Cleveland's Finest Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 The Clippers have gotten so many quality players this season, and have given up barely anything. It's unbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 So I just realized that the Clippers can't trade their 1st this year since they dealt it last year and dealt the Minny 1st for CP3. Does that mean the pick in question is a 2nd? Clippers make out like bandits if that is the case. Young is a one dimensional chucker, but still, Cook and a 2nd for him? If the Wizards were clearly tanking or preserving cap space a la Toronto, it would make sense, but they took on Nene's huge deal which hurts both of those things. So what I gather the trade is: To Clippers: Young To Denver: McGee, Turiaf To Washington: Nene, Cook, Clippers 2nd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Chris Mannix @ChrisMannixSIThree-team deal that will send Nene to Washington, JaVale McGee to Denver and Nick Young to LAC is done, source involved in deal says. Woj says that the Nuggets also get Ronny Turiaf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChosenOne Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Why would Denver want to trade Nene when they just signed him? And knowing the fact the McGee wants 14 mil a year? Makes no sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes no sense to me. I guess they really regretted handing Nene that big contract so they moved him to take a chance on McGee and save money to resign Wilson Chandler.

fish7718 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 lol this deal makes just about no sense for any of the teams besides LAC, I guess both LA teams know how to work their trade partners over... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dash Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Michael Lee @MrMichaelLeeSource told me Nick Young was supposed to go to DEN, but Young declined to surrender "Bird rights." LAC served as facilitator for #wizards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
