    Fucking Memphis. Helping both Dallas and Toronto.

    Wow.

    Not a big fan of Marion's attitude, but he should flourish alongside Kidd and makes the Mavs stronger.

    And *what* exactly does Memphis get out of this? Chris Wallace needs killing.

    Hah. I would imagine they get some money out of it.

    If they didn't plan on using their cap space, and they can get $3m while only being responsible for $2m of Stackhouse's contract... that's profit for the Grizzlies.

    What the fuck, Memphis? It's like they're out to help some franchises and fuck others without giving a shit how it helps them on the court.

    It would allow Howard to play SG, definitly increasing the strength of their starting unit. Their bench unit not so much. But I don't see Carslisle having a problem with playing them major minutes.

    I'm having a hard time seeing how that makes any sense at all, CBA-wise.

    Orlando traded for Carter and still had the rights to Turk so they could trade him. Raptors have the cap space so they could take on Turk even thought they are sending no salary back.

    So this helps 3 of the 4 teams, and the one out of it being Memphis. Nice.

    I can see why Memphis would do it. Chris Wallace, you suck.

    Not really. You can't offer them any money, and the TPE can't be combined with any assets.

    I thought this was a pretty awesome trade in the way it circumvented the cap. 3 of the teams came out of it substantially better.

    The Mavericks, Raptors, Grizzlies and Magic combined in a massive swap Thursday that included eight players, a draft pick and stacks of cash. The deal sent Shawn Marion(notes) to Dallas, Stackhouse to Memphis and helped seal the transaction that moved Hedo Turkoglu(notes) from Orlando to Toronto.

    Among the other pieces: Forward Kris Humphries(notes), center Nathan Jawai(notes) and cash went from Toronto to Dallas; guard Greg Buckner(notes) moves from Memphis to Dallas; and swingmen Antoine Wright(notes) and Devean George(notes) go from Dallas to Toronto.

    Memphis also received a second-round pick and cash from Toronto and cash from Dallas. The Mavericks and Raptors both also sent cash to Orlando.
