http://www.netsdaily.com/2010/12/14/187 ... -be-tradedTerrence Williams is inactive (and not in the building) for Tuesday's game against the Sixers, and it's because he's going to be traded to a Western Conference team on Wednesday.
It's a three-way trade, with Williams going to Houston and the Nets getting back Sasha Vujacic (from the Lakers), the Lakers' 2011 first-round pick, and the Rockets' 2012 first rounder. Joe Smith would also be sent to L.A.

Joe Smith will help
I wonder if Maria will dump his ass now. Sasha will be out of NBA for good once his contract expires

When the Lakers were playing the Net's on Sunday,I saw Joe Smith cheering on the sidelines.
I wasn't sure if it was him or if he was still in the league.
As for Sasha. He has been pretty worthless the past couple years.But those clutch Ft's he hit in game 7 at the end of the game were pretty clutch.

even with the first round pick thrown in, the difference in salary between sasha and smith is gonna let buss pocket several millions.

Nets just stole the Lakers championship winning backcourt.
But they picked the wrong two guys.

If they want to give us Devin Harris for Fisher to add some more championship swagger, i wouldn't mind

I think Sasha will have a pretty nice showing in NJ!
Yeah he's worthless to us but in a different offense he could be ok
and Smith in the tri should be interesting as well as he is still an ok post defender, rebounder and jump shooter. I think he get 10 mins/4 pts/2boards and most importantly our bigs get a little rest until Bynum is intergrated back into rotation

i wanted him too, he would be a nice piece for the future, and he is a better offensive player than brown - would kind of give us the firepower of a player like JR Smith off of the bench. happy to see another big come in who can defend down low and hit the mid range jumper which should free up kobe and our corner three point shooters even more

Our picks are not going to really do us much, besides we can probably buy one back if we really want. We've got a decent amount of young prospect if you look at Brown, Ebanks, Character, and Bynum.
This move saves us a TON of money, close to 10 mil. Yeah I would have liked the expiring to amount to more, but at least he's a warm body which is more then I can say for Sasha

but he's just a solid vet that can give a few rest minutes here and there where we don't have to worry.
