Hawks Trade:
Tyrus Thomas
Rashad McCants
Marcus Williams
2014 Hawks 1st
Rockets Trade:
Luke Walton
DJ Augustin
2011 Lakers 1st
Rockets 2011 and 2012 2nds
**Garuntee not to sign AK
I agree. I'm probably getting raped now, but this trade will come together after FA...trust me.
I gain 10 mil in cap space, so i have a good chance of landing a solid FA AND I am guarunteed to get AK back now. I was very worried that houston was going to offer a 1 yr/17 mil offer for him, as he was the one team that could have outbid me. Now I can lower my offer for AK and prevent overpaying him. (No one else has enough cap space to outbid me)
I love Walton, as he fits the offense we want to run perfectly. We're going to go big with Chandler-Varejao-Ak-Arriza/fa signing-Walton, and Walton also adds much needed scoring.
Mccants wasn't too hard to deal. He is a one dimensional player making a lot of money, and i've never been a big fan of his.
TT was tough to deal. He was never going to start, but i like his blocking ability of the bench.....we can live without him though
With Walton coming, Marcus was very expandable as long as we got a backup pg back. Augustine is fine, and i wanted to include both of them in the deal to give me more cap flexibility to sign a big fa.
I absolutely hate giving the Hawks 2014 1st, but we should be a playoff team. I guess it's worth it if we want to compete, but i really do not like trading future 1sts.
Nice dealing, AIG...good luck
