Done Deal - Sacramento/Minny -- Sheldon and Bobby Brown Traded

[Superman]

Wrong way to look at the Bibby thing -- this actually keeps the Bibby trade alive, as we now parlay Sheldon into McCants. And for people who do not know, these were McCants' numebrs last year:

75gms 26.9min 14.9pts (.453 FG% .407 3pt% .748 FT%) 2.7reb 2.2ast 0.9stl 0.2blk 2.3TO


The guy has some real talent. This trade is not a capitulation, although we certainly might just let him walk. But talentwise McCants >> Sheldon + Brown. Just a question of whether he has grown a brain or not.

Put another way, if we had turned Bibby into McCants and a pick rather than Sheldon and a pick, that would have looked like a pretty good rebulding deal -- young guard with talent. Now we basically have, just a year late.

I never minded the Bibby deal (I minded what we did with the pick, but not the trade itself). This makes it better.

If fans want the Maloofs to agree to spend money on big-time players (and a new arena), they need to recognize that these guys are going to need to save as much money as they can over the next season and a half. That's why the Shareef decision is such a huge deal. Saves the team (and the owners) over $12 million. That's good for our prospects for the future.

I remeber I was getting so mad at McCants this game I somehow busted my light with a pillow.
