GRIZZLIES
Out - Gay, Conley, Future 1st
In - Rondo, Pierce
CELTICS
Out - Rondo, Pierce, 2012 1st (#22)
In - Big Al, Conley, Hayward, Blatche, 2013 GSW #1, Memphis Future 1st
JAZZ
Out - Big Al, Hayward, Bell, 2013 GSW 1st
In - Lewis, 2012 Wash 1st (#3), 2012 Bos 1st (22)
WIZARDS
Out - Lewis, Blatche, 2012 1st (#3)
In - Gay, Bell
WHY?
Memphis - Want to continue their success, but add a superstar (Rondo) and a clutch veteran (Pierce). They would also be saving $$$ long term by trading Gay.
Boston - They want to get young talent on good contracts and draft picks while still winning. Tuff to do, but this deal accomplishes this goal. If KG and Green resign they'd have a complete TEAM while adding draft picks and keeping cap flexibility.
UTAH - This team is to young to compete. Favors (20) and Kantor (20) are two young building blocks. Lewis will be able to be waived for only $13 mil which saves money immediately. They'll also have their choice of MKG, Beal, or Barnes to add to their young core of Favors, Kantor and Burks. Still keep their cap flexibility going forward.
WIZARDS - Fans of this team do not want to admit it but they're in win now mode. The McGee for Nene trade proves this fact. By having a core of Wall, Gay and Nene locked up it will attract FA IMO and allow them to be an annual playoff team. They also rid themselves of Lewis and Blatche without eating a ton of $$$.
