David Aldridge is reporting in his live blog that the Cavaliers, Bulls and Sonics agreed to a big three-way trade just before the deadline. The Cavaliers are expected to receive Ben Wallace and Joe Smith from the Bulls along with Wally Szczerbiak and Delonte West from the Sonics. The Bulls get Larry Hughes and Drew Gooden, and the Sonics get Ira Newble, Donyell Marshall and Adrian Griffin. Ben Wallace and Joe Smith to Cleveland. The Cavs' Ira Newble, Donyell Marshall and Adrian Griffin to Seattle for Wally Szczerbiak and Delonte West.

Hopefully that's true. You can write Cleveland off if that's the case.

the great thing about this - Cleveland adds to their frontline and we can't rebound (outside of Dwight)

good going, Orlando. Way to keep up with the jonses.

Not really a blockbuster trade, big yes in the number of people but not big name/great player huge. Its more of a RadioShack trade.

i was thinking more along the lines of a holywood video trade. im not real big on it though. i dont think it really helps cleavland all that much. i dont see wally putting up numbers like he did in seattle playin with lebron. and i think gooden was better than wallace this year. i think the bulls win on this getting gooden and hughes

And if use that formula, say you flip EM to ME, then you have:



ME = MC

Are you kidding? Wally's numbers this year are all below his career averages. He comes of the bench in Seattle because they want to develop Durant. I don't see how playing with 7 apg Lebron would hurt his numbers. Lebron plays good with shooters around him that's why Gibson's been so good there.

The Magic win the most in this trade.
They now have to face Larry "Magic Killer" Hughes once more instead of twice

On the bright side, the Cavs gain pretty much nothing here, and might even get worse.
