I was going to take some time before i labeled the Cavs instant losers, only for the reason that Ben will make a bigger impact there than in Chicago since he runs with Z now and he's not the primary focus for all things down low...not to mention Z/Ben/AV/Smith = a very decent front line...but $$$ IDK, losers...still need to think on it...

I know this is a bit to ask but can someone put together the before and after affects. As an outsider I really can't see the diffrence clearly for teams like HOU and CLE. I think West would be potentially CLE's starter and a perfect fit there as a streak shooter and a hustler on defense where I know CLE has been starting Hughes at PG then putting Boobie in the fourth for LeBron to take over.
For HOU I want to know if they are really expecting a lot from Gerald Green seeign as they moved Bonzi and Green wants minutes but isn't ready for them perhaps.
CHI's picture is a little more clearer. So is NO's good job NO. But if some HOU and CLE fans can do a before and after deadline deals of their roster and rotations I'd appreciate it.

Orlando is obviously the big loser. We were expected to make a deal, we had the ability to drastically improve the roster, and Otis Smith failed to deliver. From the beginning, he showed a general ineptness (or apathy), traveling and scouting college basketball less than 48 hours before the deadline. Now over $13,000,000 in expiring Magic contracts, in a year when a premium is placed on expiring contracts, has gone to complete and total waste.

winners: raptors
they got brezec, a servicable center, yes. but this opens the door to trading rasho's expiring contract which should be a hot commodity as early as this summer.
losers: suns
too many holes to fill that they didn't and i probably sound like a homer saying this but they dropped the ball by not acquiring quinton ross. it's going to be painful watching grant hill try to guard kobe in a 7 game series.
