Memphis Grizzlies  2/19    Traded a protected first-round pick to Utah for Ronnie Brewer  The Grizz were able to nab Brewer for little because of the Jazz's luxury tax situation.  Unfortunately, Brewer won't help much for the playoff run since he has promptly tore his hamstring.  Going forward, however, he is a nice defender but might have the ugliest jumper for a shooting guard/small forward I've seen in recent years.  On Memphis, he can surely help because they don't need scorers and … [Read more...] about Transactions: 2/3-2/26 Part 2

Boston Celtics  2/19    Traded Eddie House, J.R. Giddens, Bill Walker, and a future conditional second-round pick to New York for Nate Robinson and Marcus Landry  As Boston tries to hold onto contender status, getting Nate for Eddie House is a clear upgrade.  Robinson is a better player in nearly every facet of the game and is even shooting threes about as well as House is this year. The net gain is not huge and doesn't change Boston's larger age/injury issues that seem to be conspiring to … [Read more...] about Transactions: 2/3-2/26 Part 1

Atlanta Hawks  1/5    Waived Othello Hunter 1/12   Signed Mario West to a 10-day contract 1/22   Signed Mario West to a  second 10-day contract 2/1     Signed Mario West for the rest of the season  West hasn't done much this season for the Hawks to remedy their short bench but he is a good athlete and a local guy.  The Hawks have also used West to fill out the bench the last few years too.  West's stats in college and in the pros show no indication that he's really pro level (his … [Read more...] about Transactions: 12/13-2/2

Golden State Warriors  11/20    Signed center Chris Hunter  Hunter is an NBDL call up for the Warriors.  He was a decent role player in college at Michigan but has scored quite well in the NBDL (19 ppg last year).  It's not clear how good he will be but an active and cheap big man in his mid-20s is always worth as look.  The Don Nelson Warriors are not the ideal place for a big man to break in but it is definitely better than playing in Fort Wayne.  New Jersey Nets  11/29    Fired … [Read more...] about Transactions: 11/18-12/8

Charlotte Bobcats  11/16    Traded Raja Bell and Valdimir Radmanovic to Golden State for Stephen Jackson and Acie Law  As dysfunctional as the Warriors may seem, the Bobcats have a good bit of weird in their moves too.  In this case, the Bobcats clearly win the talent exchange and there is a rational basis for the trade but something still seems odd here.  Jackson is pretty good all around player and better than Bell in most areas (except defensively).  In exchange for getting the better … [Read more...] about Transactions: 9/23-11/17

Phoenix Suns  7/13    Signed Channing Frye 7/20    Signed Steve Nash to a two-year contract extension 9/15    Waived Sasha Pavlovic  As we mentioned in the Dallas comments last week, point guards tend not to age well.  On the bright side, most of the ones who have aged well have done so in recent years, a good indicator for Nash.  Indeed, despite all the talk of Nash's durability years ago, he hasn't missed more than 12 games in a season since 1999-00.  The stat line has gone down a … [Read more...] about Transactions 7/10-9/22 Part III
