stackhouse could be the odd man in Heat.

Kings - other than receiving two expiring contracts, I don't see any absolutely good value from this trade, particularly on the Matrix to play for a non-contender. Okay the addition of Udonis Haslem obviously accelerates Kings' disposal of Brad Miller, but what I could see is that players in the frontcourt would be unhappy because their minutes are not enough.

My conclusion is simple: a loss-loss-loss situation.

Answer 10

It looks possible but i highly doubt it

Answer 11

I think this is the first trade I've seen where every team involved can be called a loser for pulling the trigger, i mean in trades there is usually a winner and loser but man each team would get worse?

Answer 12

I hope u never see daylight again

Answer 13

Booo

give Shawn Marion + Haslem back to Heat

Answer 14

The Heat would be screwed especially if alonzo got injured again.

Answer 15

thats actully a really good trade on the kings part, but it sucks 4 the heat and the mavs

Answer 16

Every team is receiving a star player....I actually think this trade could work. The only downfall to me is (im a MAVS fan) I don't think we would trade JoHoward...he is a very good and young player.
