PHI-WAS

[Washington Wizards]

Philadelphia sends:


DeAndre Jordan (14,000,000)

Washington sends:


Nicolas Batum (14,000,000)
Mo Bamba (3.3, 3.4, 4.3, 5.7)

Had to finally dump Batum's contract, but at the cost of probably my only valuable prospect. Jordan should help to shore up the center spot, and should be cheaper if I decide to re-sign him next year. I approve

[Philadelphia 76ers]

I accept.

I'm probably higher on Bamba than most people but i'd rather take a chance on a young prospect than 1 year of Deandre Jordan.

[Minnesota Timberwolves]

I approve. DeAndre Jordan is a lot more useful than Batum at this point, so Wizards has that going for him, and Bamba is gonna be gridlocked out of big minutes for at least a couple of years. Still, he's got a lot more value than $3.3 million of cap space. This is a very nice trade for Philly.

[murg]

I approve. I think the real winner here is Philly. Both of these guys are coming out of contract soon, and aren't likely re-signs. Therefore, unless you really want to compete this year (then get Jordan), the winner is the guy who got the longer term prospect of Bamba.
