It's Joel Przybilla, Dante Cunningham, and two 1st round picks.

Ken Berger has picks right going to Charlotte for Wallace. I can't read a text message: Two future first-rounders for Wallace. [via Twitter]

We STAAAAAAAAAAAAACKED!!!
Great trade!
Lakers / Portland in the first is going to be epic
We are going to be really small tonight against Denver if Camby is still out.
R.I.P Lakers
Wallace is overrated, but this is a trade Portland needed to make, they needed another scorer that can create his own shot..they're pretty stacked right now..
you patellaaaaaaaaaad
Is Camby really going to make it back? Obviously it's a no brainer trade talent wise, but they really lack big men depth. Camby better get healthy and fast.
Roy needs to embrace being a 3rd option.
Camby/LA/Wallace/Roy/Miller
I just read that Sean Marks was part of the deal too.
So Aldridge is the temporary center since Camby and Oden are the only centers left and they're out.
Aldridge/Batum/Wallace/Matthews/Miller seems too small, IMO.
I have heard a lot of spurs fan echo this sentiment... and its ridiculous.
What trade could we have done? RJ and Anderson for Wallace? Dice, Splitter and Quinn for Wallace? Those trades work financially, but they put us on the hook for a player making 10mil this year and even more next year with no money to fill out our bench. The first option isn't viable, we would be left with a gaping hole at SF off the bench having to play Hill Neal or Manu more minutes at SF. The second trade is better, but we would have a big rotation of Duncan-Blair-Bonner for this years playoff run... and people already think we're too small. if Charlotte bought out Dice then I would be all for it, but why would they? I know its fun to just say "OMG other teams traded for people and my team did nothing!!1 I hate my life /wrist." But come on now, think it through.
I mean, the hornets just pulled off a steal to get Landry.
Marks isn't part of the deal, but he sucks so I wouldn't care anyway. Camby will be back any day. He doesn't like to play until he feels absolutely no pain and he's always been like that throughout his career. He had minor knee surgery so he'll be fine.

By Mike Cranston
Calling it a “stab in the back” and “slap in the face,” Gerald Wallace says he was blindsided by the Charlotte Bobcats’ decision to trade him last month.
Back in Charlotte Thursday for the first time since being sent to Portland, Wallace said he was told by coach Paul Silas hours before the trade deadline that he wouldn’t be dealt and “then I get home and bam, I’m traded.”
The last original member of the 7-year-old franchise and the team’s only All-Star, Wallace says he envisioned retiring as a Bobcat. Now he’s getting used to new teammates on a likely playoff-bound team in Portland.
Wallace says Friday’s game against his former team will be “emotional.”
I'm looking forward to this game. G-Dub is going to be very motivated!
