    I would hope that they took the best deal for the team, not what would be worst for Jackson.

    I have a feeling that LeBron's gonna end up in NY...Just not with the Knicks, in Brooklyn via NJ.

    Knicks = MSG and I don't mean the food additive that's bad for you. The other destination could be Miami imho because of the weather and pairing up with Wade. But unless Cleveland can win a championship, they are out. So even if Jackson ends up on the Cavs, he ends up with a re-building team and Cleveland. Maybe he'll enjoy the Rock n' Roll museum and HOF for baseball and football there.

    There were rumors initially that GS took a crappier deal with Charlotte. The alleged Cleveland deal was Jack for Delonte West and a signed-and-traded Wally Sczerbiak. Both of their contracts are minimally guaranteed after this season. MTII reported not long after that Cleveland also demanded a GS 1st round pick in that deal though which is, obviously, a deal breaker.

    Having seen Raja interact with the team already I'm glad we made that deal. Saw some quotes of Monta, Morrow, and Randolph giving him props and admiring him for playing last night (he's still getting surgery soon though). In the Cleveland game he was counseling Randolph before the 4th quarter as well. I'm sure you can make the argument that Delonte West is the better player but dude is a nutcase and we've got plenty of combo guards as it is.

    Vlad is ok considering I expected him to completely suck. Anything he gives us I'll consider a bonus.

    And I think Miami is going to come away the big winners of this offseason. They'll have a TON of cap room and I think Pat Riley can coax a big name or two to come in to play with Wade.

    Yeah, after seeing Bell on the team for two games (I know he only played one), I love this guy! What a gamer. He's already a leader on this team. He was getting in the ref's face, pleading the team's case for a out of bounds call that went the Celtics way. He was talking to all the players. Man, he's exactly the type of player that Sjax needed to be. I kinda wouldn't mind the Warriors re-signing this guy for a few years.

    Bell coming off the bench to play last night was the most "self-less" move I've seen by any Warrior since Mully.

    Seems like the perfect replacement for Jack. Great defense, great presence in the locker room, great 3 pt shooter, not a ball stopper by any means.

    Too bad hes having surgery.
