I think it was a pretty even deal provided JO stays healthy.

Toronto with

Calderon
Parker
Marion
Bosh
Barg

They could give us run for our money after the all-star break for the 8th seed. I also read somewhere that we have one of the hardest schedules left to play in the NBA. Not looking good for us.

Immediately, it's Toronto, but it's too early to tell for me. It'll be interesting to see what Toronto does with it's cap room this summer now. Also, Miami has almost enough for 2 max contracts now (extend wade and add another) so it'll be really intriguing how they handle 2010. On paper, Toronto wins, but ask me again in like August 2010 and I may have a different answer.

its a push for me both guys can get injured for the rest of the season and then both teams would basically be the same.

Miami, easily for me. They got a pick, plus Moon. Marion is over the hill, in my opinion.

condition top 15 protected and cant be used next year + they gave us 3 mil which could easily be used to buy a pick at the same range

Miami wins, IMHO.
On the techincal side this is a good trade for both teams, but Riley's first objective is to keep Wade after 2010.... now they have the cap space they need for him and another all-star (probably Bosh :devil:).
Also, Marion didn't fit in the team, and they've got a 1st pick.
