Thats a link to all the moves that have gone down, some very interesting moves and as a Laker fan I am happy that we finally get a capable starting pg, although it is sad to see Fish go.

What a steal for the Lakers. I was sure Cavs could get something better for Sessions

I feel for Camby.. He was against being traded to LAC... They did it... He got settled and begged not to be traded to Portland... They did it... He asked not to be traded from Portland... They did it! I feel for him as he wanted to stay in the one place for his kids.

Also has Portland really waived Oden? If so wow. Not shocking but very sad and almost the end of an era really. What could of been....

Just on some of the deals

- The Clippers flipping Cook and a 2nd for Young is a GREAT deal. Cook is f**king awful... Getting a sandwich for him is a GREAT deal
- Why would anyone trade for Jefferson? Will be cool to see Jackson back at the spurs
- Wallace could potentially be traded for the 4th pick which would be a huge steal for Portland.
- Sessions is alright but the best part for the lakers is no more Walton. I guess the quote from his dad about "being rich and living in LA" can now change to Cleveland... lol
- Barbosa is a underrated pick up for the Pacers considering it only cost them a 2nd rounder!! Niiiice
- Sam Young should give philly some toughness from the bench

Lacklustre deadline though.

Another year of the Dwight bullshit. So what do move do you think will have the biggest impact on the season? For me, its either Jackson or Sessions with Nick Young on the Clips as a Smokey. Nick Young gets bucketssss, shame thats all he does.

I don't really get the trade of Jefferson and 1st round pick for Stephen Jackson. Jefferson didn't really work out but we should be trading for youth.
Oh well, I have faith they know what they're doing.

I guess they figure that they'll be able to keep him in check? They were able to last time. Plus Jackon's contract is a year shorter than Jefferson.

Crazy day. Nene for McGee was the real head scratcher. I guess the Nuggets wanted to free up money to re-sign Chandler?

Pretty unhappy with trading away Fisher. While he has little value left in terms of basketball, I think his presence in the locker room is going to be sorely missed. Clearly was one of the team leaders, along with Kobe.

Glad that at least Pau didn't get traded. One of my favourite players to watch.

Also the Luke Walton era is over!!!

With all the movement, that's pretty handy.

The Nets acquiring Wallace seems to be a panic trade based of Dwight declining his ETO and staying for at least one more season.
