I partly made this topic because I've missed probably the biggest week of trades in the NBA, what trades have went down so far?
What a boring trading deadline. Basically for the week, counting last week's too. Darko/Arroyo/1st round pick for 07/08 for Cato. Who didn't turn into a pg.Then, simple trades like Bogans/Lampe to Rockets. Hornets landed Moochie Norris, Bobcats Lonny Baxter, respecitively. Big trades were only one was Francis to NY for Ariza/Penny(waived).And right before deadline ended, Byron Russell/Earl Watson to Sonics, Ruben Patterson/Reggie Evans to Nugs, and Vitaly Potapenko/Voshon Lenard to Blazers.That's about it.
When the best player moved is Earl Watson- then you know GMs are sleeping.Man, after the deals involving Artest and Zerby- I really thought the trading doors were opened. How wrong was I.

I'm pretty sure Francis is a better player then Watson by a good amount. Watson is a career backup, Francis is a all-star type.
Francis was a pretty pointless trade for the Knicks. Great now they just have more guards to shoot the ball and less touches from Frye and Lee. Now they pretty much are screwed longterm. What goes through Isiah's mind.
^ I don't knowHe has now messed up the knicks for a long timebig contracts for many players who basically play the same position :no3:
The rose trade was big in the eyes of raptor fans. Peja for Artest was probably the biggest trade, with steve francis being second. I found the trade deadline very boring compared to last year. Webber traded, baron davis...
