TRADE: Wizards trade Gilbert Arenas to Magic for Rashard Lewis!

[BallsOut]

So, what is the lineup going to be?

PG: Nelson
SG: Arenas
SF: Richardson
PF: Hedo
C: Dwight

?

Interesting I have to say.

The way Van Gundy uses his lineups, I think JRich is coming off the bench at either the 2 or the 3 to be their 6th man. Hedo goes back to his natural SF position, the same year they made the finals in 2009. Bass will start alongside Dwight.

[Batz]

Does this make the Magic better? Who starts at SF though?

No one can be sure about how they'll be. But just going off of predictions and 2k11... If you're not a magic fan GO INTO HIBERNATION.

And Hedo will most likely start at SF.

So, what is the lineup going to be?

PG: Nelson
SG: Arenas
SF: Richardson
PF: Hedo
C: Dwight

?

Interesting I have to say.

I don't know the deal with Jameer. No way can they start both Nelson and Arenas. That'll be worse than Jameer and Carter defensively.

And J-Rich will most likely be a instant bench scorer. Atleast that's what I would do.

At worst I think this deal probably solidifies the Magic as the third best team in the East. I like Arenas + Hedo more than VC & Lewis, but I'm still not sold that it's enough to get them by Miami or Boston.

With Gortat out, they're going to be really dependent on Dwight staying out of foul trouble. That could be a big problem, against Miami specifically.

They may match up better against Boston though. That Christmas day game should be interesting.

Agree with everything.

Wow, I was NOT expecting this when I woke up this morning. I'd say it's an even trade for PHX/ORL. Both get stronger at positions that have sorely needed a boost, though who is going to backup Dwight?

Who still thinks they'll deal Jameer before the deadline? I see it happening at some point in January.

PG: Arenas, Nelson, Duhon, Williams
SG: J-rich, Redick, (Arenas & Q-rich)
SF: Hedo, Q-rich
PF: Bass, Anderson, (Hedo)
C: Howard, Clark, Allen

That just screams we're not done trading yet.
Jameer Nelson just became the most obvious trading chip on the planet.

[EnoughSaid]

Line up should be:

Arenas
Richardson
Hedo
Bass
Howard

[alenleomessi]

If Magic someone can get Wallace with trading Nelson, they would be sick

I do have to say that this was a letdown in one respect; When I saw that Phoenix and Orlando had made a trade I was like "Holy Shit! Orlando got Steve Nash!!??"

[broy]

Isn't there a possibility to move Jameer for someone good who can play both 4 and 5? I think, Orlando has quite chance to do something like this.

[Batz]

Jeff if you haven't figured it out I fully covered both the trades. I think I deserve a thread title which mentions both.

hmm i think this helps my arenas fantasy stock
