Trade! Wizards get Josh Howard, Mavericks get Caron Butler in 7-player deal

The Wizards are taking a page out of another failure Washington team. The Redskins. They are trading picks, for overrated players, making terrible decisions and failing at rebuilding.

that is all.

WHO CARES ABOUT THE WIZARDS? We're talking about the MAVS.

did you forget it takes 2 teams to make a trade?

am i the only one that thinks that the mavs ripped the wiz a new one

Im honestly just eager to see how this new Mavs team will look on the court. This makes them LOADS better. Not to mention Butler, Haywood, and DeShawn bring toughness to the Mavs, which they've lacked for awhile. This can only be good for them....I cant see it NOT working out on a positive note. I dont know if it puts them over the top, but it certainly helps!

That's what I am saying. haha. The point is that the Wiz are not relevant... I care more about the team I might see in the playoffs.

It takes two teams to make a trade, but not two contenders... and it certainly doesn't take any level of fairness. JHo, Gooden + Scrubs for that package is something I'd take any day.

[QUOTE=John Smith]Ross has a player option for over a mil which he would be foolish not to exercise.

PG: Kidd
SG: Butler
SF: Marion
PF: Dirk
C: Dampier

Key back ups:

C Haywood, G Terry[/QUOTE]


You will find out as the Wizzards did that Butler isnt a good match at SG. He plays much better and more consistant at the 3 . Also you will find out Haywood is not a happy camper coming off the bench . I'd put haywood in over Damp and bring Butler off the bench. Against some teams they can play sm ball
Kidd
Terry
Butler
Marion
Dirk.
This would make a hard team to match up against.

[QUOTE=Tyreke Evans13]Is Randy Foye doing good for the wizards? I thought they were foolish when they traded their pick for Foye;[/QUOTE]


Is the Randy Foye that played with Minn. Ernie came to the Wizz and pulled off some great moves now his last few have been horrible. Does anyone really think Lebron,Wade ect... have the Wizzards on there list of teams they hope to play for ???????I thought last year was bad for us this is gonna be a worst year. IF they trade Jaminson I hope a pick comes with it But none of Ernies picks have developed.

Give me fantasy ramifications.

Kidd
Terry
Butler
Dirk
Haywood

6th man Marion

Even Kobe loves the trade for the Mavs:

[QUOTE=InspiredLebowski]Give me fantasy ramifications.[/QUOTE]

I think Josh Howard will put up big empty stats , which is good in fantasy basketball

Drew Gooden or Blatche might have bigger numbers

Terry's numbers might suffer a bit

Damp might become completely useless

(all fantasy basketball predictions, not the real thing)

Wow the mavericks are at the top again. Who will play the SF Butler o Marion?

Wow the Mavs will have the best backcourt in the west with this trade.

I'm just wondering if the Mavs are thinking of trading Dampier. His contract experies this season and is worth 12mill. With all this money saving going on, we might see a trade for a big guy with a big contract.

If thats the case I dont see why the Wizz didnt try and get him to replace Haywood. We saw how well they did without Haywood last year what is Ernie thinking about Oh well maybe this gives the new owners more reason to fire him and Flip.
