What a weekend in the NBA trade scenario! Some huge names landing a new home in the last 2 days. Lamar Odom landed with the very team that swept his Lakers last year in the playoffs the Dallas Mavericks. Say it ain't so!!! How and why? Well after having his neck on the chopping block with the Chris Paul trade "gone bad", a bad taste was left in his mouth so after that potential deal fell through, Odom felt as if he wasn't wanted and asked to be dealt, and the Mavs took advantage of his availability. The Lakers better do something quick, Kobe's not happy at all. So with Chandler gone and Lamar added, are the Mavs a better team? I think not. Now it looks like Chris Paul will be headed to LA after all....as a Clipper! In receiving Paul, the Clippers would be giving up Eric Gordon and Chris Kaman...is it just me or is that way too much to give up for Chris Paul? I mean he's a great PG but Eric Gordon is more than solid himself. CHris Paul lost a little explosiveness after the injury but is still able to run a team but its not like you're getting a young D. Rose or something. Not a good move for the Clippers. My main man David West is headed to the Indiana Pacers. D. West is a great pick up for any team looking to improve because he bring consistency to your post game on both ends. A very solid player all the way through. There's a lot more moving that will take place today and tomorrow, lets stay tuned!
