Basically PHX dumps Amare for Cash/Picks/and Anderson Varejo. Probably a low 1st round pick and 2nd rd. pick. LAL get Amare, and his goggles fit perfectly in LA via Worthy, and CLE gets BYNUM and Nocioni, while only having to worry about paying or buying out sasha vajacic for 1 YEAR. This saves Sacramento money and who knows, they might get a pick out of it somehow, because they facilitate the trade. I like the trade for all parties because it Makes Cleveland more dangerous inside with 2 premium grade Centers and NOC covers all depth problems they were once worried about. PHX isn't contending and doesn't want to pay like they are. LA obviously comes out on top because they get Amare, but it isn't all cookies and creme because they loose a lot of expiring contracts.
 
No way we get involved in a trade that sees Amare and Bynum switch teams and we dont land either. Why would we want to help facilitate a blockbuster deal for the Lakers? Doesn't matter how much cap space we have this summer, we are too much of a small market team to land Bosh. No point in doing this deal....
 
No way two teams, no less three teams from the same division deal with each other. Even if it benefits them. This trade just seems to help the titans while those outside looking in stay that way. The Cavs would be in salary hell though and probably wouldn't be able to afford James after all that.
 
wait.. are we helping the lakers win another ring? with this trade we might just do it... no.. i dont want another reason for the faker fans to gloat and get more ignorant about basketball ;)
 
I actually don't think this helps the Lakers at all- I think they'd rather stick with Bynum than trade for an injury-prone Amare who's due for an extension.

Phoenix probably says no-Amare for Varejao? Really?

Sacramento says no- KT is the biggest expiring we have and the best trade asset and we trade him for....expirings?

Cleveland probably says yes, and that's about it.


Everyone saying this gives the Lakers another ring are wrong- they're the favorites right now, it give Cleveland their first ring. Trade is at best a lateral move for the Lakers, while Bynum would be a big upgrade and Noc would be an excellent roleplayer on a championship team.
 
1) Can't see anyone trying to help the Cavs that badly. Varejao for Bynum? Man, that's some lightyears ahead in talent disparity. There's a reason why no one's biting on their swindling Varejao/expiring contracts for Iggypop/Jamison trades that they're offering.

2) Lakers probably wouldn't do this--Amare has been overrated on defense and rebounding, and his injury problems exacerbate the issues. No one's going to trade proven young talent for Amare.

3) We get out of Noc's contract, but trust me, we wouldn't want to be part of a deal helping the Cavaliers and involving the Lakers.

Are you sure you are a Kings fan? I see L.A and Cleveland getting helped. Why don't they just make the trade without the Kings being involved? Bad deal for us.:confused:
