Trade Deadline!

There was definitely some big names that moved today like Aaron Brooks to the Suns for Goran Draic, Gerald Wallace to the Blazers, Shane Battier to the Grizzles for Thabeet, Kirk Hinrich to the Hawks for Mike Bibby, Baron Davis to the Cavs for Jamario Moon and Mo Williams. Thats some good trades but none is as good as this 1...... Kendrick Perkins and Nate Robinson to OKC for Jeff Green lol. I have no idea what the hell the Celtics were thinking here? The only 1s happier about this trade than me is the Miami Heat lol. Any1 ready to jump on that Heat band wagon? There is still some room.

the celtics had to get rid of him cuz they were gonna lose him anyway after this season, they cant afford to pay him

PS, we have been discussing the trades in the NBA thread right here

its too late, i already gone cut myself!

I loved the Rockets moves. They got ride of a problematic PG that's down from last year for a similar type(lower level currently) prospect with more size and more hunger & a first round draft pick. Then they get ride of a great person and role player that is overpaid & doesn't have a future with us for a 7'3" future DPOY & another draft pick.

They definitely made some good moves but I really love Shane Battier although he has already peaked years ago.

I really liked Jeff Green but he was never a true PF and Ibaka isn't a center. So now Ibaka gets more playing time and at the right position and we got 2 true centers now. So it did help make the Thunder 2 deep at every position.

It does make them flexible but it hurts one of their major strengths, size down low. Jeff Green is a very solid player, I didn't want to see him go.

As a Heat fan(at least for a little while) I think it hurt the Celtics chances to win a title this season.

I think it hurts them against the Lakers but not against Miami or Chicago, they are looking at not always playing big against those guys.

I think it helps the Heat matchup alittle better with them now then when they had Perkins.

Maybe but Green does help give them a different look vs those kind of teams.

Yeah he definitely makes them more athletic.

They got Green because PP and Allen can't handle LeBron & Wade for 7 games. The need more young legs and size to help out. They are hurting with size, but there is a chance Shaq comes back and fills that role.

Shaq is a foul machine now and with Wade and LeBron going to the bucket Shaq will foul out in the 1st half lol.
