Question

In your opinion, what are the best & worst trades of the 2008 offseason so far?

Answer 1

Worst trade is easy: Camby for maybe a second round pick

Best trade: Jermaine for Ford  

The trade will help the Raptors but not the Pacers.

Raptors will have a front court of O'Neal, Bosh, and Ardrea B

Another good trade: Bucks receive Jefferson, who will relieve scoring from Redd.

Worst: Ed Monix for the washing machine

Answer 2

What up Sarahtin,

i think the best trade thus far this off-season has been:

1)  Portland trading for Jerryd Bayless.  Bayless was the MVP of the summer league- and looks poised to take on the starting position which allows the Blazers to move Brandon Roy over to his more natural position at the 2.  

2)  The Jermaine O'Neal deal - although we'll have to wait and see how healthy Jermaine O'Neal is.

The worst trade is:

1)  The Pacers trading away Jerryd Bayless to the Blazers.  They have TJ Ford (from the O'Neal trade) but they also could have had Bayless.  

2)  Off course the Marcus Camby deal- only for the right to trade 2nd round picks- which Denver could finish worse than the Clippers- which in effect would have not have been a trade but just a giveaway- which is why i call it #2 instead of #1 worse trade thus far.

Answer 3

Marcus Camby for a 2nd round pick. I'm sure the heat would've gave a first rounder, or maybe even Shawn Marion.

The best trade was the O'Neal for TJ Ford. If O'Neal is healthy that is a very even trade and makes both teams better.

Answer 4

the jermaine o neal trade

Answer 5

anything kevin mcfail does is worst

Answer 6

the worst trade was marcus camby trade caz the Nuggets got ripped off while Clippers gotta paid another 10mill. for camby. even though its worth it. the best trade is the O'neal trade. the pacers get rid of his big contract while they got TJ ford and Nestorvis. and fast PG and decent PG, while Oneal helps and let pressure off of Bosh. they can rebound more and better defense

Answer 7

Worst: Baron to Clippers

Best: Jermaine to Raptors

Answer 8

Marcus Camby Trade suks for both teams

On clippers point of view- He is old, will never replace brand, now have 2 starting centers

On nuggets point of view- He is their only player who plays any defense

Answer 9

bad trades for Nuggets letting go a vet that won defensive player last year.  Clippers only gave up a future round pick in 2010.  Canby was practically given away.  

Elton Brand turned shady for a few million dollars.

the worse is loosing Carlos delfino and Najara to the Euro leagues, Childress might join them.  

Clippers best trade was for Barron Davis.

But the worse of the worse is Dirty Warrior organization offering too much $ for Ronny Turiof, they ripped the enery spark that the lakers got use to from him.  Oh , by the way the Lakes paid for your new and improved heart Ronny.  

anothe bad one was when bucks signed A Bogut for 60 million for 5 years, but the good one was that they signed Jefferson to their org.
