No!!!

Take Andrea Bargnani, he has more potential! Toronto fits R.J better than the crappy Bucks.

Has that deal been offered? Again i wouldnt give up on Bargs for the same reason i would give up on Yi. I think people thinking they can duplicate what Boston did by adding name players are going to see that is a rare occasion for that too happen.

If Yi can put on 20 or so pounds and transform his game by developing some better back to the basket moves as opposed to a more face up game, New Jersey will be a force in a couple years.

Sean Williams can play C and Boone and Diop will be the backups at each spot.

The guy sort of screwed is Nenad Krstic, but NJ just doesnt trust his health.

This trade makes the Nets the front runners for the LeBron sweepstakes, getting rid of RJ's contract was their only chance and they did it

I doubt Diop stays a Net.

I don't know, South Beach will look pretty good with a max contract to offer and a chance to play with B-Easy and Wade :D

But I like this move for both teams. Bucks don't get rid of a pick and can still get Jefferson. The Nets get younger and get a chance at a 2010 FA.
