NBA Trades: RJ to Spurs, Shaq to Cavaliers, and MORE!

In a matter of 2 days, 4 trades have occurred just prior to Draft Day 2009. Next season is going to be EXTREMELY interesting.

Also, if you're interested in NBA merch, now's the time to go on Ebay and look for stuff. I got a Steve Nash jersey that retails at 79.99 for 25 bucks.

cavs are going to own

[NoPlaceLikeHomeField]

Probably not much more than they did last year. Boston still has it's championship team, in addition to Rasheed Wallace, and I still think Howard could own Shaq because let's face it, Shaq is losing his edge.

If the Cavs get to the Finals, they still have to handle either the Spurs or Lakers. And that's not exactly a cakewalk.

I have to agree that the Cav'z are looking like the favorites heading into the season this year, still glad that the coach of the pistons did not accept the trade offer for the celtics

[NoPlaceLikeHomeField]

Yea, looking like faves. But now that Spurs and Celtics went out and got HUGE additions to their teams, I don't think the Cavs are the favorites anymore. Celtics have the same championship team they had a couple of seasons ago, but now with Rasheed Wallace, and an improved Rondo at PG. And I think the Spurs will be a monster force in the West with RJ, McDyess, and Ratliff.

ok umm (from best to worst)

PG - rondo / nelson / williams

SG - carter / allen / parker

SF - james / pierce / pietrus

PF - garnett / lewis / varejao

C - howard / wallace / shaq (now dont' get me wrong shaq has accomplished so much more than wallace, probably more than howard ever will altho he's still got a long future ahead, and he was spectacular in his prime, but right now he doesn't "have it" anymore, you can see he's not doing well in cleveland, they're better with him off the court)

[hemelekkoff]

Right Now The contenders 1._Spurs: 2._Celtics 3._Lakers 4._Magic 5._Cavs >The spurs and celtics have a great player in each position and have a good bench >Derek Fisher is the Talon the aquiles of lakers, each PG of the NBA is better, faster, etc Fisher Just make Magic shots >The magic lost a little roster with the additiion of carter and they would have worry in keep Hedo >The Suns added Shaq to stop Duncan and didnt work now the cavs add shaq to stop howard ....and to keep lebron

[Hypnotist22]

ok the only place they have problems is the shooting guard position, but also delonte west is a good defender and shaq will body up howard and anderson varejao gives kevin garnett problems i know this because last year in the playoffs
