Darn - Poole was one of my targets this off-season.

Seems like Wizards are trying to clear the books for next summer.

I'm going to say Washington for getting some sensible vets on the team. They already have Middleton, Smart, and now CJ

For the Pelicans, I honestly have no idea why other than Joe Dumars being back

Dumars might be a worse GM than Nico. I feel like Wizards should have given up more to get rid of Poole's contract.

lol what an odd trade, really doesn't make much sense. I mean I guess I would say Wizards did better getting rid of Poole's longer contract?

Pelicans finally got to the last season of CJ's deal, and they go and move that for the 2 remaining on Poole's LOL.
