    How is this new thread different from this one. They should be merged.

    Plus, there's a third thread about this, "Laker Hate."

    I agree. I guess they love Affalo and Harkless, but wow. This is the kind of fan-proposed trade that seems to work for three teams by utterly screwing the fourth team. Maybe history will prove me wrong, but I find it hard to believe.

    That thread isn't about analyzing the trade, it's just about not liking the Lakers.

    The only way to make sense of trades like this is as favors to agents. Otherwise it's a total clusterfuck for Orlando.

    I'll state again, those other threads didn't actually say what the trades were.

    Arguably, the biggest winner in the deal is Philly. The traded a small for a big. The second best center in the league. How often does a team get an exchange like that? If Bynum was available for a small, we should've been in that deal.

    Been in that deal? With who? Not sure if you know, we don't have an Iggy on our team. And don't say Batum, he can't be traded right now.
