Blockbuster 4-team trade in the NBA

[Behzad12]

There's a 4 team trade thats going down today in the NBA between Toronto, Dallas, Memphis (no hamed in the trade) and Orlando, including 2 sign and trades.

Raptors Receive:
- Hedo Turkoglu (sign and trade from Orlando)
- Antoine Wright (Dallas)
- Devean George (Dallas)

Dallas Receive:
- Shawn Marion (Toronto)
- Kris Humphries (Toronto)
- Greg Buckner (Memphis)

Orlando Receives:
- Cash Considerations (trade exception)

Memphis Recieves:
- Quincy Douby (Toronto)
- Jerry Stackhouse ($2 million in cash to buy him out from Dallas)

Here's one of the articles on the story. that pretty much summed it up if no one wants to read the article.

good trade for the raptors especially. this sign and trade now helps them to have there whole MLE and cap space to make other FA signings since hedo is coming through a sign and trade. also getting antoine wright, who was a lottery pick a few years back but still has potential and a solid bench player, as well as devean george, who is a vet that can help demar derozan adjust to the NBA.
With that said, raptors can still sign carlos delfino now, and 1/2 free agents.

if you look at the salary situation and how all 4 teams made it work, you'd know that it isnt easy to pull of such a trade with those many parts involved in it, including 2 sign-and-trades.

nice trades....although i dont know what memphis management is up to but i guess stackhouse is a good deal for them, they need a veteran


what happened to iverson going there??

there still negotiating for iverson but as for stackhouse, there going to buy him out of his $7 million contract that expires at the end of the year. only $2 mil. is guaranteed and dallas paid for it.

aaww WTF?

man hamed should just go to barcelona...f-ck this wack ass nba nowdays....they're more impressed by a black dude who can do like 1 dunk/game and yell out pumping his chest rather than a smooth guy who's an all around player like haddadi

yea that was messed up what he did. i think he realized west has alot of strong teams and its harder to make the finals. toronto's on the east and only competition is really cavs and celtics.
