NBA Trade Deadline Thoughts

1. Tracy McGrady needs to pull his head out of his ass.  He is a vastly talented individual whose ego wrote too big a check.  He presented himself as a savior and couldn't come through in Houston.  That is not the case now.  All he has to do is prove that he can still score the ball the last few months of the season.

2. The Cavs are officially a team now.  Antawn Jamison is an all-star caliber player, right now.  The Cavs now have their 3 studs, and Shaq is not one of them.  That's kind of serious for the rest of the East.

3. The trade the Celtics just made had better be for salary cap reasons because they just got worse.  Giddens and Walker both had the chance to be very good starters in the NBA.  Nate Robinson, as talented as he is, will never be more than a bench scorer.

4. I love love love, the moves that the Knicks made.  They upgraded themselves at every position except Center, where they had already made their moves over the past year.  They got explosive athletes, which is the key to their system, perhaps more than any other in the league.  Annnnnnd, they freed up 9 million in salary cap space.  Just think if T-Mac gets fired up and plays like himself.  this offense is perfect for him. 

5. The Suns will never get a fair trade for Amare.  Good for them for holding onto him.
