A few months ago, I post a blog regarding my personal assessment on last year's NBA trade deadline.
Now, in this year, this thrilling event is one of the exciting part of the league after an extravagant All-Star. Many speculations happened for the sake of its franchise stability in terms of their finances. That is mostly occurred on this recent trade fiasco.
We will breaking down some teams which their latest roster shake-up might be a pass or fail in all parts of the public opinion's court.
1. Houston Rockets (B)
Their roster changes involving Marcus Morris to Phoenix Suns for 2013 second-round pick is a futuristic move obviously. Maybe their decision involve financial stability now they had a quite high-value players such as James Harden and Jeremy Lin.
On the other side, rookie forward Thomas Robinson would be a great addition for them although they give away their dominating big man Patrick Patterson. His youth and athleticism will define the current battle cry for this franchise.
It would take a time to see the effect of this swap. Do not judge the management yet.
2. Milwaukee Bucks (A-)
Their aspiration to acquire sweet shooter JJ Redick had already been fulfill. They giving away rookie Doron Lamb and veteran guard Beno Udrih and third-year foward Tobias Harris.
The presence of Redick will manifest their philosophy right now. His spot-up shooting will serve as a "kill" for its opponents. I'm sure with that.
Let us set aside for the meantime the Monta Ellis trade drama. It will not help for them.
3. Boston Celtics (C)
In my personal feeding of mind, Danny Ainge make a strategic planning in terms of acquiring young and fresh blood players. It was started by giving away the Brazilian veteran guard Leandro Barbosa and center Jason Collins to a shooter Jordan Crawford.
Crawford will be a reliever for the Celtics in terms of getting treys. This move will not be a good move but it will infuse youthfulness in backcourt now Rajon Rondo is gone for the season via ACL injury.
Off-season will be their good season and I expect big movement as per Ainge instruction.
