For this season, I think Cleveland is clearly the big winner among all the teams that traded. Lebron is now surrounded by some very solid, complementary players - Shaq, Mo Williams, Jamison, Hickson, Varejao, West, Gibson, Parker, Moon...
Mahihirapan na talaga ang Boston and Orlando against the Cavs come playoff time. Baka matuloy na ang Dream Finals ng NBA, ABC and Nike: King James vs. the Black Mamba.
I think Sacramento helped themselves more than Houston in their trade with NY. Tyreke Evans will now have full control of the team, and Landry is the frontcourt player they needed. On the other hand, Kevin Martin is going to a team which already has a lot of offensive options, including a scoring PG. Parang magulo.
Miami and Phoenix could have made big trades, but decided to stay put. These could be crucial "non-moves" come the off-season.
And speaking of next season, yup - the Knicks are looking good. If they add an All-Star guard like Wade or Joe Johnson to team up with Lee, Gallinari, Chandler, Harrington, NY should at least return to the playoffs next year.
