(I organized the acquisitions a little better)

[J~Rush]

Portland got a future second for the 55th pick. Also it might be better if you bolded the team names.

I mentioned that in the parenthesis.

[kevC]

Houston got Donte Greene not Arthur.

Bulls traded Weems for Omer Asik, pick #36

Bulls traded Weems for Omer Asik, pick #36

Can you confirm? On the Bulls board I read that Asik was traded for 3 2nd round picks.
I also updated the list with the following trade (Blazers get yet another future pick):

MEM
#28 Greene, 2009 2nd
for
#27 Arthur

HOU
#25 Batum, #54 Maarty Leunen
for
#28 Greene, #33 Dorsey

POR
#27 Arthur
for
#25 Batum, #54 Maarty Leunen, 2009 MEM 2nd

[asdfgh]

I updated with the Mayo/Love trade and with the Asik/Weems deal (Portland got 3 more 2nd round picks, Denver got Weems for a 2nd and Chicago got Asik for Weems and 2 2nds).

Portland got 5 extra 2nd round picks tonight. WOW

This doesn't make any sense. Why wouldn't they just draft arthur at 25?

[asdfgh]

Memphis had the 28th pick, not the 25th. They traded up to get Arthur.

I got my information from the Houston board and the Houston Chronicle. If proven wrong I'll change it.

[A.J.]

Yeah, we got Memphis's 2nd rounder.

It didn’t take long for the Rockets to say au revoir to their first round draft pick from France.

Just a short time after taking 19-year-old small forward Nicolas Batum with the No. 25 selection in Thursday’s NBA draft, the Rockets were working to complete a pair of deals that would send away Batum and their second round pick (No. 54) and get two players in return.

Those two players are Donte Greene of Syracuse and Joey Dorsey of Memphis.

Greene, a 6-11 forward, was chosen by the Memphis Grizzlies with the 28th pick in the first round.

Dorsey, who played in the NCAA championship game with the University of Memphis, was taken with the No. 33 pick (second) round by Portland.

Batum will go to the Portland Trail Blazers and the Rockets will also end up with a second round pick from the Grizzlies in 2009.

The Rockets are still waiting for the NBA office to approve the deals.

Yeah I saw that too. Someone on the Rockets board made a mistake.

Can someone confirm the Jackson to Cleveland deal? There is a rumor that Cleveland got someone with a 2nd rounder but we don't know yet if it's Jackson from Miami or Kaun from Seattle or both.

[asdfgh]

I updated with the two trades Cleveland made.

[hyper316]
