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

I presume you're a Bulls fan LOL yea you're right but the Bucks aren't going to win a championship any time soon so they need to focuse on winning and getting there fan base back which = more money which= defence which= championships

btw how can you get a +1 for using such an overused quote I wonder who even said that hmmm guess I'll have to look that up

Lakers fix thier guard problems by far!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes i'm a laker fan, but our bench is now much better and we have a better chance to get our rings.

And I don't balme Dwight for not pullin a lebron james, or a melo. I think he should give orland a chance to show they are for real about this championship. Then if not this sharade will hapen again next year.

What are you even talking about? Lebron James filled the entirety of his contract. He left as an Unrestricted Free Agent. Dwight Howard didn't pull a Lebron, he tried to get the team to trade him, before his contract was up. Get a effing clue, quit making Lebron out to be some bad guy, he's not.

LeBron was like anyone else from Akron/Cleveland (like me), HE WANTED OUT OF THERE AS MUCH AS THE NEXT GUY LIVING THERE.

I see nothing wrong with what he did in that sense. What I had a problem with, was him demanding management to get rid of the likes of, Ricky Davis, Carlos Boozer, Larry Hughes, Darius Miles. Players whom, playing with LeBron, or there before LeBRon put up solid-great numbers. But took away from LeBrons' spotlight (Davis and Hughes), or Rebounds, (Boozer) or his Highlight reel (Miles). The only worthwhile player the Cavaliers had that LeBron would play with, was Ilgauskas.

And as to my take, I think the Nuggets Unloading Nene's overpriced contract, and getting Javale McGee to play there with Mozgov, Koufos, and Faried. Gives the Nuggets one of the most dangerous, and depth filled, Front court in the NBA.

McGee is also the OLDEST ONE (24).
