You guys got worse for next season, but it should be better in the long run since Miller was a luxury for you and Foye is not good enough to overcome his tweener status. Wizards get better with the proven talent and won't need Foye to be a no.1 or 2 scorer to be useful.

Any Wolves fan expecting something out of Etan or Pech is in for a surprise though. Etan was useless last season and even at his best is an undersized, ok backup C who will be an avg. rebounder, hit a couple hook shots but also walking TO and a guy who doesn't pass. Pech is tall and can hit a 3pt shot at an average clip but doesn't do much else. Even for a 19 win squad, most all of his PT was garbage time, inflating his scoring and rebounding numbers.

So we essentially accepted a player option for Jason Collins.

When I made the poll, I meant better off (not better immediately)

btw, according the the Washington boards own thread, 67% support it and 33% are against it. I guess we like the trade more (I like the sound of that).
