Juan Dixon – Toronto Raptors
trade impact : 3/5
Fred Jones was touted a mini Vince Carter (because they were both Slam Dunk champs) when he first signed for Toronto, for the marriage didn’t work out that well, as he was supplanted by Jose Calderon and T.J Ford, and even Anthony Parker and Mo Peterson, so off he goes to Portland, where he could backup Brandon Roy and provide more athleticism to the Blazers backcourt; Juan Dixon on the other side gives the Raptors a combo guard that could spell both guard positions, and it gives them a guy who can put up big buckets in a matter of minutes.
Anthony Johnson – Atlanta Hawks
2nd Round Draft Pick – Dallas Mavericks
trade impact : 2/5
this to me sounds like a good trade, Atlanta gets Anthony Johnson, who has playoff experience, big game experiences, crunch time experience, so that’s alot of experience, remember his 40 point explosion against the Nets last season in the playoffs? ya, where is he going to help the Hawks at? veteran leadership, someone to cool their heads during some important stretch or something (Atlanta are only 5.5 games behind the 8th seed in the East); and another good thing is Dallas gets to get rid of Johnson who really hasn’t seen much playing time on the team, so it’s a good deal for both sides, and it gives them another chance to draft another Jose Juan Barea.
– the Jason Kidd deal to the Lakers are all but dead so Jason stays, and so does Vince, what i see is the Nets gets back the stability now that they know no one is getting traded, but still the team performance will go up and down up and down until Richard Jefferson actually returns to the court.
– the Hibachi grill is on at the Verizon and Mike at BulletsForever has the feed.
TRADE DEADLINE : KABOOM
