Clippers get Reddick and Dudley
Suns get Bledsoe & Butler
Bucks get 2 2nd rounders
This makes me wonder WTF was grunwald thinking giveing up 2 players and 2 picks for camby?
Implications for KNicks with JR Smith and the Bucks if they let Monta Ellis walk.
Back court of Jennings and JR Smith?
Good luck with that. Don't really have to consider how they will fair in the playoffs will they?
Jennings is a certified chucker, that wont wont. thats about 46 shots between the 2 of them

I have heard this argument before.. but a lot of times teams are not willing to deal with someone from their own conference like that.
If the Knicks wanted Redick, it would have likely cost much more than 2 second rounders.
that's a really good trade for the clippers.
Great trade for clippers, but I'm not sure what the Suns plan is- they just signed Dragic to be their PG last season- don't see how he can play with Bledsoe. Wonder if they plan on moving Dragic.

that was MY though when I saw this trade this morning. Simply moving their talent to a different division. Surprised to see Reddick traded

Bledose is a 2 and will play with Dragic. Fantastic move for the Clippers, here.
Suns make this deal because Bledsoe is a young all-star so nobody should be comparing this the Bargnani deal.
For the Bucks, Redick is on his way out anyway so they pick up 2 picks for him.
Good move for everyone except Bledsoe, who now has to play for the Suns.

Bledsoe is not a 2, he's 6' 1

There is no 1...2....PG...SG
It's just guards and forwards. Thats the new NBA. Plus Bledsoe is a bull type guard, similar to Felton. He can guard bigger player. Drag is also taller than 6'1 I believe, so they can matchup against other guards. Or force other teams to play small ball.

dude he gave up a broken down camby and spot-up shooter. camby and novak don't come close to the level of players that were traded in that clips/bucks/suns deal...

The problem goes deeper then what we gave up to get rid of Camby and Novak. The real crime was what we gave up to get him.

That's what I meant, we gave up too much to get camby!
