Wheelin’ Dealin’ with some NBA Basketball Trades

As football hysteria from both NFL Football and NCAA College Football fills our guts, silently, NBA Basketball teams are moving.

Yep, you read it, numerous NBA Basketball teams are getting busy for the coming NBA Basketball season. And in case you didn’t know it by now, Al Harrington has finally ended his sabbatical of sorts with the Atlanta Hawks and has rejoined his former team, the Indiana Pacers.

Yup, in my opinion, the Indiana Pacers seem to be the strongest team, in paper, with the kind of talent they acquired this offseason. Al Harrington leads a new bunch of Pacers that will be playing at the Conseco Fieldhouse, with Harrington will be the likes of Marquis Daniels, Darrell Armstrong, Josh Powell and Orien Greene.

The most intriguing of which is just how effective this tandem of Al Harrington and Marquis Daniels will be with Jermaine O’Neal patrolling the inside and Stephen Jackson shooting the lights out from the outside.

Scary.

As for MY Detroit Pistons, I guess you can say that these guys lost the most in the offseason. Of course, losing a Ben Wallace will do that to any team. However, Detroit Pistons general manager compensates with the addition of a solid big man in Nazr Mohammed and of course, I got excited when I heard Flip Murray will be a Piston once the new NBA Basketball season starts.

I know, Flip Murray is no impact player like a Ben Wallace but if he can bring the same 15-point production he did for the Cleveland Cavaliers when Larry Hughes went down then all is fine at the Palace of Auburn Hills.

Oh yeah, Stromile Swift is back with the Memphis Grizzlies, Shane Battier is now a member of the Houston Rockets and the Boston Celtics will be PACKED in the coming NBA Basketball season with the likes of Theo Ratliff, Brian Grant and Sebastian Telfair donning the Celtic Green.

Oh yeah, the Miami Heat resigned Alonso Mourning. Not that I give a flying you-know-what anyway.

Can the Miami Heat repeat as 2007 NBA Champions? Um… NO. But if you wanna know the odds to that, Sports Interaction has them. Check them out.

Detroit Pistons 7.50

Dallas Mavericks 6.50

San Antonio Spurs 5.50

Miami Heat 6.00
