Supposedly they went right to LA and they worked out a deal.

Agreed. But it took Kidd to get Harris (looking at the trade the other way around).

If we could get Artest with our expirings and JJ, it would be interesting. However isn't Artest a unrestricted FA? Hasn't he been saying it would be nice to get back to NYC?

I agree completely. But there may not be any viable options - and people will still be hating on Otis.

But if there aren't a moves that we don't give up too much, what then?

Is everyone still going to be bashing Otis?

IMO. I think there has not been more activity with the Magic is because they don't want to add money to the future cap. The Magic have the tools to have been in or close to just about any one of these last trades except Shaq.

If Bibby plays to what he is capable then the Hawks got themselves a good player. Should be enough to get them in the playoffs. I doubt they pass us this year but next year they probably have the best starting 5 in the conference.

on paper...

besides, it's more like this:

Dwight>>>>Horford
Rashard=<Smith
Hedo>>Williams
Evans<<JJ
Nelson=<Bibby

more importantly:

SVG>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Woodson


LOL! This is great stuff. As a Hawks fan, unfortunately I'm afraid it's true. Woodson blows.
