Mega Trade!!!
The biggest trade in NBA history was finalized earlier tonight as reported (kinda) here when the Miami Heat acquired Antoine Walker from the Celtics, and Jason Williams and James Posey from the Grizzlies. In a deal that involves 5 teams and 12 players, the Heat landed 3 players that could put them over the top next season.
Yea I know Antoine Walker is not that great of a player, yea I know Jason Williams is spotty when it comes to decision making, and yea I know James Posey missed 50 games last season, but damnit the Heat didnt get any worse. They gave up Eddie Jones, who, while he is a nice role-player, has under-preformed his ginourmous contract. The Eastern Conference, save for Indiana, has been getting worse this offseason. Who will challenge them (the Heat)? Also a Wade/Williams backcourt sounds exciting (no homo). Shaq did not have any good passers last year, with the addition of Williams he may not have to work as hard in the post.
On a semi-related note, wtf is Memphis doing? Not only do they trade away two of their starters for an over the hill shooting guard (trust me there are better over the hill shooting guards out there) but earlier in the offseason they always traded away Bonzi Wells. With Pau Gasol going no where fast, I can see why the fanbase in Vancouver dwindled.

more like, wtf are the Jazz doing? Trading away 3 young guys (Lopez, Borchardt, Snyder) to pick up Utah's most hated player ever, Greg Ostertag
I thought you hated the Jazz...........Fly's comin outa the closet (no homo x 20)
So, who do you think is the most screwed team in this deal?
Unless they plan on building around Stromile Swift i dont understand what memphis is doing. It just traded away its future........for Eddie Jones and Bobby Jackson.
Meh. At least it's not Sam Bowie caliber (I think that was his name. The guy that was picked before Jordan)
