Trades galore today in the NBA, with C-Webb off to Philly, ‘Toine back in Boston(?!), Baron in Golden State, Big Dog to N’Orleans, Van Horn in Dallas, and the Knicks…well, they picked up Malik Rose, Mo Taylor, and a couple of picks, which, well, probably isn’t going to get the job done. But, then again, we didn’t give up much either (Nazr, Vin Baker, and Moochie). I’m just glad I’m not writing the checks.

Wheelin’ and Dealin’.
Removing the last vestiges of the Layden era, Knicks GM Isiah Thomas makes another big trade, sending Keith Van Horn to Milwaukee for Tim Thomas and Atlanta’s Nazr Mohammed. (We also gave up Michael Doleac and a second-round pick.) Hmm. True, Van Horn is inconsistent, but he’s been playing well lately…and better than Thomas. Still, Thomas and Mohammed are both athletic players, and this might end up turning out for the best if Isiah can light a fire under ’em. (As for reports that we’ll pick up a troubled Vin Baker off waivers, all I can say is, I hope not.)
