This trade is one of the most absolutely insane trades I have heard in recent years. I mean, I thought the Lakers acquisition of Gasol was crazy, this one blew my mind. Shaq is so far past his prime, it is silly and I liked the type of basketball the suns played. It was fast break, get down the court and pass type of ball and now they are going to have to slow down to wait for Shaq (if he can even play) to move his old bones down the floor. (See J.A. Adande's article on espn.com for more details of how bad this trade was here. I guess I should be happy because now the Suns are out of contention, but I am sad to see that type of basketball be abandoned like a cheap suit. Oh and on a side note, as of yesterday the Suns and Heat were denying a trade, Pat Riley went so far as to say it was impossible...I hate it when sports teams lie.
