If you have turned on ESPN in the last three weeks well then you have been bombarded with lame talk of these huge blockbuster deals that were going to put the Suns and Dallas over the top. In the last week first ballot hall of famers Shaquile O'Neal and Jason Kidd were traded from there respective ball clubs to the Western Conference. Well the two saviors had less than stellar debuts as both teams lost. Can ESPN please hold off on giving all this coverage to these two bad trades until both of these teams fizzle out of the playoffs. I mean I love Jason Kidd, but Devin Harris is going to be a 18 pt 7 assist guy for a long time in this league. Plus the Nets are clearing up the space needed to go after Lebron James in 2010. Throw on top of it they got two draft picks and this trade will be a bust for the Mavs. Well at least owner Mark Cuban will have this photo as well as his experience on dancing with the stars to look back on.
As for the Suns, oh the poor Suns, they get screwed last year in the playoffs and lose to the Spurs, now they resort to desperation picking up the big Aristotle. Essentially giving them one maybe two more years at a title shot. However as they got spanked by Lakers last night, it isnt going to matter.
Meanwhile to trades that went under the radar, the Lakers picking up Pau Gasol and the Spurs picking up Kurt Thomas, are huge for those two teams. My pick is Lakers vs the Spurs in the Western Conference finals. So in order Dirk, Nashy, Mark Cuban eat a dick!
