So when we first heard about this trade going down, there was a secondary trade of Antoine Wright for a 2nd round pick. Now that George backed out of it and they are thinking about KVH sign and trade, what do you guys think of Anoine Wright? they were only wanting a second round pick.

It was probably a trade conditional to the larger trade but it just tipped the balance of salary out so had to be reworked as 2 separate trades... The Nets are likely only prepared to give us Wright for a 2nd if we can give them a Devin Harris and a Diop...

I think that the Mavs are doing that because they are going to need another body after that trade. They're talking about a 5-for-2 trade.

I don't know.....Antoine Wright.....I liked him in the draft. But he hasn't been able to be the least bit consistent on a team with Jason Kidd as its point guard. You'd have to question how he's going to pan out long term. (Plus Magic don't have a second-rounder this year.)

Speaking of that, though.....This must be the deepest we have gotten into a college basketball season that our board hasn't become dominated by draft talk. I love it because I don't pay much attention to college basketball until the conference tournaments start. But that is one of the biggest surprises of the season for me so far.
