Lakers.
They acquired Sessions AND got rid of LW's shitty contract.

Yep, I agree with Eagle, Lakers definitely had the best deal.

Hmm, who exactly is Jordan Hill, is he any good? And I kind of liked the spurs trade as well.

Jordan Hill is at best a quality 3rd string C.

Yeah, I liked the Spurs trade a lot.
Jordan Hill is not a starter, but he's a good backup for AB (at least much better than Murphy).

For me, I thought the Wizards came out the best, with everything considered - how much they had to give up, and getting a quality big-man in return for the long-term.

In regards to Dwight Howard, he's always going to be on the fence. Maybe the one-year opt-in was a happy medium for now.

For me it was the Milwaukee Bucks getting Monta Ellis, (an additional 22 points a night maybe not the best shot selection but he can always improve), Ephay Udo ( up and coming defender who dosn't add much to the stat sheet but has +/- numbers second only to Blake Griffen), and Kwame Brown ( an extra 7 mil to spend this summer when his contract expires),
All of this for an injury prone Andrew Bogut, who yes, is an elite center in this league but the risk of injury takes alot off of his resume. So I say look for a more 2000-2003 style of Bucks play maybe not as good as the Ray-Ray years but it has the potential. Go Bucks

I thought it was an okay deal, but i wouldn't say the best deal. This is because although they did get Monta Ellis, now their guards are both midgets.

Monta Ellis: 6'3"
Brandon Jennings: 6'1"

They now have the smallest starting guard lineup in the league and that could cause them some problems when they play teams that have shooting guards 6'6"+

You're right there is a concern on defence and whether BJ3 and Ellis will mesh or not but although its not the best way they could score enough to overcome that
