I dunno about the trade to be honest.

Brook Lopez has established himself as a top-20 guy and Gallinari isn't too far behind. Both will get plenty of opportunities to stay there, whilst Griffin could be an x-factor in his NBA debut (half) season.

Birdman and Varejao have been great this year, but D-Wade hasn't been at his best...

I looked at that deal in a different perspective... Brook has been playing significantly worse since Yi got back and I think it's only a matter of time before he falls to the precipice of being a top 35 player rather than top 20. It was tough to deal Danillo and Blake especially considering said x factor that Blake could be but considering I only picked up Griffin last week I looked at it like Galli & Brook for a guy who's still top 13 in terms of the ratings Yahoo creates.

Solid reasoning.


On the topic of Griffin, I'm pretty hesitant on him as he is a poor FT shooter. Below .600 in college, and I can't imagine it's improved that much since then. So buyer beware.

Brooks and Brand for Wade??? hahahah.. You robbed that manager blind.

Funny thing is I have all three of those guys on my squad. Wade is worth ALLOT more than those two that's for sure.
