Knicks 0-2 since trade
Kings 0-2 since trade
Rockets 0-2 since trade
Cavs 0-3 since trade

Coincidence? I think not.

Hell yeah it's gonna be fun. While those teams are duking it out the Spurs will patiently be awaiting the lottery. We all know what happened the past two times.........

1-1 actually, because it doesn't count shit to beat a Whistle-less Miami Cheat and it even means less to get a win from such a eastern scrub as the Pacers IMHO. Beating Suns should be an encouraging event but still it doesn't mean anything positive with the trade, given the unsteady circumstances the Suns have been experiencing recently, especially the Amaré trade rumors. Even without doing this trade the mavs would probably still have got these wins they got.

Not a coincidence. Teams often take a little time to adjust to new additions.

It's a neat stat but not entirely surprising.

Rockets, Knicks and Kings are all building for next year. I'm sure they don't mind these losses.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the coaches are trying their best to lose. :lol

New York has tanked for 3 years now for this 2010 FA bonanza; this season means nothing. With a decent core + the #1 lotto pick + room for 2 max players; New York would be outrageously good.

The Jazz owns the Knicks pick this year, and the Rockets own their next two. I'd wager to say that the Knicks won't be accused of tanking anytime soon.

Do you think that they sign any big free agents?

Honestly, I don't see any of the "big name" free agents signing with a different team, unless it's through a sign & trade. If another team signs a player, they can only offer a max of 5 years while their current team can offer a 6 year deal. Couple that with the fact that the other team can only offer annual raises of 8%, and the current team can offer a 10.5% yearly raise.

Basically Lebron would be giving up like 30 million to sign with New York, which isn't gonna happen.

Dang, I looked that up.

That's an old ass pick and unprotected in 2010.

From what I understand, the Rocket picks are lotto protected.

the first pick is top 1 protected, and the next one is top 5.
